Tōmyō-ji, Buddhist temple in Yamatokoriyama, Japan
Tōmyō-ji contains multiple structures including a main hall, lecture hall, and a five-story wooden pagoda located within its religious complex.
Prince Toneri established Tōmyō-ji in 693 CE during a period when Buddhism spread through Japan under imperial support and guidance.
The temple maintains a collection of 21 statues representing religious figures in the Kodo Lecture Hall for teaching Buddhist principles.
Visitors can access the temple grounds through public transportation routes with directional signs leading to the entrance.
The temple's five-story wooden pagoda, reconstructed in 1644 after multiple fires, holds the status of National Treasure of Japan.
