Edo Sanjūsangen-dō, Buddhist temple hall in Fukagawa, Japan.

The wooden structure features traditional Japanese architecture with curved roofs, sliding doors, and elevated foundations designed for natural ventilation.

Built in 1643 during the Tokugawa period, the temple hall served as a religious center and demonstrated the architectural achievements of its time.

The hall contains multiple Buddhist statues and reflects the influence of Zen Buddhism on Japanese architectural design during the Edo period.

The building incorporates interlocking wooden frames instead of nails, making it resistant to earthquakes and other natural phenomena.

The interior space utilizes movable fusuma panels that allow for flexible room configurations during different ceremonies and events.
