Jōraku-ji, Buddhist temple in Kakogawa, Japan
Jōraku-ji temple stands as one of the largest religious structures in Hyogo Prefecture, featuring multiple halls and traditional Buddhist architecture.
Founded in 589 CE by Korean monk Eben seeking refuge from the Mononobe clan, the temple received support from Prince Shotoku after the clan's defeat.
The temple contains five sacred Buddhist statues within its main hall, which are displayed to the public only once every sixty years.
The Shinyakushi-do section of the temple remains open throughout the year, allowing visitors to view the permanent Yakushi Nyorai statue display.
The Taishi-do building, constructed in 1112, maintains its position as the most ancient surviving architectural structure in Hyogo Prefecture.
