Jōdo-ji, Buddhist temple in Ono, Japan

The Jodo-ji temple features the Jodo-do hall, built in the Daibutsu architectural style, housing a 5.3-meter-tall Amida Triad statue inside.

Founded in 1190, the temple was reconstructed by Chogen, who moved it to its current location and renamed it from Hiroto-ji to Jodo-ji in 1194.

The temple contains multiple National Treasures, including the Jodo-do hall and the Amida Triad statue created by master sculptor Kaikei during the Kamakura period.

Visitors can access the temple from 9:00 to 17:00, with shorter hours from October to March, and entrance fees are 500 yen for adults.

The temple grounds include 3,000 hydrangea plants of 20 different varieties, creating colorful pathways during the blooming season.
