Zao Hall of Kinpusenji Temple
The main hall and National Treasure of Kinpusenji Temple. There are any statues like the three Zao Gongen statues enshrined at the temple. This hall is multistoried, reaching a height of 34 meters, and features a East Asian hip-and-gable roof. The impressive size is balanced by elegant architecture that makes this building a highly-regarded example of temple construction. (Image provided by Nara Visitors Bureau)
