Hokkiji Temple Description
The Hokkiji Temple can be reached from Nara by a train from the Kinetsu-Nara Station. This was founded in 638 by a priest named Fukuryo, who thus fulfilled the last wish of Shotoku-taishi (574-622). It is also known as the Okamoto Temple, after the site of Shotoku-taishi's palace where the temple was built. The three-story pagoda, dating from 685, is in the style of the Early Nara period.
