Description

The white Buddha relic pagoda of Nipponzan Myohoji stands on a mountain above Ushizu. Golden images of Shaka Buddha on its four sides depict his birth, enlightenment, first sermon, and passing into nirvana. Although the pagoda interior is closed, visitors can remove their shoes, change into the provided footwear, and ascend the outer gallery to view the images at close range. Built as a monument to world peace, the pagoda also overlooks the Saga Plain.
