Description

Horyuji’s Yumedono Hall enshrines the standing Guze Kannon Bosatsu. Traditionally said to represent Prince Shotoku, the image was protected for centuries as a secret Buddha, a history that gives it a distinctive mystery. Standing within the quiet octagonal hall, it conveys less splendor than the depth of prayer preserved across the ages. Even within Horyuji, this is a Buddhist spot where nobility and stillness are especially pronounced.
