DescriptionEisanji’s Main Hall enshrines a seated Yakushi Nyorai designated an Important Cultural Property as its principal image. Preserved at an old temple overlooking the Yoshino River, Yakushi is less a spectacular object than a quiet focus of prayer for people facing illness and anxiety. The National Treasure octagonal hall in the grounds also preserves the temple’s long history from the Nara period, reinforcing the calm atmosphere of Yakushi devotion.
