DescriptionThe Kondō (Golden Hall) of Jingo-ji, deep in the mountains of Takao, enshrines the Yakushi Triad centered on a National Treasure standing image of Yakushi Nyorai (the Medicine Buddha). Its powerful, austere expression inspires a sense of awe and reflects the rigorous spirit of mountain Buddhism. Reached after a long ascent of stone steps, the hall brings together the stillness of an ancient mountain temple and prayers for healing and protection from calamity.
