DescriptionSeiryoji, affectionately known as Saga Shakado, enshrines a standing Shaka Nyorai as the principal image of its Shakado Hall. The statue is revered as the “Living Shaka,” traditionally believed to reproduce the appearance of Shakyamuni during his lifetime, and became the model for the Seiryoji-style Shaka images. In the gentle atmosphere of Sagano, visitors can experience the depth of Shaka devotion transmitted to Japan and a quiet sense of purity.
