Kohfuku-ji

Kohfuku-ji is a historic Buddhist temple complex in Nara, famous for its striking five-story pagoda and the National Treasure Museum. Originally the family temple of the powerful Fujiwara clan, it offers a deep dive into 8th-century Buddhist art, including the iconic, multi-armed Ashura statue. Visitors can wander the open grounds to admire the restored Central Golden Hall and historic architecture alongside Nara's famous roaming deer.
