Nara, Yaku-shi-ji Temple (Japan)

Yakushi-ji is one of the most famous imperial and ancient Buddhist temples in Japan, and was once one of the Seven Great Temples of Nanto, located in Nara. The temple is the headquarters of the Hossō school of Japanese Buddhism.  So while it might be true for those of us who don’t do our homework, here’s proof that not all temples are Shinto.  Unused postcard from mid-20th century.  Grade: 1
