Kofukuji Temple (興福寺), Nara City, Japan
西国観音巡礼 第 ９ 番 南円堂 興福寺
Kofukuji Temple, also sometimes known as Nan-en-do, is a temple located in Nara City. It is one of the temples, technically outside the Nara Park, closer to the JR Nara Station, hence one of the first temples you will encounter on the way to Nara Park.
Kofukuji Temple boasts a majestic five storied pagoda and a sprawling temple precincts. One of the main halls was under remodeling when I visited there, but I was able to video most of the items in the precincts.
Kofukuji is temple #9 in the Saikoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage circuit of Western Japan.
Hope you enjoy!!!

Sofukuji Temple, Nagasaki - 崇福寺●長崎市 - Japan As It Truly Is
Sofukuji temple is often overlooked in the stampede for Peace Park and Glover Garden, but really shouldn't be. It looks a bit weathered because it is - a 1629 Ming Dynasty Zen temple and one of the finest examples of architecture from its period - even in China there are few surviving places that surpass it. Its existence testifies to the presence and influence of the Chinese residents in Nagasaki. It's closest to the Shokaku-ji or Shianbashi streetcar stops.

Koshibyo, Nagasaki Confucian Temple - 長崎市の孔子廟 - Japan As It Truly Is
Koshibyo is a gem that's sadly neglected and overlooked by so many tourists and guidebooks on Nagasaki, it's really a tragedy.
Koshibyo is the only Confuscian shrine made by Chinese outside of China, and the land it's on, like embassies and consulates, is considered Chinese territory. It was established in 1893, and behind it you can see the Historical Museum of China. It's located very close to the Ouratenshudo-shita streetcar station、and is a must-see sight.

KOFUKUJI-Temple
興福寺 KOFUKUJI Nara Temple
Japan Travel: Kofukuji Temple one of four greatest temples of Nara Period, Nara20
Japan Travel: Kofukuji Temple one of four greatest temples of Nara Period, Nara20
Kofukuji Temple used to be the family temple of the Fujiwara, which is the most powerful family clan over much of the Nara and Heian Periods. The temple was founded in Nara at the same time as the capital foundation in 710. At the height of Fujiwara domination, the temple consisted of over 150 buildings.
Today there remain a couple of buildings of great historic importance, including a five story pagoda and a three story pagoda. The five story pagoda is 50 meter tall, ranking second in Japan, after the five story pagoda at Kyoto's Toji Temple with only seven meter gap. Kofukuji's pagoda is both a landmark and symbol of Nara. It was first built in 730, and most recent reconstruction was done in 1426.
While addmission to Kofukuji's temple grounds is free and it can be entered around the clock, there are two areas that require addmission fee: Kofukuji's National Treasure Museum and the Eastern Golden Hall. The National Treasure Museum, recently renovated, exhibits part of the temple's great art collection and is something that must not miss out on for lovers of Buddhist art. Among the many outstanding exhibits, the three-faced, six-armed Ashura Statue is one of the most renowned Buddhist statues in all of Japan.
Hours: 9:00 to 17:00 (National Treasure Museum and Eastern Golden Hall)
Closed: Opened all year round.
