Treasure House
The Treasure House is the repository for approximately 30,000 artifacts dating back 1,250 years, including one National Treasure (a group of 59 handscrolls), 51 Important Cultural Properties, and seven Important Art Objects. The gallery holds regular exhibits of about 50 artifacts at a time, in addition to special exhibitions. The Treasure House was built in 1984 on the site of the former Honbo, which was the abbot’s residence and the main administrative quarters of the temple.
