Horyuji Temple
Ikaruga, Japan
Treasures in the Yumedono include an important Kudara Kannon (left), and a superb lacquerware statue of monk Gyoshin (right). Kudara just means "from Korea," an important source of cultural influence during this period. Gyoshin Sozu is the monk who erected the building in 739.
