Otagi Nenbutsu-ji Temple

Otagi-Nenbutsu-ji is a temple of the Tendai branch of Japanese Buddhism, located at the foot of Mount Atago, in Arashiyama moutains in the west of Kyoto. Its notoriety is due to the 1,200 Buddha’s disciples’ statues crafted by amateurs from all over Japan during the temple’s renovation in the 1980s, under the supervision of monk and sculptor Kocho Nishimura.
