Kofukuji Temple
[Famous five-story pagoda]
The temple grounds are dotted with National Treasures such as the famous five-story pagoda, three-story pagoda, Tokondo (East Golden Hall) and Hokuendo (North Octagonal Hall), but also houses prominent Buddhist carvings from the Tenpyo (710-794) and Kamakura (1185-1333) periods. Next to the temple grounds is Nara Park, a unique example of a city park where residents and 1,400 deer can coexist peacefully.
