There are four groups of 61 stone Buddhas (maku-butsu) carved into tuff rock walls during the Heian-Kamakura period, including the Sannoyama Stone Buddha and the Hokishiki Buddha First Group (Dogasako Stone Buddha), all of which were designated as national treasures. The ancient stone buddha group, which represents the Usuki stone buddha, is also referred to as the Three Buddha of the Old Garden, and consists of a total of thirteen bodies, including the statue of the Bodhisattva and the statue of the Ming king, making up a magnificent mandala. The quality and number are overwhelming, such as the second group of Hokiishi Buddha, whose heart is at ease with a rounded and meek expression. It is also nice that there is a free guide to the stone Buddha by a volunteer guide with reservations up to 3 days in advance.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":220875,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-290868","travelpost","type-travelpost","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spot"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":8}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/290868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/travelpost"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/290868\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/220875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=290868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=290868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=290868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
