Futai-ji

The house of worship was opened by Ariwara no Narihira in 847, known as the author of the Tales of Ise. The church was made over a office where it was formerly a mansion of Narihira's grandfather, former Emperor Heizei. The main hall abode a Shō-kannon (聖観音) (a form of Avalokiteśvara or Guan Yin) buddha image as its primary adore object, surrounded by five Myo-O, as well as a fine Shinto shrine also interior the same building.
