Yakushido, Former Buddha of Healing Hall 薬師堂

Official explanation

This is the oldest of the former main halls of Naritasan Shinshoji Temple. Built in 1655, it was moved to its current location outside the temple grounds in 1855. It was at this hall that the famous Edo period (1603–1867) Kabuki actor Danjuro Ichikawa I prayed for a child. His son was born soon after. In 1969 the city of Narita designated Yakushido a Tangible Cultural Property.
