| Around those days, the temple was divided into three temples: 'Gokuraku-in Temple' enshrining Chiko Mandala, 'Gango-ji Temple Kannon-do Hall (a temple dedicated to Kannon)' developing around the Five-Storied Pagoda, and 'Shoto-in Temple.' |
この頃を境に、寺は智光曼荼羅を祀る「極楽院」、五重塔を中心とする「元興寺観音堂」、それに「小塔院」の3つの寺院に分裂した。 |
