The Tenpyo culture flourished in this area during the Nara Period, mainly during the Tenpyo period (729-749) of Emperor Shomu. Heavily influenced by the Tang culture brought by the Japanese envoys to Tang, many Buddhist arts flourished, including the architecture and Buddhist statues that were designated as world heritage sites or national treasures. Now, why don't you feel the breath of the people of that time, transcending the time of 1,300 years?
Horai Hot Spring is said to have been visited by the "Fushimi no Okina" (the old man of Fushimi), who remains in the geological history, to bathe in the hot spring. As the phrase "Treasure Comes" implies, the hot spring gradually relieves the fatigue of the Yamato Road (paths in the province of Yamato).
