The three Buddha statues enshrined in the main hall, the principal image of the temple, the seated Dainichi Nyorai, the seated Shaka Nyorai, and the seated Yakushi Nyorai, are all important cultural properties (formerly national treasures) made in the late Heian period. The principal image in particular is a gigantic statue of nearly 3 meters, full of dignity, and is affectionately known locally as the "Cape Great Buddha." All three statues were severely damaged over the years, so they were repaired over a period of about four years, and to commemorate the completion of the repairs, they will be open to the public for the first time since the repairs, free of charge.
