Horyuji Yumedono (Dream Hall)

Horyuji Yumedono (Dream Hall)

Horyuji is a monastery temple located in the town of Ikaruga, some distance north of the Asuka region, Nara Prefecture. Originally it was a modest temple said to have been built in the early 7th century by order of Prince Shotoku, the prince regent, whose palace, Ikaruga no Miya, was being erected nearby. In time Horyuji was enlarged into a monastery famous for Buddhist studies, especially the doctrines of the Hosso Sect. Yumedono (Dream Hall) was buit on the site of Shotoku's chapel. According to legend, the prince was instructed by a golden being who appeared to him in a dream.
