Shakamuni and Shinran
Ryukoku Museum was established in April in 2011 to introduce Buddhism with a wide perspective from the roots of Buddhism in India to the development of Buddhism in Japan. This exhibition features Gautama Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, and priest Shinran who brought Buddhism to the ordinary Japanese people in the 13th century. GTK would also like to recommend that you
see restored images from the Bezeklik Cave Temples, which are speculated to have been painted in the 10th century in Uyghur.
