The Gangō-ji was founded by Umako Soga in 588 in Asuka, when Buddhism had just appeared in the country. Part of the temple was transferred to Nara in 718, but its pagoda was burned by lightning in 1196. The temple was one of the main ones in the city along with Tōdai-ji and Kōfuku-ji. It is not as famous today, but it is nice to visit, especially for the Contemplation Hall. The complex has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1998, and is easily accessible as part of a walk in Naramachi.
