The temple of Narita-San Sensoji was built around the statue of the deity Fudo myo O – one of defenders of the people from the demons. She was in the capital city of Kyoto and was installed in the temple Takao-San Jinguji. In 939 monk named Kanji with this statue was sent to the area where he was raised a rebellion against the Emperor, to pacify the rebels. Within three weeks he prayed and performed the rite of the fire sacrifice (Homa), and on the last day of the mutiny. Monk began packing for the trip, but failed to move the statue, as it became heavier and more – so About Fudo myo himself chose the place for a new Church, which was built on the orders of the Emperor, and Kunze became its first Abbot.

Today, the temple of Narita-San is a cultural treasure of Japan and one of the main Buddhist temples of Shingon. The temple complex includes several smaller temples and pagodas, a Shinto Shrine built in honor of the goddess of rice and fertility Inari, on the temple grounds there is a garden with an artificial waterfall and three ponds. Overlooking one of the ponds, stands the building of the Museum.

One of the smaller temples dedicated to the goddess-the patroness of the arts, learning and children Benzaiten, which is portrayed as beautiful women with musical instruments or arms. To a three-tiered pagoda of Sanzu-Noto staircase leads from 53 degrees on either side of it are the many images of Fudo myo O. The pagoda was built in 1712 and is an example of architecture of the Edo period. Inside it are stored five Buddha statues gochi Nyorai. Near the pagoda is a hall of all sutras Issikii, which houses the library. Shelves of sacred texts in it form an octagonal drum. To the right of the hall is an 18-meter high bell tower, which contains a bell weighing more than a ton. It hit three times in the day when the monks are praying about the world. On the territory of the temple was also built in the early XX century hall of Prince Shotoku, in which 594 year declared Buddhism the official religion of Japan and contributed to its active dissemination.
