Byodo-in Temple

The Byodo-In Temple (Japanese: 平等院テンプル, Byōdōin Tenpuru) is a non-denominational Buddhist temple located on the island of Oʻahu in Hawaiʻi in Valley of the Temples Memorial Park. It was dedicated in August 1968 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first Japanese immigrants to Hawaiʻi. The temple is a replica of a 900-year-old Buddhist temple at Uji in Kyoto Prefecture of Japan, the latter being established in 1052.
