Buddhist House is a three-story accommodation facility built in 1988 on
the Shakado premises. As a sacred place associated with Buddha, Bodhgaya
attracts pilgrims from around the world who follow in the footsteps of
Buddha. However, while Buddhist House was still under construction, the
area did not have enough hotels or other accommodations suitable for pilgrims.
Consequently, in response to local requests,
Daijokyo opened Buddhist House to accommodate up to about 100 visitors. The House even serves simple Japanese meals upon guest request.
Staff members of Buddhist House are all Indian nationals, capable of speaking English and Japanese. For reservations, please contact either the House directly or the Administrative Office of Daijokyo Sohonzan Temple.
