About the
Japanese Religion Image Collection

The Japanese Religion Image database contains approximately 240 images of the material and ritual aspects of Japanese religion. Geographic coverage at present is focused on temples and shrines in Hyogo, Nara, Mie, and Wakayama prefectures. A large portion of the collection is devoted to the Koyasan monastery complex.

The photos in this collection were taken by Colorado College Professor of Religion David Gardiner.
