[edit]

Add last part of the following sentence:

The prince Shotoku constructed this temple in 593, using the construction firm Kongō Gumi, whose artisans were immigrants from Baekche, one of Three Kingdoms of Korea.

Seconded, details should be on the Kongo Gumi page. Also important is: Prince Shotoku lead a massive national project to popularize Buddhism in Japan and commissioned the construction of Shitenno-ji. He invited 3 carpenters from Baekje to bring knowledge (expertise) for the construction of Shitenno-ji. The construction of Shitteno-ji was a big project and many people were involved (construction workers, artisans etc). - Artanisen (talk) 15:08, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Zen garden missing

[edit]

On the Zen garden page, Shitennō-ji is listed as having a Zen garden yet there is no mention (or photo) on the page, as there are on other temple pages. Can someone remedy this? Meanwhile I have added it to Category:Zen gardens in the expectation that such info will appear. DadaNeem (talk) 00:58, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
