 Gangoji (Nara Prefecture)
Gangoji moves to Heijokyo Asuka-dera built in Asuka as first temple in Japan.
Now, although the remaining buildings are only Gokuraku-bo and a room for Zen contemplation, the tile of the Asuka period is mixed with a part of roof.

 Marukawara and hirakawara  A red tile
The tile doctor of Kudara tells Japan that he transmitted the tile, and will be in it in 588. The building using a tile in Japanese construction was most until Nobunaga Oda built Azuchi Castle. The red tile of the Asuka period remains in the backside in front of Gokuraku-bo of Gangoji. What piled up especially Marukawara is called the "Gyokibuki" from the method of the fukikata.
