What is a shrine
Zushi is the name of a box-shaped furniture with a door that enshrines and stores important things such as Buddha statues and scriptures.
In a broad sense, it is also one of the furnishings for living that can be used to store personal items such as books, stationery, and cosmetics, as well as furniture and fixtures.
Many of the furnishings, including zushi, came to Japan from mainland China and the Korean Peninsula, and gradually came to be made in Japan. It can be said that the Zushi, which was introduced with Buddhism in the Asuka period, for enshrining Buddha statues and scriptures, is the prototype of what is generally called "Zushi" today.
Like the Tamamushi Zushi at Horyuji Temple, a shrine with a roof that imitates a temple hall is a representative shrine related to Buddhism. (Sekishitsubunkanboku no Onzushi) is said to be a representative of Zushi as a furnishing item.
