Buddhist hall; enshrinement hall; temple hall
A hall within a Buddhist temple complex where a buddha image is enshrined; not a standalone temple.
In this temple's main hall, an Amida Buddha statue is enshrined.
Usually prefixed with お (お御堂) when referring to a Catholic cathedral or church building.
There is Mass at the cathedral on Sundays.
Compound of 御 (honorific prefix) and 堂 (hall). Originally a Buddhist term for a hall enshrining a buddha image; later applied to Christian cathedrals by analogy.
