Description
Pagodas in Japan are called tō (塔 lit. pagoda), sometimes buttō (仏塔 lit. Buddhist pagoda) or tōba (塔婆 lit. pagoda) and historically derive from the Chinese pagoda, itself an interpretation of the Indian stupa.Pagodas are quintessentially Buddhist and an important component of Japanese Buddhist temple compounds but, because until the Kami and Buddhas Separation Act of 1868, a Shinto shrine was normally also a Buddhist temple and vice versa, they are not rare at shrines either.
