Beneath the facade of prosperity, however, lay a society plagued by political unrest and infectious diseases. In the face of this societal unrest, the locals turned to worship of gods and the Buddha as they prayed for a peaceful life. In this exhibition, you can take a closer look at some of these artifacts from the seventh to eighth century, ranging from rituals dating back to the Kofun period, as well as Buddhism, which had only then just become a national religion.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub7.jpg?resize=1000%2C751&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"751\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-133836\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub7.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub7.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub7.jpg?resize=768%2C577&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><em>\u571f\u99ac \u5948\u826f\u6642\u4ee3\u30fb8\u4e16\u7d00 \u5de6\uff1a\u4e5d\u5dde\u56fd\u7acb\u535a\u7269\u9928 \u53f3\uff1a\u4e5d\u5dde\u6b74\u53f2\u8cc7\u6599\u9928<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub5_jpg.jpg?resize=1002%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1002\" height=\"1024\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-133840\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub5_jpg.jpg?resize=1002%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1002w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub5_jpg.jpg?resize=293%2C300&amp;ssl=1 293w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub5_jpg.jpg?resize=768%2C785&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub5_jpg.jpg?resize=1502%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1502w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sub5_jpg.jpg?w=1518&amp;ssl=1 1518w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><em>\u56fd\u5b9d \u68b5\u9418 \u98db\u9ce5\u6642\u4ee3\u30fb7\u4e16\u7d00 \u89b3\u4e16\u97f3\u5bfa<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 6\/2 (Tue.) ~ 8\/30 (Sun.)<br \/>\n\u2022 9:30~17:00 (Last entry: 16:30)<br \/>\n\u2022 Closed: Mon.
