Located just north of Hokke-do in the Todai-ji Temple complex, Nigatsu-do is known as a place where Shuni-e (Omizu-tori or Sacred Water-drawing Festival) takes place every March. Nigatsu-do was named so since Shuni-e was held in February (nigatsu in Japanese) in the old calendar. Fire destroyed it in 1667, but two years later the current building was reconstructed exactly as it was before the fire. The building's design features a cascading style of architecture, and provides a commanding view of the roof of the Great Buddha Hall and Nara city. The principal image is the Juichimen Kannon, which is never shown to the public.

This is a Japanese restaurant in a hotel, where a talented master chef prepares the dishes. If you visit the restaurant for lunch, be sure to try the Yamato nabe gozen (2,400 JPY) that's served in a small pot for one person. The Yamato nikudori (chicken) and Yamato imo (Japanese slimy potato) fried dumplings are stewed in the soup made of chicken stock with soy milk and cow's milk, providing the delicious, mild taste that will keep you coming back for more.
