+ | Note: In Japanese locations, the suffix "shi" indicates a city name, and "cho" indicates a town. The suffix "ken" indicates a prefecture. For example: The temple site Todaiji (or Todai-ji) is located in the city of Nara, Japan, which may be written as Nara-shi to differentiate it from Nara prefecture, or Nara-ken. The suffix "ji" in Todaiji denotes that it is a temple. See also: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_names_in_Japan]] | ||
