The List of National Treasures of Japan (temples) contains all the structures (建造物 kenzōbutsu?) that have been designated by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of the government of Japan as National Treasures in the temple (寺院 jiin?) category. This includes Main Halls (Butsuden (仏殿?), Hondō (本堂?) and Kondō (金堂?)), pagodas, Belfries (鐘楼 shōrō?), corridors, other halls and structures that are part of a temple. In total there are 152[nb 1] structures.

The list is limited to New National Treasures, those that have been designated since June 9, 1951 after the Law for the Protection of Cultural Properties came into force. Lists of other (new) National Treasures of Japan can be found in List of National Treasures of Japan.
