Overview.
The term "magaibutsu" () refers to a Buddhist figure carved directly into a natural rock faces or cliffside. The Jigokudani Stone Buddhas are located in a national forest several hundred meters southeast of the Kasugayama Stone Buddhas, which has a separate National Historic Site designation. The statues are carved into a niche in a southwest-facing tuff rock wall. The niche has an opening of 3.9 meters, a depth of 2.9 meters, and a height of 2.4 meter, and contains six Buddha statues carved into the back and both side walls. The back wall is 1.7 meters high, with a central frame of 1.7 by 1.12 meters, and a seated Shaka Nyōrai Buddha statue in a cross-legged position on a double lotus throne. The statue appears to have been painted and traces of gold leaf remain. To the left of the main Buddha statue is a statue of Yakushi Nyōrai with a double circular halo, and on the right side is a standing image of Jūichimen Kannon. On the right wall is an image of Nyōirin Kannon and on the right wall are images of Amida Nyōrai and a Senjū Kannon. 
The carving date from the late Nara period to early Heian period, except for the Jūichimen Kannon, which was a later Muromachi period addition. There is an unsubstantiated legend that the site was a quarry which supplied the material for the foundation stones for the buildings at Tōdai-ji. The site is approximately four kilometers by mountain trail southeast of Tōdai-ji, or 9.2 kilometers (24 minutes) by car.
