Plans to construct the temple were announced 9 August 1975, and Spencer W. Kimball, president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from 1973 to 1985, dedicated the Tokyo Japan Temple 27 October 1980. The temple serves Latter-day Saints in northern Japan and Vladivostok, Russia.

The 52,590-square-foot temple’s exterior is structural steel and reinforced concrete faced with 289 panels of precast stone, having the appearance of light gray granite.

Currently, there are more than 20 temples in various stages of construction or have been announced throughout the world.
