Todai Ji Temple Nara sightseeing is absolutely the world heritage Todai Ji Temple. The first point of view is a huge rousenbutsu Buddha, which is known as' the Great Buddha of Nara ', and everyone is taken away by its overwhelming size and merciful expression. The Great Buddha Hall where the Great Buddha is placed is the largest wooden structure in the world, and the magnificent scale engraved in 1300 year history, such as the powerful NiO statue which can be seen in the South daimon gate.
Located in the entrance of kofuku Ji Temple, the scenery of the five storied pagoda is the symbol of ancient capital and Nara. This temple, which flourished as the temple of the Fujiwara clan, is also called 'the treasure house of national treasure,' and the 'Asura statue,' which is enshrined in the national treasure hall, attracts many people with its delicate and beautiful expression. It is close to the city and is the perfect spot for the beginning of the history walk.
It is the main spot of Nara sightseeing which is adjacent to the world heritage site such as Todai Ji Temple, kofuku Ji Temple, Kasuga Taisha shrine, and so on. The most attractive is about 1200 wild deer, which are also designated as national natural monuments. It is possible to enjoy the experience that can be done only here with a friendly deer and a fist, and "deer Senbei". It is a vast park area where the rich nature and the history harmonize.
Kasuga Taisha shrine is a world heritage that has over 1300 years of history and mysterious air surrounded by the original forest. The scenic beauty of the shrine building, which is made of vivid yellow paint, and about 3000 lanterns arranged along the pavement or corridor is breathtaking. Why don't you spend a quiet time in the lush sanctuary where you can meet deer who have been protected as "God's usage."
Yakushi Ji Temple is a world heritage site known for its health prayer. The vivid vermilion and blue shrine building which attracts the first eye is called "ryugu zukuri" because of its beauty. The only remaining "East Tower" from 1300 years ago and the reconstructed "Tower of the West pagoda" is a masterpiece, and it is also popular as a place to spend a calm time through the Sutra Sutra experience.
Toshodai Ji Temple is a world heritage site opened by a high priest, Ganjin (Buddhist priest), who came across Japan after suffering hardships in the period of China and Tang. The "Golden Hall" which conveys the appearance of the tenpyo era is carrying out the majestic and calm beauty. The quiet time in the precinct is the famous moment of the feeling of ancient city and Nara where the moist garden and historical architecture harmonize.
Heijo Palace site 1300 years ago, it was the center of Japan's capital, Heijo Kyo. The gorgeous gorgeous "daigokuden" and "Suzaku mon gate" have once passed the prosperity of the former capital. It is a special spot where the Kintetsu train runs through the building, and it is a special spot which can enjoy the historical romance and open air at the same time.
