Traditional and prestigious Japanese style architecture

Nara, Japan - November 28, 2015: Todaiji is one of Japan's most famous and historically significant temples and a landmark of Nara. The temple was constructed in 752 as the head temple of all provincial Buddhist temples of Japan and grew so powerful that the capital was moved from Nara to Nagaoka in 784 in order to lower the temple's influence on government affairs. Todaiji's main hall, the Daibutsuden (Big Buddha Hall) is the world's largest wooden building, despite the fact that the present reconstruction of 1692 is only two thirds of the original temple hall's size. The massive building houses one of Japan's largest bronze statues of Buddha (Daibutsu). The 15 meters tall, seated Buddha represents Vairocana and is flanked by two Bodhisattvas.

$Okayama, Japan - April 11, 2024: Kōraku-en (後楽園, Kōrakuen) is a Japanese garden located in Okayama, Okayama Prefecture. \nThis building was originally part of a villa in Okayama belonging to a high-ranking vassal until 1888 when it was relocated to the garden. It was destroyed during the Second World War but faithfully rebuilt in 1961, and on that occasion renamed from Rikyū-dō (“House of Rikyū”) in honor of Sen no Rikyū, the ultimate esthete of the tea ceremony, to Chaso-dō (“House of the Forefathers of Tea”) to both Rikyū and Yōsai (or Eisai), the Okayama-born Zen Buddhist priest said to have brought tea farming and drinking practice from China to Japan.$
