Taima-dera (當麻寺) is a Buddhist temple in Nara, Japan built originally in 612 by the Imperial Prince Maroko, the brother of Prince Shotoku. The temple was moved to its present location in 681 by the grandson of Prince Maroko, and served as the head temple, or ''honzan'' (本山) of the Hosso sect. The temple's main object of veneration is the Yakushi, but the most popular attraction is the Taima Mandala, a graphical representation of the Pure Land, and pilgrimage site for Pure Land Buddhists. == See also == *List of National Treasures of Japan (temples) *List of National Treasures of Japan (crafts-others) *List of National Treasures of Japan (sculptures) *For an explanation of terms concerning Japanese Buddhism, Japanese Buddhist art, and Japanese Buddhist temple architecture, see the Glossary of Japanese Buddhism. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Taima-dera」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
