Tōshōdai-ji (唐招提寺) is a Buddhist temple of the Risshū sect in the city of Nara, in Nara Prefecture, Japan. The Classic Golden Hall, also known as the ''kondō'', has a single story, hipped tiled roof with a seven bay wide facade. It is considered the archetype of "classical style." It was founded in 759 by the Tang dynasty Chinese monk Jianzhen during the Nara period. Jianzhen was hired by the newly empowered clans to travel in search of funding from private aristocrats as well. Tōshōdai-ji is one of the places in Nara that UNESCO has designated as World Heritage Site "Historic Monuments of Ancient Nara". == Building list == *Golden Hall - National Treasure of Japan, built in the Nara period (710 to 794). *Korō - National Treasure of Japan, rebuilt in 1240. *Kōdō (Lecture Hall) - National Treasure of Japan, built in the Nara period. *Hōzō (Treasure House) - National Treasure of Japan, built in the Nara period. *Kyōzō (Sutra Storehouse) - National Treasure of Japan, built in the Nara period. *Mieidō - Important Cultural Property. *Raidō - Important Cultural Property. *Shinden - Important Cultural Property. *Nandaimon 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「Tōshōdai-ji」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
