The legacy of the Tang Dynasty, Yakushi-ji Temple, "Sanzo-in Garan", "Hakuho Garan"

Nishikyo, Nara World Heritage Site, here is a temple, Hakuho Garan ticket🎫800, Sanzo-in is currently not open inside, free visit outside. The Yakushi-ji Temple is all newly built buildings. The Yakushi-ji Temple was completed in Asuka by Emperor Tenmu's vow (680), Emperor Jito's main statue opened his eyes (697), and Emperor Monmu's reign. After that, the capital was moved to Heijo (710), and moved to the current location in 718. The Yakushi-ji Temple style Daikaran of the two towers in the east and west suffered from multiple disasters, and all the halls turned into ashes. Until the early Showa period, only the East Tower barely survived. In Showa 42 (1967), the chief priest Takada Yoshiyoshi applied for the reconstruction of the Hakuho Garan through the copying of the sutras, and rebuilt the Golden Hall, West Tower, Middle Gate, Corridor, Lecture Hall, and Dining Hall, restoring the Hakuho Garan building. The beauty of Daikaran is called "Ryugu Zao", spanning 1300 years of history. In Heisei 10 (1998) December, it was registered as a World Heritage Site. Here ends at 16.30 in the afternoon🔚
