Komyo Todaiji Temple

Nara
《Todai-ji Temple》
Located in Nara, Japan, it is a world cultural heritage site. Its predecessor, Kinzhong-ji Temple, was built in the fifth year of the reign of Emperor Shengui (728 AD), and was later renamed Kinkomyo-ji Temple. It was also named "Todai-ji Temple" because it is located east of Heijokyo.

During the Nara period, Emperor Shomu sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty many times, bringing back a large amount of Tang Dynasty culture, and issued an edict to build Kokubun-ji Temple. Buddhism began to spread throughout Japan, forming the "Tempyo culture".

The deer that can be seen everywhere complement the majestic Buddhist temples. They shuttle freely among them, as if they are carefree.

The Vairocana Buddha sits in the temple, waiting for the arrival of believers~
The world is impermanent, only the Buddha's light shines on all living beings
