Remember 2019.11 Kansai late autumn trip~ Maple Leaf season came to Nara, Dongda Temple is a must-have place to enjoy the maple. Before I came, I didn't know that the scale of the East Temple was so large, with the Big Buddha Hall as the center, surrounded by the East and West Seven Towers, there are South Gate, there are lecture halls, there are Jietan Courtyards, there are Zhengcang Courtyards, there are February Halls, Fahua Halls, Kaishan Halls, etc. It is really magnificent. It is said that the Big Buddha Hall is the world's largest wooden building. It was just that it was late afternoon from Nara Park to Todaiji Temple, and there was not enough time to browse one by one, only entering the February hall of the temple. But just such a hasty and quick tour is enough to be shocked by the landscape of Red Maple. If you have the opportunity, you must come again!

走遍天下XZ
Spring Day Club, located on the Spring Day Mountain in Nara Park, although it is a mountain, it is actually a little slope. It has a history of more than 1,300 years and has been listed by the United Nations on the World List of Cultural and Historical Heritage Protection. It is the temple of the Fujiwara family, which is a prominent Japanese history, and is dedicated to the patron saint of their family. The Fujiwara family has manipulated the Japanese royal family for more than 300 years, and is also an active promoter and practitioner of the Chinese political and social system and has been fully transplanted into Japan. The never-cut spring mountain, the purple alfalfa that symbolizes family names and ethnic surnames, the mysterious apple tree, the moss-covered stone lanterns, the sticky fawn are all worth seeing.

The two cities tour routes and the Chinese guide book are doing very well. It is the most organized scenic spot in Japan for a week of free travel. ~ worth a visit! The Chinese guide book at the door must remember to take it!

It was the capital of Nara, Japan, and the entire palace was a typical Tang style. Although it was forgotten and even razed after the move, the site has now been reconstructed. At present, you can see the restored Zhuque Gate and various historical materials and cultural relics.

游侠半仙
The Phoenix Hall is a resembling the official hall of the Jingshi, consisting of the left wing corridor and tail corridor of the middle hall. It is a building not found elsewhere. The hall brings together the most outstanding treasures of the Ping An era's pure land teaching art, including the only existing Amitabha milk carved by the Buddha-made master Ding Dynasty, as well as 52 statues of the Bodhisattva in the clouds, and 9 murals painted by Amitabha to welcome the picture. To visit the Phoenix Hall of the Equality Academy, you need to queue up to buy a tour coupon first. There is an entry time for the tour coupon. You need to go on time. There is an artificial Japanese explanation for the entrance tour and you cannot take pictures. The Japanese ten yuan coin pattern is the Equality Academy.

Come on February 11, 2017. When you have time to brush Kyoto, come to Yinge Temple to see. The name of Yinge Temple is "Cizhao Temple", because the temple's Guanyin Temple is built after the "Golden Pavilion", but there is no gold, so it is called "Silver Pavilion", but the "Silver Pavilion" does not stick silver, but is painted black. It may also be this reason, the popularity of Yinge Temple is much worse than that of Jinge Temple. In fact, Yinge Temple is also a monument, which has been around for more than 500 years. It is also beneficial to be in a weak popularity. The atmosphere of Yinge Temple is relatively quiet, making the scenery of the temple more flavorful. Fortunately, before I went to Kyoto, it snowed, "Silver Pavilion" and other pavilions on the top of the silver white, great!

The Buddhist holy place in Japan is the main field of the Japanese master of the Suga. We went to play in the autumn red leaf season. The red leaves on both sides of Omotesando are very beautiful. It is the famous place for the island countries to enjoy the red leaves. The Jingangfeng Temple is built by the master of the Suga. You can visit it in slippers and it is also a world cultural heritage.

The Nishi-Honwan Temple is the largest wooden complex in Japan, with buildings and fascinating gardens built from the 1st century. The majestic posture of the Yuyingtang and Amituotang in the courtyard is magnificent. The remnants of Fushimi City's Tangmen, Japan's oldest Beineng stage, Bai Academy, Black Academy, Feiyun Pavilion and other buildings tell the present people about the gorgeous Taoshan culture.

Faqi Temple, a small monastery in the northeast countryside of Falong Temple, World Heritage Site. Why is this small monastery worth a special visit? The triple tower in the temple is the oldest existing pagoda in Japan, enough. The monastery is small and exquisite, elegant and simple, because there are few tourists, quiet and comfortable. There is a courtyard, there are mountains and stones, there are pools, there are flowers and plants, there are ancient towers, quiet and beautiful.

Renhe Temple, the imperial cherry blossom period here is much more than the general cherry blossom evening, can be said to be the last "flower see" in Kyoto. When more than 200 imperial cherry blossoms at Renhe Temple began to cherry blossoms and snow fell, it indicates that this year's cherry blossom season is really over. The cherry blossom sea here is like a gorgeous scene in your dreams, strolling along the walkway between the "Royal House cherry", which is a completely different feeling from the general cherry forest, as if it had entered a flower bush, surrounded by a sea of flowers. Looking up, you can see the towering five towers, standing above the sea of flowers, classical and solemn.
