Nara 🌸

Nara 🌸 | Dreaming Back to the Tang Dynasty, 🌿Witnessing the Sunset of Life 🌄 at Todai-ji Temple 🌿Nara, historically known as "Heijō-kyō", is an ancient capital of Japan that predates Kyoto, 🌿 with a more extensive history. It is also the first true capital of the country. During the Nara Period, which coincided with the prosperous Tang Dynasty in China, 🌿 Japan fully embraced the culture and systems of the Tang era. 🌿This was a rare period of peace and prosperity in Japanese history. 🌿Among its treasures, Todai-ji Temple, also known as "Daibutsu-ji" or "Great Buddha Temple", 🌿has a history of over 1200 years. 🌺 Todai-ji Temple inevitably reminds one of the Liao Dynasty's Huayan Temple in Datong, Shanxi. 🌿 Both are wooden structures that have been preserved for a millennium... 🏯 #Japan #Travel 🍃🌿
