What to expect
Todai-ji Temple
Tōdai-ji is a Buddhist temple complex that was once one of the powerful Seven Great Temples, located in the city of Nara, Japan. The construction of the temple was an attempt to imitate Chinese temples from the much-admired Tang dynasty.
Nara Park is a public park located in the city of Nara, Japan, at the foot of Mount Wakakusa. Established in 1880, it is one of the oldest parks in Japan. Administratively, the park is under the control of Nara Prefecture
The capital Heijo-kyo was built at the site of present-day Nara city about 1,300 years ago. A series of laws known as the Ritsuryo codes had been completed to provide a legal framework for the nation, and Tempyo culture flourished in and around the city. For the 74 years of what is known as the Nara period, the city stood at the center of Japanese political and cultural life. In the center of Heijo-kyo were located the Daigokuden (Imperial Audience Hall) and Chodo-in, which were used for political and ceremonial purposes, as well as the emperor’s palace and the government agencies that governed the city.
Horyu-ji
Hōryū-ji (Japanese: 法隆寺, Hepburn: Temple of the Flourishing Dharma) is a Buddhist temple that was once one of the powerful Seven Great Temples, in Ikaruga, Nara Prefecture, Japan. Its full name is Hōryū Gakumonji (法隆学問寺), or Learning Temple of the Flourishing Law, the complex serving as both a seminary and monastery.
