大仏さんが小さくなった?【冬の奈良旅・東大寺・春日大社・徹底解説】クイズ形式で歴史を楽しく学べる
I came to Todaiji Temple all of a sudden, but here’s the problem! “How much is the admission fee for Todaiji Temple for one adult?” ①600 yen ②900 yen ③1,200 yen ~ The correct answer was ①, 600 yen! After all, here is the list of admission fees.For
Junior high school students and above, the fee is the same.It looks like there will be a new fee after April 2024.It looks like the price will go up a bit.This is Todaiji Daibutsuden, which is one of the largest wooden structures in the world. ”
The Great Buddha Hall enshrines the principal Buddha, and is officially called Todaiji Kondo.The question here is: “When was Todaiji Temple first built?” ① Nara period (758) ② Kamakura period (1195) ③ Edo period (1709) The correct answer is ① Nara period! As expected
, it was actually destroyed by fire twice, and was rebuilt in the Kamakura period and the Edo period. The current Great Buddha Hall was rebuilt during the Edo period. It is 57.5m wide, 50.5m deep, and 49.1m high to the ridge.The
Nara period was a difficult time due to political disputes, drought, famine, poor harvests, large earthquakes, and repeated smallpox outbreaks. . Todaiji is a temple built by Emperor Shomu during the Nara period to protect the idea of Buddhism and the country.
The Great Buddha was built in the hope that all living things would prosper together, and an edict to build the Great Buddha was issued. The official name of the Great Buddha is “Todaiji Temple Rushanabutsu.” I wonder if this size can be conveyed.The question is “How tall is the current Great Buddha in Nara?”
①13.26m②14.98m③15 .80m Niban Sanban The correct answer was ②14.98m! In fact, when it was built in the Nara period, the height of the Great Buddha was 15.80 meters. When it was rebuilt, it became a little smaller. Ah, this golden horse-shaped thing on the roof is called “Shibi”. On the left side facing the
Great Buddha is the “Kokuzo Bodhisattva statue”. It means “a Bodhisattva with infinite wisdom and compassion like the universe.” The Great Buddha was burnt down twice in war. It was restored each time and took on its current appearance during the Edo period. The main
Parts of the Great Buddha, from its belly to its legs and pedestal, remain from the Nara period. Inside the Daibutsuden, you can walk around the Daibutsu. This steep staircase leads to the attic, where you can see a large beam measuring 23 meters. It looks like they are currently reinforcing it with rebar.
It is said that the roof alone weighs 3000 tons. However, it seems that it is not open to the public. It seems like a camera was taken at Buratamori some time ago.I would like to try climbing it once, but it is quite steep and I think it would be quite scary.There
Is a standing statue of Hiromokuten here.The Four Heavenly Kings are said to be guardian deities that protect the four directions. Inside the Daibutsuden are Komoku-ten and Tamon-ten. This Komoku-ten seems to be very popular and attracts many people. This model is a model of the time it was built in the Nara period. .
Here’s the question : “How much larger is the current Todaiji Buddha Hall compared to the one from the Nara period?” ① 150% (larger now) ② 65% (larger in the past) ③ Is it the same? Mr. Miss! The correct answer was ②65%!
Comparing the size at the time of its founding, the depth and height are almost the same, but the width is about 2/3 smaller, from 85.8m to 57.5m. Also, approximately 2.6 million people, about half of the population at the time, helped build the Great Buddha and the Great Buddha Hall! Here’s the question
: “The Great Buddha Hall of Todaiji Temple disappeared for the second time in 1567. Now, after that, the Great Buddha was exposed to the rain, but for how long?” ① About half a year ② About 3 years Year ③ About 120 years ~ Ichi!
The correct answer is ③ about 120 years! To the right of the entrance to Todai-ji Temple is the statue of Binzuru Sonjazo.It has a very impressive face.It is said that if you rub the same part of the statue as where you are suffering from an illness, you will be cured.
For this reason, it is also called “Nadebutsu”. Even foreigners are being cared for. However, because the pedestal is high, only the feet can be touched (sweat) , so the upper body is not touched and remains beautiful. , a concert calling for the protection of cultural properties was held
. Foreign and Japanese musicians such as Bob Dylan and Bon Jovi performed. We are now heading to Kasuga Taisha Shrine . Kasuga Taisha Shrine was built by the Fujiwara clan during the Nara period, and flourished as the guardian deity of the Fujiwara clan.The shrine building is in a style called Kasuga-zukuri, and
The main shrine is designated as a national treasure. Although the company’s history says it was founded in 768, it is actually thought to date back to the beginning of the Nara period. Four deities are enshrined at the western foot of
Mt. Kasuga/Mt. Mikasayama, which has been considered sacred since ancient times as a mountain where gods descend.Here we have a question : Kasuga Taisha Shrine is famous for its many lanterns. But, how many are there?” ①About 500 ②About 1,000 ③About 3,000 It’s difficult, but… The correct answer was ③About 3,000!
Kasuga Taisha is the headquarters of the approximately 3,000 Kasuga Shrines nationwide. When Heijo-kyo, the capital of Nara, was established, a god named Takemikazuchi-no-Mikoto from Hitachi Province (Ibaraki Prefecture) was invited to become the guardian deity of the capital, and a shrine was built in 768. .
Since then, it has been worshiped by a wide range of people, including the imperial family, aristocrats, famous military commanders, and common people. Kasuga Taisha Shrine is characterized by its vermilion lacquering.The front tower gate, the approximately 52-meter east corridor that surrounds the headquarters, and the 81-meter west corridor are decorated with vivid vermillion lacquering
. There are about 1,000 fishing lanterns that have been dedicated over the years , and about 2,000 stone lanterns line the approach.At Kasuga Taisha Shrine, there was a deer ema.There are male and female deer ema. Both are 800 yen. Did you like this video?
