仁和寺 金堂

Kondo of Ninnaji Temple. Thanks for the reward.

It is rubble-made, but the basic structure is a dormitory-built, and luxurious decorative metal fittings are decorated everywhere until it reaches the top of the rafter, and the rafter also becomes triple instead of ordinary double, etc. as temple construction in other There are few similar examples of decorative decoration that this building was not originally a temple in the temple, but it is the most important shrine in the imperial palace of Japan, the imperial palace, and it is also the most important palace in Japan. Because it was Shion who is to be seen. Therefore, it is designated as a national treasure not only because it is a temple in Ninna-ji, but also as a valuable remains to understand the state of the pre-modern era. In recent years, a large-scale restoration work has been carried out, and the brilliance of gold fittings is particularly brilliant in black lacquering of Shishido. Black lacquer is weak to UV rays and eventually loses its luster, so let's take a close look now. Ninna-ji also lost most of the buildings during the War of the Rebellion and continued devastation, and the Tokugawa Shogunate has responsibly revived the current temple, which is now the head temple of Monjo Temple Because it has a deep relationship with the emperor's house, it is this Jindo that the emperor's house donated to the Shionsu-den, which had been built for many years. It's probably because it was the Shiyanagiden that it is exquisitely designed to look so small and politely smaller than its actual size while being a luxurious architecture. When you go inside, you will find that it is a much larger building than it was from the outside. There is also a mural on the front of the interior space that is greatly expanded in the vertical direction because a ceiling board is not attached and treated with a decorative ceiling. It should be noted that the main temple here is relatively rare in the Shingon temple (Yakushi-nuri, there are a lot of Dainichi-nuri), and the old Heian period Amida-san (the national treasure-present) according to the scale of this new temple A three-toned statue larger than the one displayed at the Reihokan is newly made and enshrined.

It seems that you can enjoy the wonderful scenery during the cherry blossom season.

Omuro cherry blossoms were in full bloom. Since the sunoco is well maintained, I could appreciate it even in the rain without worrying about my feet.

The main idol of Ninna-ji Temple, Amitabha triad, is enshrined. It is a national treasure.

The main hall of Ninna-ji Temple is said to have been relocated and renovated from the Shishinden Hall on the inner lining, which was built in 1613. It seems that the roof has been changed from cypress bark to real tile roof, and the interior has been divided into inner and outer camps to make it look like a Buddhist temple. On a winter trip to Kyoto in 2019, I visited the interior with Keizo.

It seemed like it was time to read sutras, and it sounded like a singing voice. I'm glad I went. Because of the corona sickness, there were very few people and I had a wonderful time.

If you come to Ninna-ji Temple, a world cultural heritage site in May 2015, we highly recommend the Kondo (national treasure) and Keizo (important cultural property) at the back. Unfortunately, you can only see the inside when it is open to the public, but there is a beautiful Buddha statue and it is spectacular. I am impressed with the elegant world. Please check the special release date on the website of the Kyoto Tourism Association and have a look.
