なら燈花会へ行ってまいりました。第五弾は東大寺の大仏様です。闇夜に浮かぶ蝋燭はもちろんのこと、「まさかこの位置から大仏様のご尊顔を拝謁できるとは」という驚きがとても印象に残っております。中盤の大仏殿は、ヴァーティゴ風に調整いたしました。お楽しみいただけましたら幸いです。
The Great Buddha Hall is the Main Hall (kondō) of Tōdai-ji. Built first in the Nara period it has been destroyed twice by fire in 1180 and again in 1567. The present structure, dating to the Edo period, was built under the direction of the monk Kōkei. The original hall and the one rebuilt in 1195, were both eleven bays wide; the present structure, however, was reduced in size to seven bays because only limited funds were available. Nevertheless, the height and depth of the structure remain the same as those of the original. The Great Buddha Hall is the largest wooden structure in the world.
