Today we have a building paper craft model of Todai-ji Temple Hall of the Great Buddha, Japan.
Todai-ji is a historical place and a landmark of Nara, Japan.
The temple was constructed in 752 as the head temple of all provincial Buddhist temples of Japan and grew so powerful that the capital was moved from Nara to Nagaoka in 784 in order to lower the temple’s influence on government affairs.
Todaiji’s main hall, the Daibutsuden (Big Buddha Hall) is the world’s largest wooden building. The massive building houses one of Japan’s largest bronze statues of Buddha (Daibutsu) which is 15 meters tall.
