☆Japanese World Heritage Site☆


There are many World Heritage Sites in Japan. I look up two temples in it. There are in Kyoto. In Kyoto, there are many famous World Heritage Sites except that two places.

Kiyomizudera
Kiyomizudera’s main temple is World Heritage Site. In 1633, Tokugawa Iemitsu made contributions to the temple and it was built by that. It also is called “Kiyomizu no butai”. Butai is built without nails. That structure is called “Kakezukuri”or “Butaizukuri”. This is held by the pillar of zelkova.

Kinkakuji
This temple’s formal name is Rokuonnji and this was built by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. Kinkakuji is famous for Shariden. This was burned in 1950, but it was restored in 1955. This is a three- story building and two floor and three floor are covered gold leaves. Therefore Shariden is so beautiful and very famous place.There is Gingasen behind Kinkaku. That is conveyed that Yoshimitsu used this water to make the tea. And now, clear water spring from there.
