Daibutsu (大仏誕) of the Tōdai-ji, Nara - CGI
This is a clip about the CGI preservation and restoration of the Great Buddha at the Todaiji in Nara, Japan. Only parts of this centuries-old bronze statue have survived earthquakes and at least two devastating arson attacks which burned down its surrounding wooden structure, known as the Todaiji. The two five-storied pagodas are also no longer extant. Over the centuries, the head and hands have been re-sculpted to replace what was damaged or lost; as a result, the features of the Daibutsu have changed over the years to suit the style of its respective artistic eras. Through digital scanning, reconstruction via written records and virtually dialing back time, the architecture and sculptural elements can be married and again seen as it either was once envisioned or used to be.

TODAI JI world's largest wooden temple Japan
Support our channel :
Todaiji (東大寺, Tōdaiji, Great Eastern Temple) is one of Japan's most famous and historically significant temples and a landmark of Nara. 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, despite the fact that the present reconstruction of 1692 is only two thirds of the original temple hall's size. The massive building houses one of Japan's largest bronze statues of Buddha (Daibutsu). The 15 meters tall, seated Buddha represents Vairocana and is flanked by two Bodhisattvas.
maller Buddhist statues and models of the former and current buildings are also on display in the Daibutsuden Hall. Another popular attraction is a pillar with a hole in its base that is the same size as the Daibutsu's nostril. It is said that those who can squeeze through this opening will be granted enlightenment in their next life.
Along the approach to Todaiji stands the Nandaimon Gate, a large wooden gate watched over by two fierce looking statues. Representing the Nio Guardian Kings, the statues are designated national treasures together with the gate itself. Temple visitors will also encounter some deer from the adjacent Nara Park, begging for shika senbei, special crackers for deer that are sold for around 150 yen.

Nara To-Kae-2012!
Nara Toka-e is an annual summer night event in Nara Park amongst World Heritage Sites. Countless number of candles light the Nara Park, creating a beautiful and fantastic atmosphere. This event has grown to be a famous summer event of Nara, attracting many people every year.
Tens of thousands of candles are lit up in the land of ancient Nara, the capital of Japan 1300 years ago.
TO-KA is a lump of flower shape on the top of a candlewick after lighting a candle. It is said to bring good fortune.
From Nara Park, Sarusawa pond, Gojunidan area, Ukimido & Sagi pond, Asajigahara area, Ukigumoenchi area, Nara National Museum area, and Kofukuji temple area, about 20.000 candles are lit up, creating a romantic atmosphere.
Many festival goers are wearing the traditional yukatta, couples young and old holding hands and strolling through the different venues.
These are the different spots that are illuminated:
Kofukuji Temple: The five-storied pagoda is one of the national treasures of Kofukuji Temple. The illuminated pagoda and bundles of candle lights displays the ancient capital of Nara in a different light than when seen during the day.
Sarusawa-Ike Pond and the 52 Stairs: Sarusawa-ike pond is lined with candle lights and its surface reflects the five-storied pagoda of Kofukuji Temple, creating a picturesque night view. Seen from this site, Kofukuji Temple shows a different aspect of itself. Connecting the pond and the temple are 52 stone stairs. Candles are also set on both sides of the stairs. The stairs are the entrance to guide visitors to the world of the Toka-e Light Festival.
Gojyunidan: Gojyunidan is ascetic training stairs for Buddhist priesthood. With the candlelight, the steep 52 steps stands in front of you tells the profound meaning that each step has. It seems the gentle light leads you to Celestial world as if the only light knew the truth.
Ukimido Pavilion and Sagi-ike Pond: Ukimido Pavilion, Sagi-ike Pond and the surrounding area create a fantastic view filled with candle lights. Candles are placed around Sagi-ike Pond and on Horai Bridge which leads to Ukimido Pavilion. Even the boats floating on the pond have candles on the bows. Visitors may enjoy the lights from the boats
Asajigahara: Bamboo objets d'art are lit up by thousands of candlelight. That creates a magical atmosphere throughout. Candlelight scattered in the Bamboo objets d'art highlights the shadow beauty of trees.
Ukigumoenchi: The area is located in front of the New Public Hall and lit with about 4,000 candles. In Nara, history and culture have been cherished to this day. Each light lit in this land of rich historic and cultural assets soothes people's hearts and invites them to a world of fantasy.
Nara National Museum: The museum which contains many ancient art pieces and the pond in front of it are surrounded by the light of the moon and candles. Also, the museum itself is illuminated, highlighting the beauty of the building.
Kasugano Field: Candles are lit around the spacious and lush lawn. Walking over the large green field in the moonlight with the calm candle lights has a special soothing effect on visitors.
Todaiji: Todaiji Temple was founded by Emperor Shomu. It is said that 15,000 candles were lit for the consecrating ceremony of the new Buddhist image. The Emperor must have wished the peace for the people in the candlelight. We light the candles wishing the peace the same as the people in Tenpyo Area beyond over 1,000 years of time. LIGHT UP 8/13(sat) 8/14(sun) from 19:00-21:45.
Kasugataisha
Blessed Shinto God is enshrined in the country of Yamato. As you walk along the approach you might feel the existence of Yamato God in the solemn atmosphere. You will catch your breath at the enchanting sight of the vermilion Shrine in the darkness by the candlelight and the bronze hanging lanterns. LIGHT UP 8/14 from: 19:00-21:45
