Toda-ji Temple

Todaiji was once one of Japan’s Seven Great Temples and houses the world’s largest bronze Buddha. As one of the main sites of interest in Nara, the Temple was originally built in 752 and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Daibutsu (Great Buddha) is Japan’s largest at 15m high. Cast from over 400 tons of bronze and originally gilded, the whole nation was involved in its construction. Be sure to walk behind the statue to see the models of how the temple site originally looked.

In the Daibutsuden (the main hall surrounding the seated Buddha) there are models of previous temple structures and a pillar with a hole the size of the Buddha’s nostril in it.

Located in: Nara Park
Address: 406-1 Zoshicho, Nara, 630-8211
