Chūgū-ji Hondō

Шаблон:Nihongo is a temple in Nara Prefecture, Japan, that was founded as a nunnery in the seventh century by Shōtoku Taishi. Located immediately to the northeast of Hōryū-ji, its statue of Miroku and Tenjukoku mandala are National Treasures.

History

Chūgūji was once the palace of Hashihito, mother of Shōtoku Taishi. After her death it was converted into a temple. It was restored and converted to a nunnery by the nun Shinnyo in the late Kamakura period.[1][2] Originally standing three hundred metres to the east, it was moved to its present location in the Muromachi period.[3] Chūgū-ji is one of three nunneries in Yamato whose chief priestesses were imperial princesses.[4] The site of Chūgū-ji has been designated a Historic Site, and the Edo period Omotegomon has been registered as a cultural property.[5][6]

Tenjukoku Mandala, a National Treasure

After the death of Shōtoku Taishi in 622, his consort Tachibana-no-Oiratsume commissioned the Шаблон:Nihongo. The embroidery of heaven and eternal life, together with one hundred tortoises and accompanying text, was restored in the Edo period by combining the surviving fragments with parts of a Kamakura period replica.[10][11]
