为什么值得去
- The five-story pagoda here ranks among Japan's three finest and has survived over 600 years without a single nail, relying entirely on interlocking wooden joints that flex during earthquakes.
- Built in the early 1400s during the Ouchi clan's golden age, this pagoda reflects when Yamaguchi rivaled Kyoto as a center of culture and was called the 'Kyoto of the West.'
- The temple garden's pond perfectly mirrors the pagoda's reflection, a design technique the Ouchi clan borrowed from Zen temples in Ming Dynasty China during their active trade period.
