Tentang lokasi ini: Aula Phoenix Byodo-in
Paviliun Phoenix Byodoin, situs UNESCO 1053, tampil di balik koin 10 yen: ikon Jepang. Bentuk simetrisnya seperti melayang di kolam Aji, visi Tanah Murni yang dijadikan duniawi. Wisteria di musim semi, hijau di musim panas, dedaunan musim gugur, dan keheningan musim dingin: semuanya indah.
Sorotan utama
- Phoenix Hall (National Treasure) — symmetrical wings facing Aji Pond, a pair of phoenix figures on the roof, the very view depicted on the reverse of the ¥10 coin
- Aji Pond — pool spreading before the Phoenix Hall; on a windless dawn it forms a perfect mirror, with cherry blossoms and autumn colors as borrowed scenery
- Hosho-kan Museum — displays the National Treasure Amida Buddha statue and 26 «Cloud-borne Bodhisattvas,» peak masterpieces of Heian art
- Wisteria — over 280 years old, blooming in late April to early May; the purple wisteria with the vermilion Phoenix Hall is otherworldly
- Evening Illumination — held in limited spring and autumn periods; the vermilion-and-gold hall floating in darkness reflects across the pond
