After many hardships, the Great Priest Ganjin arrived in Japan. After spending five years at Todai-ji Temple, he was granted the former residence of Imperial Prince Niitabe (present-day Gojo-cho, Nara City), and in 759, he opened a training hall for those who study precepts. Initially named "Toryu Shotai," and started as Ganjin's private temple, it only had a lecture hall, a sutra repository remodeled from Imperial Prince Niitabe's former residence, and a treasure house. The Kondo (main hall) is said to have been completed in the late 8th century, thanks to the efforts of Nyoho, one of Ganjin's disciples. Today, the Kondo and Kodo (lecture hall), built in the Nara period, are valuable structures that convey the breath of the Tenpyo era. #TBS #Nara #Kyoto #ToshodaijiTemple #TodaijiTemple #Naratabi
