Tōdai-ji is one of the most iconic buildings of ancient Japan and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located in the city of Nara, Tōdai-ji is a temple complex — with ji meaning temple in Japanese — which serves as the centre of the Kegon Buddhist practice. As a designated and protected historical site of Japan, this makes for one of the more stunning 3D building models, complete with gate (Karamon), courtyard and the famous great hall (Daibutsuden) housing a giant bronze Buddha statue. The building and surrounding complex are known for housing or featuring many national treasures and architectural wonders of Japan, including the Kon-dō (Daibutsuden), Nandaimon, Kaizan-dō, Shōrō, Hokke-dō (Sangatsu-dō), Nigatsu-dō and Tegaimo. The site owes its treasure status to the age of its structures, with some built as early as the 8th century. The temple’s historical age, cultural and religious significance to both Shinto and Buddhist practices, makes Tōdai-ji one of the most important Japanese landmarks.
