Uji Byodo-in Temple (all)
宇治平等院 平等院 (Byōdōin) 是佛教净土 (Jodo) 建筑的典范。该寺及其花园代表着净土世界,对后来的寺庙建设产生了影响。平等院最初建于 998 年,是权势政治家藤原道长的乡村别墅,而非寺庙。 道长的儿子将平等院改建为一座寺庙,并下令建造其最壮观的建筑——凤凰堂。尽管这座建筑在 1053 年建成后几乎立即被赋予了另一个正式名称,但由于其形状和屋顶上的两只凤凰雕像,它被昵称为 Hoodo(“凤凰厅”)。该大厅现在被印在日本十日元硬币的背面。 使用权 坐车 参观宇治平等院的最佳方式是在京都乘坐私人交通工具/观光出租车。KingTai Travel有很多京都的观光出租车,价格也很实惠。 从 JR 宇治站或京阪宇治站步行 10 至 15 分钟即可到达平等院。 时间和费用 营业时间: 8:30 ~ 17:30 (入馆截止时间 17:15) 凤凰堂参观 9:30 ~ 16:10 宝库 9:00~17:00 (入馆截止时间 16:45) 门票:600日元(凤凰堂参观另加300日元)
