At the Golden Hall in Chusonji Temple in Hiraizumi Town, Iwate Prefecture, the work to re-cover the outer wall, which has been underway since June, has been completed, and on the 15th, a memorial service was held to coincide with the completion.
The Golden Hall in Chuson-ji Temple in Hiraizumi Town was built by Kiyohira, the founder of Mr. Fujiwara Oshu, about 900 years ago, and is covered with glittering gold and represents paradise. It is said that.
Most of these gold packs were re-covered during a large-scale repair in 1968, but over 50 years later, the gold packs on the outer walls and doors have gradually come off.
For this reason, the temple has been outsourced to a contractor specializing in the restoration of cultural properties since June, and has been proceeding with restoration work to re-cover the cracked parts.
The construction was completed earlier this month, and on the 15th, local officials gathered at the shining Golden Hall, and a memorial service was held to coincide with the completion.
After the memorial service, Mototeru Okuyama of Chusonji said, "Konjikido is the central building of the world heritage site" Hiraizumi "and is an important cultural property that should be passed down to future generations. I hope I can go. "
