Toshogu Shrine Sacred Carvings
Varsha VaswatiA part of ‘Shrines and Temples of Nikko’, a UNESCO World Heritage site, this shrine is believed to be one of Japan’s most lavishly decorated shrines.
The Nikko Toshogu Shrine is arguably one of the most important religious sites in Japan and is located in the forests of Tochigi Prefecture. The shrine is the final resting place of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the samurai leader who united Japan in the early 1600s and the first ruler of the Tokugawa shogunate of the same name, which ruled Japan for over 250 years until 1868.
Originally a relatively simple mausoleum, Toshogu was expanded in the first half of the 16th century by Ieyasu's grandson Iemitsu to create the spectacular complex that can be visited today. The shrine complex consists of more than a dozen buildings, which have been refined with countless wood carvings and large amounts of gold leaf. This is very unusual as there is usually an emphasis on simplicity in shrine architecture. Toshogu contains both Shinto and Buddhist elements. The wood carving of the monkeys who see no evil, speak no evil, and hear no evil is best known.

With over 500 intricate carvings, the Yonmeimon is known as one of the most beautiful gates in Japan. Rows of elaborate golden dragons are carved onto the huge gate that marks the entrance towards the main shrine building. Yonmeimon gate is rightfully designated as a National Treasure, and is also known as the “Main Gate of the Imperial Court”.
Nemurineko, or Sleeping Cat, is a detailed wooden carving by Hidari Jingoro. The carving depicts a cat falling asleep while surrounded by flowers. Nemurineko is located at the East Corridor of Toshogu Shrine, where it's easily spotted by the crowds of visitors clamoring to take a photo of it.
One of Toshogu Shrine’s most famous sights, the lifelike wooden carving of three monkeys are located at the stable building within the complex. The monkeys represent those who hear, speak, and see no evil — a common saying in East Asian culture.
Standing at the entrance to Nikko's shrines, this sacred bridge actually belongs to Futarasan Shrine, however, visitors to Nikko Toshogu Shrine will cross it. It is considered one of the three finest bridges in Japan.

I'd like to share the beauty of Nikko with you--in the rain. This story focuses on the nooks and crannies of the area just OUTSIDE Toshogu Shrine. Very beautiful.
この短い写真シリーズでは、私が遭遇した美しい日光を共に分かち合いたいと思う -- 美しき雨の日光を。ここでは知られざる東照宮の外側 に焦点を当てている。この上なき美しさだ。
日光東照宮は、それまで日本に存在していたどの社寺とも異なる建造物である。なぜ、どのような経緯でこのような特殊な建物が造られたのか、そしてその背景にはどんな思想が横たわっているのか、ガイドブックより、少しだけ奥の世界に入って日光東照宮の秘密を探ってみたい。
日光東照宮の絢爛豪華な装飾を企画・構成したのは、幕府御用絵師・狩野探幽（1602-1674）である。探幽は、陽明門や唐門、神庫などの建造物、すべてに施す彫刻デザインを担当し、その配置を決めた。総数は実に5173体。
小堀遠州は、東照宮のグランドデザインに、密かに西洋の技術を応用したが、それによって、そこが聖域であることの異質さを効果的に表現することができたのである。

Tôi muốn chia sẻ vẻ đẹp của Nikko với bạn - trong cơn mưa. Câu chuyện này tập trung vào những ngóc ngách của khu vực ngay bên ngoài dền Toshogu. Rất đẹp.
Ngay cả sau khi viếng thăm đền Tosho-gu ở Nikko hơn 15 lần, tôi vẫn rất thèm cái cảm giác được thưởng thức vẻ đẹp rất khác nhau của nó, tùy thuộc vào mùa và thời gian trong ngày.

栃木県にある日光東照宮は、1999年に「日光の社寺」として世界文化遺産に登録されました。日光東照宮をはじめ、二荒山神社や大猶院など全106の社寺が構成遺産として登録されています。ここは江戸幕府初代将軍の徳川家康公を祀る神社で、1617年に完成しました。その後3代将軍家光公が「寛永の大改修」を行い、豪華絢爛な造りの社殿へと変貌を遂げました。最近では「平成の大改修」が終了し、かつての色鮮やかな「陽明門」などを目にすることが出来ます。日光東照宮の建物の装飾はとても細かく、様々な動物なども登場しています。日光を代表する最強のパワースポットです。

Among Nikko’s many world-renowned temples, stands the vibrantly colored Rinnoji (輪王寺), which was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. Shodo Shonin, a Buddhist monk credited for introducing Buddhism to Nikko, founded the temple in the eight century. Lush forests and the mountainous landscapes of Mount Nantai, Nyoho, and Taro surround the collection of buildings, creating an atmosphere of sacred solitude. Many notable Buddhist figures were drawn to the temple’s pious isolation, including Kukai, the founder of the Shingon School of Buddhism, and Enjin, a priest of the Tendai School of Buddhism.
