Kinkaku-ji
Te Whare Kōwhai Koura, Kyoto
He aha te Whare Koura?
Ko Kinkaku-ji, e mōhiotia ana hoki ko te Whare Koura, tētahi o ngā tohu whenua rongonui o Kyoto, ā, he Wāhi Tuku Iho o te Ao a UNESCO.
I hangaia tuatahitia i te tau 1397 hei whare whakatā mā te shogun a Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, engari i hurihia te whare hei whare karakia Zen i muri i tōna matenga.
