Item Description: This is a finely crafted decorative model of Kinkaku-ji (formally known as Rokuon-ji), the famed Zen Buddhist temple located in Kyoto, Japan, and designated as a National Treasure. The model faithfully recreates the temple's iconic Golden Pavilion with its distinct three-tiered structure, elegant sweeping roofs, and the ornamental phoenix perched on the top. Each tier features traditional balcony railings and suspended bell accents, echoing the refined architectural elements of the real structure. Mounted on a black display base, the front bears a plaque indicating that it was a gift from the Governor of Hyogo Prefecture, suggesting its use as a commemorative or official presentation item. An additional plaque reads “National Treasure – Rokuon-ji – Kinkaku,” honoring its cultural significance. This piece serves as a graceful tribute to classical Japanese temple architecture and is ideal for collectors and display.
