    Japanese Architecture

    Uploaded by

    Marrielle Balagot
    Japanese architecture is characterized by a synthesis of ideas from China and native conditions, producing a distinct style. The Nara period saw the adoption of Chinese culture and forms of government. The Heian period saw further modification and naturalization of Chinese ideas and institutions. Shintoism views the physical and supernatural world as a single unified creation, emphasizing harmony with nature. Specific architectural styles like shinmei-zukuri for Shinto shrines and techniques like shikinen sengu ritual rebuilding are discussed.
