Tiny passageway at the base of a column - Nara, Japan
Tiny passageway at the base of a column within the Todai-ji (Eastern Great Temple), a Buddhist temple complex located in the city of Nara, Japan. Because of the immense scale of this building, no single trees were large enough to form the massive columns. In one case, a section of a column was omitted so children or small persons may crawl through to be blessed with enlightenment in the next life. As adults, most cannot make a repeat passage. Date: circa 1910s
