About Chosen Temple Budistički hram

Chosen Temple je mali budistički hram koji se nalazi u gradu Asakuči, u prefekturi Okajama, u Japanu. Zgrada je izgrađena od armiranog betona, sa spoljnim zidovima obloženim pažljivo odabranim japanskim granitom. U unutrašnjosti je korišćena tradicionalna japanska drvenarija, čime je stvoren miran i topao enterijer. Hram se prostire na parceli od 950 kvadratnih metara i ima izgrađenu površinu od 77 kvadratnih metara. Dizajn postavlja hram u harmoniju sa okolnim pejzažem i posetiocima nudi mirno mesto za molitvu i meditaciju uz uživanje u pogledu.
