00:00This time, I came to Nara, away from Kyoto.
00:05When I came to Nara last time, I did it with various routes.
00:10Is there anything this time?
00:15Mr. Masatoshi Nakamura came to a peaceful park.
00:20Speaking of Nara's guide, of course, this person.
00:26I knew it. Speaking of Nara, Mr. Tetsuo.
00:31Hello.
00:34Hello. It's been a while.
00:37I'm Tetsuo.
00:39Occasionally, I'm on a trip to Nara that you don't know about.
00:45Mr. Tetsuo, the laughingstock of the M-1 champion from Nara Prefecture.
00:50He has written many books on Buddhism and history.
00:56In the May broadcast, he introduced the roots of Japan hidden in Nara.
01:03Is it another route?
01:05That's right.
01:07This time, I would like you to explore the roots of Fujiwara City in Nara Prefecture.
01:12In a sense, it's popular now.
01:14That's right.
01:16It's also used in the movie Tiger.
01:20There's nothing in this place.
01:25This is called Asuka Itabuki no Miya.
01:29Miya?
01:30Yes, that's right.
01:31It was originally the center of Japan.
01:36It's a place called Koukyo now.
01:40Is it around here?
01:42That's right.
01:44In Asuka Itabuki no Miya, there was the palace of Emperor Kogyoku in the middle of the 7th century.
01:52It is also said to have become a stage for changing the history of Japan.
01:58It's also a place where a famous incident happened.
02:03In that era, history didn't go back and forth that much.
02:11For example, what I know well is the 645th year of Taika.
02:16Everyone knows this.
02:19It's a place that appears at the very beginning of the history.
02:23If you're a sweet history teacher, you'll get a zero.
02:28If you're a strict history teacher, you'll probably get a pin.
02:32Tetsu-san, you're a pin.
02:34I'm a triangle.
02:37Are you a triangle?
02:39So it's not exactly Taika no Kaishin.
02:44That's right.
02:46What is it then?
02:48It's called Isshinohen.
02:51Isshinohen?
02:53I haven't heard much about it.
02:55That's right.
02:56If you say Taika no Kaishin, it's the 645th year of Taika.
03:00Taika no Kaishin is all about political reform.
03:06There's an incident where Prince Nakano Oe and Kamatari Nakatomi
03:11were shot in the neck by a soga dolphin.
03:17I heard that the incident itself is called Taika no Kaishin.
03:23That's right.
03:25The political reform that led to it is called Taika no Kaishin.
03:30The incident itself is called Isshinohen.
03:33I see.
03:35In the 645th year of Taika,
03:38Prince Nakano Oe and Kamatari Nakatomi
03:42assassinated a soga dolphin in the middle of the night
03:45and destroyed the soga city, Isshinohen.
03:48The place where the political reform took place is Asuka-kyuseki.
03:54So this is the place where the soga dolphin was killed.
04:01That's right.
04:03This movie was made in Nara prefecture.
04:07It's about Kamatari, Fushito, and the four brothers.
04:11If it hadn't been for them,
04:13Kyoto wouldn't have had a movie like this.
04:15I see.
04:16I'd like you to enjoy the roots of Michinaga in Nara.
04:22The roots of Fujiwara.
04:24I'm looking forward to it.
04:27This time, we're going to explore the ruins of Fujiwara-shi,
04:32which is the root of Michinaga in Fujiwara.
04:38Why did Kamatari Nakatomi go to Fujiwara?
04:42He went to the shrine where the story of his honor is kept.
04:48How much power did Fujiwara have?
04:53The Uji-dera, Kofuku-ji, is a symbol of power.
05:01The influence of Fujiwara-shi has been passed down to modern times.
05:06It's a festival that has been going on for 900 years in Kasuga-taisha, a world heritage site.
05:12Is it still going on?
05:14Yes, it is.
05:15It's scary.
05:16It's full of people.
05:19Tetsuo Waraimeshi introduces a delicacy that is as good as Kyoto.
05:26The roots of Michinaga in Fujiwara in Nara.
05:33A journey to Kyoto that you don't know about.
05:35A story of 1,200 years.
05:40The first journey to explore the roots of Fujiwara-shi in Nara is...
05:47There is a shrine called Tanzan-jinja here.
05:51This is a shrine with the history of Kamatari-san in Fujiwara.
05:57Is it here?
05:58Yes.
06:02It's interesting.
06:03Yes, there are many stairs.
06:08Tanzan-jinja in Sakurai-shi, Nara.
06:12It's a shrine where you can worship the kamatari of Fujiwara as a saint.
06:17Nice to meet you.
06:19Thank you for coming to Tanzan-jinja today.
06:23I'd like to ask Tetsuo-san about the reason for coming here,
06:28and I'd like to end with my gag at the end.
06:32What is the most important reason for coming here?
06:38Kamatari, the wish of Fujiwara.
06:41I'm sorry, I'm losing my temper.
06:44I'm worried about the future.
06:46Kaneko-san, please stay here.
06:48What's your name?
06:50I'm Doi.
06:51I'd like to talk to Doi-san.
06:53Don't worry.
06:57The unique Kaneko-san of Guji has come all the way here.
07:00Keidai will be guided by Doi-san of Gon-Negi.
07:06What do you think surprises me?
07:10Are there a lot of stairs?
07:13No, not the stairs, but the Aomomiji.
07:17It's so beautiful, isn't it?
07:20Yes, it's been beautiful enough since this season.
07:24When autumn comes and autumn leaves start to fall,
07:27this place will be amazing.
07:32Waiting at the end of the stairs surrounded by beautiful Aomomiji.
07:41We've come all the way to the top.
07:44What's on the top?
07:47There's a gate on the right,
07:50and the main shrine is behind it.
07:52There's a Haiden to worship it.
07:56Through the corridor to the inside of the Haiden.
08:00In front of us is the main shrine of the three-dimensional Kasuga-zukuri.
08:05The statue of Kamatari of Fujiwara is enshrined as a sacred object.
08:35This shrine has a very unique atmosphere.
08:40It's the first time I've ever sat down and worshipped.
08:45It's the first time I've ever sat down and worshipped.
08:50It was originally a temple.
08:53I see.
08:55Until the Edo period, it was a temple called Myorakuji.
09:00The Tanzan Shrine was built by the sons of Kamatari of Fujiwara.
09:05Myorakuji is the origin of the name.
09:09Kamatari of Fujiwara is really a temple of yukari, isn't it?
09:13That's right.
09:17This shrine has a precious scroll of Kamatari of Fujiwara.
09:24Here it is.
09:26The color is beautiful.
09:28It is, isn't it?
09:32The front of the Tanzan Shrine.
09:34The scroll of En-Iemaki, the origin of Myorakuji.
09:43Almost three-fourths of the entire scroll is an electric scroll depicting the life of Kamatari.
09:51This is the scene where Kamatari is born.
09:55This is the mother and father of Kamatari.
09:57They are babies.
09:59The baby is Kamatari?
10:01That's right.
10:03This is Kitsune.
10:05We call her Kama-Kitsune.
10:09You can see that she is carrying a Kama.
10:12That's right.
10:14Is this where the Kama of Kamatari comes from?
10:17Yes.
10:19When she was born, Kitsune-san, who was carrying the Kama, was exiled to Kamatari.
10:26From there, she was named Kamako.
10:30After that, she was named Kamatari.
10:32Looking at this, the status of the parents is high, isn't it?
10:36That's right.
10:39The family name Nakatomi was a family that was entrusted with an important role of the government.
10:51This scroll depicts the process of growth from childhood.
10:57This is the scene where she meets Prince Nakano.
11:02Prince Kamatari had a chance to talk to Prince Nakano.
11:10Prince Nakano and Soga-no-Iruka, who were high-ranking officials, were riding a horse.
11:19They went to Asuka-dera, where they are now.
11:25When Prince Kamatari was looking at them, he saw that Prince Nakano had thrown away his horse's shoes.
11:31The red shoes?
11:33Yes.
11:35Soga-no-Iruka saw that and laughed.
11:40Soga-no-Iruka is laughing.
11:42It looks like she is laughing with joy.
11:45Prince Kamatari came out of the house, picked up the shoes and handed them to Prince Nakano.
11:52That's how their friendship began.
11:59Soga-no-Iruka had the power to intimidate the high-ranking officials.
12:07That's right.
12:09Soga-no-Iruka lifted the high-ranking officials, and they helped each other.
12:16That's right. That's the trigger.
12:20Prince Nakano, who wanted to do something about Soga-no-Iruka, who had become a threat to the high-ranking officials,
12:28consulted Prince Kamatari.
12:32Is this in the mountains?
12:35Yes.
12:36This is the mountain called Katarai-yama, which is located in the back of the main temple of Tanzan Shrine.
12:48It's called Katarai-yama.
12:50Soga-no-Iruka is a place where you can't hear anyone even if you have a private conversation.
12:58I see.
13:00Soga-no-Iruka is a place where you can't hear anyone even if you have a private conversation.
13:03I'm influenced.
13:05I'm influenced by Kaneko.
13:08Prince Nakano and Kamatari planned to shoot Soga-no-Iruka in the back of the main temple of Tanzan Shrine.
13:21According to our sources,
13:25they had a private conversation at the beginning of May, when the wind felt good.
13:32On the top of their heads was a beautiful flower called Fujinohana.
13:36Prince Nakano told Prince Kamatari that he would give him a beautiful name like this Fujinohana
13:42when they had a private conversation.
13:46So he gave Prince Kamatari the name Fujinohana.
13:54One year after this private conversation, they carried out their plan.
14:00It was a change of heart.
14:03Who is this person?
14:07This person.
14:09Can I say it?
14:11This is a princess named Emperor Kogyoku.
14:15She was a great minister of the Korean peninsula.
14:20She was visiting Soga-no-Iruka with Emperor Kogyoku.
14:25She was visiting Soga-no-Iruka with Emperor Kogyoku.
14:30She was reading the Johhyo-bun, a book about the history of Soga.
14:37It was a very special occasion.
14:40Yes, it was.
14:42Emperor Ishikawa, who was reading the Johhyo-bun,
14:45was reading the book on purpose because he knew this would happen.
14:50I see.
14:52So his voice began to tremble.
14:55And he was asked by Soga-no-Iruka,
14:58why his voice was trembling so much.
15:01His voice trembled because he thought he was going to be killed.
15:05He said, no, no, there is a very special person coming today.
15:09So he was trying to hide it.
15:11This is a famous scene.
15:12Only Tanzan Shrine has this scene.
15:14Yes.
15:15This is a unique scene.
15:17It's so realistic.
15:20The head is flying.
15:22Yes, it is.
15:24This is the head of the Iruka I mentioned earlier.
15:28Yes, it is.
15:29The one holding a sword is the prince of Nakanoe.
15:32The one holding a bow is Kamatari of Nakatomi.
15:37It's a bit dramatic.
15:40Yes, it is.
15:43This is something only Tanzan Shrine has.
15:46Yes, it is.
15:47Just by looking at these two pictures,
15:50you can see the story clearly.
15:52Yes.
15:53This is very good.
15:55This development is good.
15:57Yes, it is.
15:59Two people who succeeded in the transformation of Soga-no-Iruka.
16:05As promised in Urayama, Kamatari of Nakatomi was born in Fujiwara.
16:15Kamatari of Fujiwara had two sons.
16:20Joe Osho and Fuhito of Fujiwara.
16:25In Tanzan Shrine, there is a precious building built by Joe Osho to worship his father, Kamatari.
16:36This is a cultural property that Sakurai is proud of.
16:40Is this the 13th tower of wooden building?
16:45Yes, this is the only one in the world.
16:48I can't imagine the technology.
16:51Yes.
16:55The 13th tower was built in 678 by Joe Osho to worship his father, Kamatari.
17:04This was rebuilt during the Muromachi period.
17:08It is the only building in the world that still exists as the 13th tower of wooden building.
17:17I've seen the 30th and 50th towers in many places.
17:22I've never seen a 13th tower like this.
17:28The 13th tower and the shrine were built by Kamatari's children.
17:36Fuhito of Fujiwara inherited Kamatari's land and developed Fujiwara City.
17:47Next, I'll show you a place related to Mr. Fuhito.
17:52I'm very interested in this place.
17:56A tour of the roots of Fujiwara City hidden in Nara.
18:03Next, we came to Sarusawa Pond in Nara Park.
18:10This is a place where you can see how much power Fujiwara City has.
18:18There is a large temple called Kofukuji in the back.
18:22It's a famous temple, isn't it?
18:24Yes, it is.
18:27Kofukuji is registered as a World Heritage Site as a cultural property of Nara.
18:34Kamatari of Fujiwara City and his son, Fuhito Yukari, also lived in this temple.
18:46There is Kofukuji on the stairs.
18:50It is said that the place where powerful people lived was on the hill.
18:58Powerful people were seen from above.
19:02Osaka Castle is also located in a high position.
19:06Fujiwara City also had a lot of power.
19:09The temple that Fujiwara City opened was also built on a high platform.
19:16I think it's a human truth.
19:21If you have power, you want to go up.
19:26Mr. Ketsuru, we've climbed a lot, haven't we?
19:29Yes, we have.
19:31It's a pretty high place, isn't it?
19:33Yes, it is.
19:35Only the upper part of the hill is Kofukuji.
19:40In the old days, the lower part of the hill was the site of Kofukuji.
19:48There is the prefectural office of Nara.
19:51The prefectural office was also the site of Kofukuji.
19:56Kofukuji is a huge temple with an area of 25,000 square meters.
20:01However, according to the Kofukuji-Kasugasha scale map, which was drawn around 1760,
20:08the scale was several times larger than it is now.
20:12The current Nara National Museum, Nara Prefectural Office, and Nara Hotel
20:18were also the sites of Kofukuji until the order of the Meiji government to confiscate the land was issued.
20:26This time, we were allowed to enter a special place.
20:29It's that building over there.
20:32Over there?
20:33Yes.
20:34It's a place where deer come in, so please be careful.
20:41It's rare.
20:42It says Minami over there, so it's Nankendo, right?
20:45That's right.
20:46It's a vineyard.
20:47This is a building in the north called Hokuendo.
20:52This is a temple built by Mr. Fuhito of Fujiwara
20:56when he was in his first term after his death.
21:01Fuhito, the son of Kamatari of Fujiwara,
21:04was the leader of the Heijo-kyo Zoei and Ritsuryo system,
21:08and he built the foundation of Fujiwara's prosperity,
21:12which led to the birth of the Nara period.
21:17The Hokuendo, which was also designated as a national treasure,
21:22was built in Fuhito's first term after his death.
21:27Fujiwara will continue to prosper from now on.
21:31He was the one who built the foundation of Fujiwara's prosperity.
21:36I see.
21:38The prosperity of Fujiwara comes from Mr. Kamatari,
21:43but it also comes from Mr. Fuhito.
21:47That's right.
21:48Mr. Fuhito was like the pinnacle of growth for plants.
21:55The number of branches grew from here.
21:59People say that a circle is not a circle at all.
22:04I see.
22:05It's a hexagon.
22:07In the old days, a hexagon was almost a circle.
22:11I see.
22:12If it's a hexagon, it means prosperity.
22:16It represents everything.
22:18I see.
22:20Mr. Fuhito of Fujiwara built a Chukondo.
22:27Chukondo?
22:28Yes.
22:29It was reconstructed in 2018.
22:37Chukondo stands at the center of the Kofukuji Garan.
22:41It was reconstructed over and over again.
22:44In 2018, it was restored to its original size for the first time in 301 years.
22:52It's been 301 years, but it still looks old.
22:57That's right.
22:59I think the architectural style of the Tenpyo era has been reproduced.
23:05I see.
23:07The ceiling is high.
23:10Yes.
23:11Excuse me.
23:14It's different from other buildings, isn't it?
23:18It's relaxed.
23:19There's nothing extra.
23:22That's right.
23:23The space is used in a luxurious way.
23:28It's used in a luxurious way.
23:30Yes.
23:31I think this area also symbolizes the power of Mr. Fuhito of Fujiwara.
23:37That's right.
23:40Chukondo was built by Mr. Fuhito.
23:43The size of the building was the largest in Nara at that time.
23:50Kofukuji, the temple of Mr. Fujiwara, which has expanded from Mr. Fuhito.
23:56It is said that Kofukuji had the land equivalent to the land of Nara Prefecture.
24:11What?
24:12The land equivalent to the land of Nara Prefecture.
24:15It's not strange to say that it's the land of Kofukuji.
24:18That's right.
24:20I was surprised to hear that.
24:22That's right.
24:24I've been to many temples.
24:28Everywhere I go, I'm told that this is the land of Kofukuji.
24:34There are many famous places in Nara.
24:36Yes, there are many places.
24:38For example, there is a shrine, a temple, and a company.
24:42Is that all?
24:44Originally, it was the territory of Kofukuji.
24:47I was surprised to hear that.
24:49There are about seven prefectures.
24:51That's right.
24:53During the Heian period, Kofukuji was as powerful as the country of Yamato.
24:58Muromachi-bakufu of Kamakura took the place of Kofukuji.
25:06Kofukuji became the ruler of one of the Yamato prefectures.
25:12The scale of Kofukuji's rule is said to be equal to that of the entire Nara Prefecture.
25:20The greatness of Kofukuji is not just its size.
25:24Is that so?
25:26I was surprised to hear that it's the entire Nara Prefecture.
25:31It's not just that?
25:32It's not just that.
25:34It is said that 15% of Japan's Honyarara is here.
25:41Wait a minute. It's difficult.
25:45There is a place where it's packed.
25:48I see.
25:51We came here to find the answer.
25:54It's a building in the territory of Kofukuji.
26:00Here it is.
26:02It looks like it's full.
26:05It's displayed here.
26:09It's like a national treasure.
26:14Yes.
26:15About 15% of the national treasures in Japan are in the Kofukuji.
26:25This is the history of Kofukuji.
26:28This is the history of Kofukuji.
26:34It's well-balanced.
26:36It has a powerful face.
26:39That's right.
26:41This is quite famous.
26:44This is a Tentouki.
26:46It's called Tentouki and Ryutouki.
26:49It's written as Oni.
26:50It means evil spirit.
26:52It's like a symbol of instinct.
26:57It's like a symbol of instinct.
27:02It has a light on its head.
27:09It illuminates the way for Buddha to walk.
27:16It's a bad being, but it's trying to be useful.
27:23There are few such spirits.
27:27It looks like a bad face.
27:29That's right.
27:31It's a bad being.
27:33It's a bad being, but it's trying to be useful.
27:37Next, let's look at a very famous national treasure.
27:42This is a very famous person.
28:00This is a very famous person.
28:05Next, let's look at a very famous person.
28:11This is a very famous person.
28:16This is Ashura statue.
28:18It's on the textbook.
28:20It's on the textbook.
28:21Everyone has seen this Ashura statue.
28:25It's a national treasure of Kofukuji.
28:30Among the national treasures in Kofukuji,
28:34Ashura statue is a popular statue as a masterpiece of Tenpyo sculpture.
28:40I've been looking at your face.
28:44You look like you can communicate with people in the modern world.
28:48You look like you can communicate with people in the modern world.
28:50It's a little bit sad and a little bit hopeful.
28:56It's a little bit sad and a little bit hopeful.
28:58It's a little bit sad and a little bit hopeful.
29:03The fact that there are so many national treasures in Kofukuji
29:08shows the great power of Fujiwara.
29:14The children of Fujiwara Fushito
29:19are the ones who will develop.
29:24The children of Fujiwara Fushito are the ones who will develop.
29:29The journey to find Fujiwara's roots.
29:33The journey to find Fujiwara's roots.
29:36This is the Hokkeji Temple.
29:41I heard that there was a residence of Fujiwara no Fuhito around here.
29:46Yes.
29:47And the daughter of Fujiwara no Fuhito was called Komyo Kogo.
29:55She was bright.
29:56Yes, that's right.
29:57That's right.
29:58That person built a temple in the place where her father lived.
30:06That was the beginning of the first Hokkeji.
30:09The daughter of Fujiwara no Fuhito built a temple in the residence of Fujiwara no Fuhito.
30:13Yes, that's right.
30:16About 1,300 years ago, Hokkeji was built after the residence of Fujiwara no Fuhito.
30:25This is the place where the greatest person, Heijo-kyu, lived.
30:29And right next to it was the house of Fujiwara no Fuhito.
30:34It's written in this much space, but it's actually quite spacious.
30:39I think it was a considerable residence.
30:42In the era of Fujiwara no Fuhito, Fujiwara no Fuhito took power at once.
30:48There was a reason for that.
30:50There was a person named Komyo Kogo, the daughter of Fujiwara no Fuhito.
30:55This person became the emperor's son-in-law.
30:59I see.
31:02So there was a political scheme.
31:04That's right.
31:06Do you know who the husband of this person, Komyo Kogo, was?
31:14Well...
31:16He was the emperor.
31:17That's right.
31:18I don't know.
31:20He was called Emperor Shomu.
31:22Oh, yes, yes.
31:23He was the great Buddha of Nara.
31:25Yes, that's right.
31:27Fujiwara no Fuhito made his daughter the daughter-in-law of Emperor Shomu.
31:35From the point of view of Fujiwara no Fuhito,
31:37he made his daughter the daughter-in-law of the emperor.
31:42That was the most important thing in politics at the time.
31:47So it started from that time.
31:50That's right.
31:52It's the era of the drama.
31:55Yes, that's right.
31:58After the middle of the Seiken era,
32:01this political marriage was transferred to Kyoto.
32:07In addition, the four sons of Fujiwara no Fuhito,
32:11the second son of the Fujiwara family,
32:14had great power.
32:18Because of that, the power of the Fujiwara family increased even more.
32:23Yes, it did.
32:25I see.
32:28The Amadera temple was built by Emperor Shomu's son, Kōmyō Kōgō.
32:34It was called Hokkeji.
32:36At that time, there were two Kondo and two Gojū towers.
32:40The scale of the temple is now several dozen times larger.
32:45Gohonzon is a 11-sided Kannon Bodhisattva statue
32:50that depicts the figure of Kōmyō Kōgō.
32:56This is the center of the temple.
32:59Gohonzon is inside this Ozushi.
33:03Usually, it is a relic.
33:05I see.
33:06There is a person who looks like Gohonzon on the right.
33:10In other words, they are your friends.
33:13Yes, they are.
33:15I like this person who looks like Gohonzon.
33:19I see.
33:21It is said that Kōmyō Kōgō was the model of this Kannon Bodhisattva statue.
33:31Since then, Fujiwara no Fuhito
33:33has monopolized the food of Emperor Shomu
33:37and has been experimenting with politics for generations.
33:43Next, let's go to a place where Fujiwara no Fuhito's power has been inherited to this day.
33:51I'm here at Kasuga Taisha.
33:54Fujiwara no Fuhito is gaining more power in Nara Prefecture.
34:00The capital will be moved to Kyoto after this.
34:04At the same time, Fujiwara no Fuhito's power will be transferred to Kyoto.
34:10I see.
34:11Fujiwara no Fuhito's power in Nara is enormous.
34:18I'd like you to feel how much power he had in Nara.
34:24Actually, this is my first time to come to Kasuga Taisha.
34:27Is that so?
34:28Yes.
34:29Can you see the color of Fujiwara no Fuhito from here?
34:37Yes, I can.
34:39It's full of Kōmyō.
34:45On the journey to find the roots of Fujiwara no Fuhito in Nara,
34:49we visited Kasuga Shrine,
34:52which has about 3,000 shrines in Japan.
34:57Kasuga Taisha is a World Heritage Site.
35:00It was built in 768 to pray for the protection of the Heijō-kyō and the prosperity of the people.
35:09It is dedicated to Ujigami-sama of Fujiwara City.
35:15As we enter the shrine,
35:18the path is divided into two.
35:21Yes, it is.
35:24Many people go to the right.
35:26This is the general path on the right.
35:29On the left, there is a path called Kensaki-michi.
35:32Kensaki means the end of the prefecture?
35:34That's right.
35:35This is the path used by the people of Fujiwara City.
35:40Is it a special road?
35:42Yes, it is.
35:44The path is divided into two.
35:51The tip of the road is shaped like a prefecture.
35:55It is called Kensaki-michi.
36:01This is a special entrance to Fujiwara City.
36:05Even today, people of Fujiwara City go to the main shrine through this path.
36:17This is called Keiga-mon.
36:20It is a magnificent shrine used by the nobles of Fujiwara City.
36:30This is the place where the flowers of Fuji bloom in spring.
36:37I see.
36:38I feel the presence of the people of Fujiwara City here.
36:42That's right.
36:44Mr. Kofukuji is the Ujidera of Fujiwara City.
36:49Mr. Kasuga is the Ujigami of Fujiwara City.
36:54Mr. Ujidera and Mr. Ujigami.
36:56Yes.
36:57Originally, there was an era called the Shinbutsu Shugo.
37:01The gods and the Buddha lived together.
37:04Mr. Kofukuji and Mr. Kasuga lived together in the same way.
37:10It is said that Mr. Kofukuji still comes to visit Mr. Kasuga and prays to him.
37:19Mr. Kofukuji and Mr. Kasuga lived together and helped each other.
37:24That's right.
37:25There is such a history.
37:26Yes.
37:28Mr. Kasuga and Mr. Kofukuji, who became one as the Ujigami and Ujidera of Fujiwara City and protected Heijo-kyo.
37:38Even now, on January 2, Mr. Kofukuji visits Mr. Kasuga and prays to him.
37:50In addition, after Mr. Fujiwara moved to Kyoto,
37:55there is a relic of Mr. Kofukuji's relationship with Nara.
38:01This is Mr. Kasuga Wakamiya.
38:06Is that the one on the left?
38:08That's right.
38:10That is Mr. Kasuga Wakamiya's Wakamiya-sha.
38:14Wakamiya-sha is located in the south of the main temple.
38:21It was after the Heian period in Fujiwara City.
38:25Mr. Tadamichi of Fujiwara was a great man.
38:31There was a time when leprosy was popular.
38:35At that time, Mr. Wakamiya, another god, was going to have a festival.
38:42I see.
38:44That's when the Kasuga Wakamiya Onmatsuri began.
38:48I see.
38:49The festival at that time is depicted in this work.
38:55In 1136, the Kasuga Wakamiya Onmatsuri was held
38:59by Mr. Tadamichi of Fujiwara City.
39:05It has been going on for nearly 900 years.
39:13Mr. Wakamiya used to come down to the field
39:20and hold such exhibitions.
39:24Mr. Kofukuji was involved in the management of the Kasuga Wakamiya Onmatsuri.
39:34There were 1,000 people involved in the festival.
39:38About 50 horses were involved.
39:43That's a large scale.
39:44Yes.
39:46Mr. Fujiwara was involved in the management of the Onmatsuri.
39:58The scale of the Onmatsuri is unique to Fujiwara City.
40:01The Kasuga Wakamiya Onmatsuri is a symbol of that scale.
40:08Nice to meet you.
40:09Nice to meet you, too.
40:11Please come in.
40:13Some of the dadaiko were used in the past, right?
40:17Yes, they were.
40:18Here they are.
40:20Wow.
40:24Dadaiko were used in the Wakamiya Onmatsuri from the Kamakura period to the Showa 51.
40:32They are 6.58 meters high and are the largest in Japan.
40:40They were sculpted from Kamakura materials and are now designated as national treasures.
40:51It must have been hard to bring the dadaiko to the front and make the sound.
40:58It must have been hard to imagine all those steps.
41:03Yes, it must have been.
41:06It must have a history of 900 years.
41:11There is something else that proves that Mr. Fujiwara and Mr. Nara had a relationship in Kyoto.
41:22That is this mirror.
41:27It is called Sumon-kyo.
41:29It is a mirror without patterns.
41:32Only characters are written on it.
41:35Mr. Michinaga's son, Mr. Yorimichi, came to visit in February of the 8th year of the Kanko period.
41:47It is said that Mr. Michinaga's son, Mr. Yorimichi, died in this mirror.
41:51It is said that Mr. Michinaga of Fujiwara died in this mirror.
41:55It is a mirror without patterns.
41:57Sumon-kyo.
41:59This character is similar to Mr. Michinaga's character.
42:04It is said that his father drew the character and made the mirror for his son's visit.
42:13Mr. Michinaga and Mr. Yorimichi were the top movie stars in Fujiwara.
42:19However, Mr. Fujiwara gradually gained power in Nara.
42:27He came back to Kasuga Taisha and became popular.
42:33It is said that Mr. Michinaga and Mr. Yorimichi traveled around Kyoto and Nara.
42:40Mr. Gouji of Kasuga Taisha is said to be a descendant of the Fujiwara family.
42:47He is said to be a descendant of the Fujiwara family.
42:50He is said to be a descendant of the Fujiwara family.
42:58Is it still going on?
43:01The Fujiwara family is scary.
43:07Mr. Gouji of Kasuga Taisha is said to be a descendant of the Fujiwara family since the Meiji era.
43:14Currently, Guji, Kasannoin, and Hirotada are also the descendants of Fujiwara.
43:23Now that we know the roots of Fujiwara, let's go to Tetsuo's recommended Nara shop.
43:32We came to Shinomiya, one station away from Kintetsu Nara Station.
43:38This shop is called Enzu.
43:41The word Enzu is a Buddhist term.
43:46Three minutes' walk from Shinomiya Station.
43:49The taste of the season, Enzu.
43:53The owner is Mr. Nakayama, who was a first-class kappo.
43:57It is a specialty shop chosen by Bib Gourmand as a special edition of Michelin Guide Nara 2022.
44:06I'll have this as a reward for my hard work today.
44:09Thank you very much.
44:14I'll have the soup stock.
44:16It's delicious.
44:21It's delicious.
44:22I'll have a bite.
44:25This is a whole zucchini dengaku.
44:28A zucchini dengaku?
44:30A whole zucchini dengaku.
44:33I'll have the first dish.
44:35Thank you very much.
44:36This is a whole zucchini dengaku.
44:39A zucchini dengaku?
44:42The first dish is a whole zucchini dengaku.
44:46It is a zucchini with a strong taste and a lot of moisture.
44:51It is a special miso-based dish.
44:55I'll have it with Nara's local sake, Kujira no Reishi.
45:02Zucchini?
45:03Yes.
45:04Zucchini is ripe.
45:09It's delicious.
45:10Thank you very much.
45:15I see.
45:17It's refreshing.
45:19It goes well with it.
45:20It goes well with zucchini.
45:21Next is Managatsuo's Saikyo-yaki.
45:25I like this.
45:27Is that so?
45:29This is Managatsuo in Kansai.
45:33This is a miso-based dish.
45:41It's delicious.
45:42Thank you very much.
45:44I'm glad that you like my style.
45:48This goes well with Japanese sake.
45:51That's right.
45:52It goes well with Japanese sake.
45:54It's sweet and goes well with Japanese sake.
45:57What does that mean?
45:59It means that the truth of enlightenment is transmitted to everyone.
46:02You've been taught so far.
46:05I came to a place that has nothing to do with Fujiwara City.
46:08By the way, do you have anything to do with Fujiwara City?
46:12I'm sorry, I don't.
46:27Next time, I'll explore Fujiwara City.
