The Daibutsuden stands as a masterpiece of wooden construction. Its design employs the Daibutsuyo (Great Buddha style), featuring an intricate system of brackets and colossal cedar pillars to support the immense weight of the structure. The exterior is distinguished by a magnificent hip-and-gable roof adorned with golden shibi ornaments, traditionally believed to ward off fire. The facade showcases wide, symmetrical wooden framework and pristine white plaster walls, forming a majestic enclosure for the Great Buddha.
