The Fujimi 1/400 Kiyomizu-dera model gives hobbyists the opportunity to recreate a compact version of this iconic temple complex. The kit highlights the structure's architectural elegance and its standing as a UNESCO World Heritage location in Kyoto. The famous projecting wooden veranda from the main hall presents an engaging modelling challenge.
Kiyomizu-dera, known as the "Pure Water Temple", is prized for its scenic outlook and ingenious timber construction. The original building uses traditional joinery without nails, a hallmark of historic Japanese carpentry. Fujimi's components echo these construction details, enabling builders to assemble layered roofs, posts, and the pagoda with faithful scale relationships.
This kit is tailored to modellers who enjoy careful assembly and an attention to finish. Accurate alignment and tidy bonding are important when assembling the many delicate parts that define the temple's profile. When complete, the model becomes a refined display piece suited to collections centred on architecture or Asian cultural sites.
