On Monday I received three postcards: one from Japan, one from Belgium and one from Finland.
The card from Japan shows the temple Toshodai-ji in Nara in the Nara Prefecture.
Nara was from 710 to 784 the capital of Japan. The Toshodai-ji was founded in 759 by the Buddhist monk Jianzhen. The building on the card called the Golden Hall is a National Treasure of Japan. Since 1998 are the Historic Monuments of Nara a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
With great flower shaped stamp:
Spring Greeting (from set of ten) (issued 16-01-2014)
with First Day Special Postmark
Thank You very much Keiko!
