京都高台寺重建客殿11月14日对外开放：原殿1789年毁于火灾，时隔237年重现
日本京都消息，位于京都市东山区的高台寺，其重建完成的客殿于11月14日下午1时起向公众开放。原客殿于1605年自伏见城移建至此，1789年毁于火灾，此次开放距原殿焚毁已有237年。
高台寺由丰臣秀吉的正室北政所（宁宁）于1606年创建，以纪念秀吉。客殿当年是寺内接待贵宾与举行法事的重要建筑。据日本媒体报道，由于原殿没有留下图纸，本次重建属于依据古图与考古发掘成果进行的复原性再建，重建计划推进了38年，工程自2022年动工，耗资约15亿日元，11月10日先向媒体公开。
重建后的客殿为白天开放，常规开放时间为上午9时至下午4时30分。寺方安排显示，客殿在高台寺秋季夜间点灯期间不开放，夜间点灯活动持续至12月13日，院内开放至晚间10时。
高台寺是京都东山一带的重要文化地标，寺内有多处建筑被列为日本重要文化财。此次开放的客殿为当代重建建筑，并非1789年火灾中幸存的原物。
Reconstructed Guest Hall at Kyoto's Kodaiji Temple Opens to the Public on November 14, 237 Years After the 1789 Fire
In Kyoto, Japan, the reconstructed Guest Hall (Kyakuden) at Kodaiji Temple in Higashiyama opened to the public on November 14, starting at 1 p.m. Japan time. The original hall had been moved to the temple from Fushimi Castle in 1605 and was destroyed by fire in 1789, making this the first public access in 237 years.
Kodaiji was consecrated in 1606 by Kita no Mandokoro, known as Nene, in memory of her husband, the warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the Guest Hall served as a venue for receptions and Buddhist ceremonies. Japanese media reported that, with no blueprints surviving, the reconstruction is a restoration based on old drawings and archaeological excavation results; the rebuilding plan had been under way for 38 years, construction began in 2022, the cost was about 1.5 billion yen, and the hall was shown to the press on November 10.
The reconstructed hall opens in daytime only, with regular hours from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. It remains closed during Kodaiji's autumn evening illuminations, which run through December 13 with the grounds open until 10 p.m.
Kodaiji is a major cultural landmark in Kyoto's Higashiyama district, and structures such as its main gate are designated Important Cultural Properties of Japan. The newly opened Guest Hall is a contemporary reconstruction, not a survivor of the 1789 fire.
