01:34.040 --> 01:35.984

construction in the mid 15 hundreds at

01:57.797 --> 02:00.019
Tom Yogi temple in Kyoto , the hall was

a central part of the temple with a

02:28.574 --> 02:30.297
influence on the layout of the

02:30.297 --> 02:32.297
remainder of the inner garden . The

02:32.297 --> 02:34.130
entire inner garden was designed

02:34.130 --> 02:36.352
specifically so that the elegant pagoda

02:36.352 --> 02:38.352
could be seen from the interiors of

02:38.352 --> 02:41.420
many of the other buildings . Mm

02:45.140 --> 02:47.307

engraved doors , pillars and other

03:00.486 --> 03:02.319

03:02.319 --> 03:04.541
painted , but only hints of that colour

03:04.541 --> 03:06.708
remained a day . The hall was moved to

03:06.708 --> 03:08.486
the garden in 1905 as the first

03:08.486 --> 03:10.763
