Shosoin, located to the north of Todaiji Temple in Nara, is a "miraculous treasure trove" that has protected and passed down 9,000 treasures above ground for nearly 1,300 years. These are not "treasures that survived by chance," but "treasures that have been protected and passed down," woven together through the hearts and hands of people across the ages.
What is the origin of Shosoin? Why were the treasures gathered there? How are they being protected and who continues to protect them?
This is an exhibition event that will walk you through the 1,300-year story of Shosoin, from the Shosoin treasures that you are too embarrassed to ask about now to the future that it foresees.
"Shosoin THE SHOW" will open in 2025, the year of the Osaka-Kansai Expo, under the full supervision of the Imperial Household Agency's Shosoin Office.
The exhibition will unravel the various stories behind the treasures, with the theme of "Weaving Love and Beauty." The treasures will be scanned from 360 degrees and displayed in high-definition 3D digital data, allowing visitors to experience the details and texture of the treasures in a realistic way.
In addition, the scent of "Ranjatai," an aromatic wood that was highly coveted by Oda Nobunaga, has been scientifically analyzed and faithfully reproduced. The scent of the Shosoin treasures that fascinated the rulers of Japan will be on display for the first time at the exhibition venue!
Please come and visit the world of "The Story of Shosoin," which has spun a long history and will continue to be spun from today to the future.
