3:00 PM Leave the explanations of famous sights to Meta AI.
It is said that there are over 2,000 shrines and temples in Kyoto. Among them, “Tō-ji” stands out as particularly striking. Famous fashion brands sometimes hold runway shows on its grounds, and in recent years, it has become a place where tradition and innovation intersect.
I decided to ask the “Meta AI” built into the “Ray-Ban Meta” about the five-story pagoda that stands in one corner of the grounds.
"Hey Meta, tell me about the Five-Story Pagoda at Tō-ji" (Tsubasa)
"Meta AI" provided me with the history of this five-story pagoda. It is the tallest existing wooden structure in Japan. Standing approximately 54.8 meters tall, it was rebuilt in 1644 during the Edo period and is currently the fifth generation of the pagoda. Incidentally, the second-tallest wooden pagoda is reportedly the five-story pagoda at Kōfuku-ji Temple in Nara (50.1 meters).
Without even taking out your smartphone, you can effortlessly learn about the buildings you see while traveling and the stories behind them. This kind of experience is unique to AI glasses.
