Kasuga-taisha

Veliko svetište Kasuga (春日大社, Kasuga-taisha?) je šintoistočko svetište u gradu Nara u japanskoj Prefektzri Nara.[1] Prvi put je podignuto godine 768. i dograđivano nekoliko puta, te služi kao glavno svetište porodice Fujiwara. Unutrašnjost je poznata po brončanim svjetiljkama, dok do hrama vode mnoge kamene svjetiljke.

Svetište Kasuga, kao i obližnja Iskonska šuma Kasugayama su od UNESCO-a registrirani kao lokalitet Svjetske baštine u sklopu "HIstorijskih spomenika Drevne Nare".
