安樂寺八角三重塔

日本長野上田

位於日本長野縣上田市安樂寺本堂後的高地,是日本現存唯一八角三重塔。創建於日本南北朝時代(1336~1392)。該塔原為供奉佛舍利而建,後將佛舍利移至金堂,塔成為金堂的附屬建築。安樂寺於鎌倉時代(1185~1333)由臨濟宗僧樵谷惟僊開山,是信濃(今長野)最古的禪寺。室町時代(1392~1573)末期曾一度衰退,桃山天正八年(1580)以曹洞宗寺院再興。因樵谷惟僊曾入宋求法,故推測該塔係仿中國塔造型所建。一九五二年指定為日本國寶。
 該塔為八角三層樓閣式塔,高18.8公尺。第一層重檐,每層檐上皆鋪柿板,檐角起翹,整體為禪宗樣建築。第二、三層八面均以細緻的角材,配置等間隔並排的直櫺窗。第一層塔內中央砌築八角形高台,安置束腰須彌座,供奉大日如來坐像;四周環列八根圓柱,柱頭上承闌額、二跳斗栱、蜀柱等建築構件,上方挑高設嵌板頂棚。
