Frozen Music

 

In the architecture of this 8th century Japanese Pagoda there are several relationships of the Golden Ratio (Phi).

This temple was designed and built carefully so that every detail corresponds to the Golden Ratio of Nature, thus displaying a design aligned with the fractal harmony of the Universe. It is no accident that her beauty is often called "frozen music."
