How would you like to build the "Temple of the Golden Pavilion," a popular Zen Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan?

Laser-cutting technology allows you to build the world-famous structure in more detail than ever before, and it's the perfect display piece to show off your papercrafting skills! Detailed color instructions and a folded display case included.

Paper Nano models are made of laser-cut paper. Carefully punch each piece out of the labeled cards. Then curl, fold, and attach with tabs or glue as instructed. Be patient and have a steady hand! Suggested tools for the build include tweezers and an X-Acto knife. Keep some clear-drying glue on hand, and possibly a toothpick for application. Includes pictorial build instructions.

Tools and glue not included. Ages 12 and up.

Zoe ★★★★★

Spent three evenings on this and the golden roof detail alone was worth it—every tiny piece clicks into place with satisfying precision. My fingers were sore by the end, but seeing the finished pavilion on my shelf makes me want to buy another one.

Alexander X. ★★★★★

The laser-cut pieces fit together so precisely that even the tiny eaves of the golden pavilion lined up perfectly on my first try. I've built other paper kits before, but the detail on this Zen temple is genuinely next-level, and the finished model looks stunning on my shelf.

Isabella ★★★★★

Finally got this assembled after a few patient evenings—the laser-cut pieces fit together so precisely that the little golden pavilion actually stands on its own. It's tiny but the detail on the roof layers is incredible for a paper model.
