日本大佛樣式建築是受到中國南宋時期南方的影響，所形成的鎌倉時代重要的建築樣式之一。黃檗樣式建築同樣擁有中國南方的特徵，它在明代末期受到中國的影響，並形成日本江戶時代新的建築樣式。日本這兩種具有中國南系建築之特徵的建築樣式，與福建地區的建築關係更為密切。此外，臺灣的傳統寺廟建築，從明末清初就開始接受閩、粵兩地建築文化的移植，與上述兩種日式建築有頗多相似之處。本文將以日本大佛樣式與黃檗樣式之建築特徵為主要的探討對象，並以臺灣傳統建築中的寺廟建築作為比較案例。試圖從跨文化的視野，發掘中日文化交流上的實體證據，並重新思考臺灣傳統寺廟建築，在東亞木架構建築文化圈中的獨特性與定位。

Daibutsu-style architecture of Japan influenced by South China during the Southern Song Dynasty was one of the most prominent architecture within the Kamakura period. Obaku-style architecture also under the influence of South China during the Late Ming Dynasty formed the new style of architecture in the Edo period. These two architectural models have a close relationship with the architecture of South China, especially with the Fujian area. Moreover, the traditional temple architecture of Taiwan, a good example of cultural transplantation from Fujian-Guangdong areas, has a lot of similarities with the two Japanese architectural style mentioned above. This essay discusses the architectural features of the Daibutsu-style and Obaku-style architecture in Japan and take several cases of Taiwan's traditional temple architecture for comparative example. lt will be an attempt to present the physical evidence in the Sino-Japanese cultural exchanges and explore the uniqueness and position of Taiwan's traditional temple architecture within the cultural area of East Asian wood-constructed architecture from the new point of view.
