The Tang Dynasty is generally held to be one of the chief Golden Ages of Chinese history. It was the high point of Buddhism in China, and was the period, coinciding with the late [[Asuka period|Asuka]], [[Nara period|Nara]], and early [[Heian period]]s of Japanese history, when Buddhism was introduced to Japan. Numerous elements of Japanese Imperial government, including architectural styles, the layout of Imperial capitals, and governmental structures and legal codes (e.g. the [[Taika Reform]] of [[645]]), were based upon Tang Dynasty models.
