Temple of Airjitzu (70751) - The Second Floor of the Temple Goes On

With the Shadow Play complete, we move to the second floor of the Temple. As previously mentioned, the lower level is purely to house the Shadow Play mechanics and there is no play value to the inside of the structure. This is made more apparent by the fact that the second level snaps and connects to the first level (as opposed to other buildings where the levels rest on each other with minimal locating tiles just to keep it loosely in place).

The shell of the 2nd level is quite plain - there is currently nothing inside, though I expect that to change as we progress further into the build. I am going to hazard a guess and say that there will be a dojo of some sort in the Temple, whether it be on this floor or the next.

The exterior looks quite ornate, with the textured wall posts and balustrades. Of course, the entrances are composed of sliding doors, which are very popular in Japan.

 The entrance on the other side of the temple is virtually a mirror image.

And here we see the 2 levels unitized. The circular stairways lead to the sliding-door entrances to the second level. I like the stairways - the color scheme and the pieces used evoke a sense of majestic stone structures, which goes well with the overall theme of an ancient temple.
