Kamakura Daibutsu (鎌倉大仏) Temple (actual temple name is Kotoku-in Temple) is located in the suburbs of Kamakura district of Kanagawa prefecture in Japan. The main attraction at this temple is the very large seated Buddha statue called Daibutsu.
This Daibutsu (Great Buddha) statue was cast in bronze in 1252. The height of the statue is about 35 feet and it weighs 100000 Kilos (100 Tonnes). This statue is the second largest bronze cast, seated Great Buddha statue in Japan. The largest one is in the Todaiji temple in Nara prefecture.
You can also climb into the Buddha statue, through a small and narrow staircase.
The original Daibutsu statue was inside a temple and under a roof but during the tsunami in 1495, the temple was washed away leaving the Daibutsu statue in it's place. Since then, it is decided to build around the statue and the Daibutsu statue has been left as it is, without a roof.
It is a great sight to watch this statue with the great mountain range background.
Enjoy!!!
