Kotoku-in Temple (Daibutsu) - National Treasure - Kamakura-shi, Kanagawa Japan
The Daibutsu at Kotokuin is known as Kamakura Daibutsu.
The height is 11.31 meters (13.35 meters including the base) and the weight is about 121 tons. The construction of the bronze statue of Buddha as it appears today dates from 1252.
Kamakura Daibutsu is the only statue of Buddha in Kamakura that is designated as a national treasure.
The whole statue was gilded and placed inside of Daibutsu-den or the great Buddha hall when it was completed. It is now an outdoor Daibutsu because the Daibutsu-den building was destroyed by earthquakes and tsunamis.
This is a very popular place to visit, especially during the spring when the trees are all in bloom. The structure is amazing to see and you can go inside of it to see how it’s constructed.
Admission is 300 Yen with an additional 50 Yen if you go inside of the Buddha. It’s well worth a visit.
