What To Expect
Kotoku-in - Great Buddha of Kamakura
Kōtoku-in is one of the most famous and historic temples in Japan, located in the coastal city of Kamakura. It is best known for housing the iconic Great Buddha of Kamakura. The main attraction is the massive bronze statue of Great Buddha of Kamakura (Kamakura Daibutsu). - Height: About 13.35 meters (44 feet) - Weight: Around 93 tons - Built: Around 1252 during the Kamakura period - Pose: Seated in meditation (Zen style) Originally, the statue was housed inside a large temple hall, but due to natural disasters like typhoons and tsunamis in the 15th century, the building was destroyed—leaving the Buddha standing in the open air as it is today. - Affiliated with Jōdo-shū (Pure Land Buddhism) - Founded: Likely in the 13th century - Atmosphere: Peaceful, spiritual, and historically rich Visitors can even go inside the Great Buddha (for a small fee), which is a unique experience showing how it was constructed. - One of Japan’s most recognizable landmarks - A symbol of resilience
