[Ibaraki] The world's largest and most impressive Great Buddha

If you go to Ibaraki Prefecture, this is a place you definitely want to visit. The Ushiku Daibutsu is 120 meters long and is certified by the Guinness World Records as the tallest bronze statue in the world✨️ Its size is overwhelming😳 No matter how many times you look at it, it has a powerful and beautiful appearance😌 You can even enter the womb of the Great Buddha. The interior is 5 stories tall. Various experience contents are available on each floor, so you can enjoy a tour of the womb of the Great Buddha. The "Petting Zoo" is held on Sundays and holidays (closed in December and February). You can feed chicks and goats, interact with small animals such as squirrel monkeys and owls, and there is also a place where you can hold small animals such as small rabbits and hamsters for an additional fee♡ The "Monkey Stage" where cute monkeys perform acrobatics is held every day except Fridays (only held on Sundays and holidays in December and February). Also, from mid-April to late May, Iceland poppies, Shirley poppies, cornflowers, and diamond-shaped flowers bloom, and in autumn, cosmos decorate the feet of the Great Buddha, so you can enjoy picking flowers🌸 The cherry blossom season is also very beautiful, and there are plenty of events that can be enjoyed by children and adults throughout the year✨️ The pride of Ibaraki Prefecture residents🥰 Ushiku Great Buddha 2083 Kuno-cho, Ushiku City, Ibaraki Prefecture 300-1288 Opening hours 9:30-17:30 #Ushiku Great Buddha #Ibaraki Prefecture #Introducing the best views in Japan
