Todaiji is very impressive. It is definitely worth the effort to make arrangements to see it, if you ever come here to Japan.
I second that. I have never seen such a massive structure, and the building around it is even better. I love Nara in general, including the deer park and other attractions.
At Todaiji, there is also a famous hall apart from the Great Buddha called the Nigatsudo or “February Hall”. The views there are amazing, but also the hall is enriched with early Japanese Buddhist tradition.
its greatest effort of Bu
by the japanese buddhists on behalf of Indians and World Buddhists,we all to share love and peace and integrity
What a beautiful statue!I would love to visit there.
they look like cute little white q-tips.
