Fukui's Echizen Great Buddha: A Breathtaking Array of Buddha Statues

In Katsuyama City, Fukui Prefecture, I finally visited the long-awaited Echizen Great Buddha. The wall full of Buddha statues is simply breathtaking 🥺🥺 There are over a thousand of them! It was my first time being surrounded by so many Buddha statues. Wrapped in the stillness and the slightly tense atmosphere, my spine naturally straightened. The temple grounds, not just the hall, had an atmosphere that felt like it could be in China, giving me a taste of traveling abroad ✨ Traveling by car to the Echizen Great Buddha was convenient, so I recommend renting a car. There is an admission fee of 500 yen, but it's a very impressive spot worth seeing!
