Описание к видео Cool Japan Echizen 越前大仏 Daibutsu (Seidaiji Temple

This video was taken from NHK Cool Japan and features the Echizen Daibutsu, located in Katsuyama City, Fukui. I appear after 1 min 9 seconds. I have shorted the full episode. Video taken via a mobile phone.

The 17-meter-tall Echizen Daibutsu in Shindaiji Temple is the tallest sitting-Buddha statue in Japan and yet it’s history is very short – built in 1987 by a local businessman. It is an extremely beautiful building and the surrounding structures and woodlands are magnificent. Some of the structures are based on ancient Chinese designs. Since 2002, Seidaiji has served as a Rinzai Zen temple.
