The Tokyo Great Buddha

The Tokyo Great Buddha

GoodNorthern Tokyo · Itabashi Ward

The Tokyo Daibutsu is a large seated bronze Buddha at Jōren-ji temple in quiet Itabashi — far less known than Kamakura's or Nara's, so it stays calm and uncrowded. Cast in 1977, it sits in a pleasant temple garden. A peaceful, offbeat stop in the city's north.
