Ushiku Daibutsu is a great bronze Buddha statue located in Ushiku, Ibaraki Prefecture. It was finished in 1993 and it is as big as 120 metres tall, including the 10 m base and 10m lotus platform. You can take an elevator that takes you up 85 m to an observation floor. This statue had the record for the tallest statue until 2002. As of today, it is one of the top five tallest statues in the world, so it is definitely worth seeing it. #Tokyo #daytrip #Buddha #Statue #Japan
