Japan Big Buddha
Biggest Buddha you've ever seen. In Nara park which has a herd of a bajillion deer that are overly friendly.
Photography Tips
Handheld due to the crowd. Unlike many temples, this one lets you take photos inside. Buy some deer cookies and prepare for action shots with the wildlife.
Travel Information
walk from Nara train station. Follow the crowd. Turn left when you get in the park, or go slight right to the shrine, which is also photogenic.
