    When I searched for a nearby recommendation to go to Yuri Honjo, it came out, so when I asked a local friend, he took me because he had never been there. There was a signboard for the guide. Is this 〜? When I climbed the hill, I wonder if those buildings are under repair or partially covered with vinyl, so can I enter? Can't you enter a big door? When I think about it, it seems that I open the sliding door by myself, and it's old and huge. ...

    The Great Buddha is powerful, but when you look at the expression, you will calm down. It was nice !!

    It is a statue of Hase Kannon at Hasedera Temple in Yuri Honjo City, Akita Prefecture. Because it is located in the place name Akata, it is commonly known as Akata Daibutsu, and it is said to be one of the three major Hase Kannon in Japan with a height of 9 m. By the way, the other two are Hasedera Temple in Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture and Hasedera Temple in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture. The Great Buddha of Akata was a very glittering Kannon statue with gold leaf on the whole. It has a really calm expression. Hase Dera temple in Yuri Honjo city is a temple founded in 1775 by Taikaku koreyama, a priest of Kameda domain, ...

    I was surprised at the beautiful and really big Buddha.

    It's wonderful. I was really surprised that the Great Buddha said this was free to see for free. When you see the Great Buddha, please open and close the door yourself. The electricity is turned on automatically. I was surprised to see the glittering beautiful Great Buddha. Perhaps it was a cherry blossom, the paintings written on Kido and the ceiling paintings were also wonderful. This is a place I want to visit again.

    Quiet and calm atmosphere

    Original Text

    On the way from Yuri Honjo City to Akita City, I found a signboard of the Great Buddha of Akata and visited to guide me. The door of the main hall is closed, but you can open it yourself. That means that the only visitor is myself. The lights are automatically lit and the eleven-faced Kannon appears. I'm bound by its size and the gentle look down from above for a moment. When you calm down and look around, you will find an overwhelming number of Kannon-sama Buddhas and will be overwhelmed by the thickness of your faith. Kannon-sama Zhou ...
