Tokyo Daibutsu — Jōrenji Temple (乗蓮寺・東京大仏) 乗蓮寺(東京大仏)
13 metres tall, cast in 1977 so that disasters like that of '45 would not happen again.
Jōrenji Temple keeps what Tokyoites simply call ‘Tokyo Daibutsu’: a seated bronze statue, cast in 1977 after three years of work by about 3,500 people. In 1982 it was included among the ‘New Hundred Views of Tokyo’ (新東京百景).
