Stand before the Kamakura Great Buddha at Kōtoku-in — a serene, centuries-old bronze Amida that now sits outdoors after its hall was swept away, creating a unique sense of history and calm. You can walk right up to the statue to appreciate its scale, then wander the quiet temple grounds and nearby streets of historic Kamakura.
