I have a question for you. At 0:56 people are drinking the water, for a benediction I suppose. But can you take some of this water at home, like we do in church, when it is Christmas or Easter ? Also, it is real gold around the Bouddha at 3:00 ? Very beautiful. Thank you for the two excellents videos *****
Thank you so much. (^-^) That water is intended to cleanse hands and a mouth (Okiyome) before going and worshiping. The person of the video drinks, but most people do not drink, and there is not the person taking home that water.
Around the Bouddha was gilded with real gold. The Great Buddha was completed in A.D.751 and was plated with 430 kg of gold. I still don't know well because the history is so long. Have a nice week !!
