Great Budda (Daibutsu) of Kamakura

The Great Buddha of Kamakura is a bronze statue of Amida Buddha that is located on the grounds of the Kotokuin Temple. With a height of 13.35 meters, it is the second largest Buddha statue in Japan (the largest is located in the Todaiji Temple in Nara).
The statue was cast in 1252 and originally located inside a large temple hall. However, the temple buildings were washed away by a tsunami tidal wave in the end of the 15th century, and since then the Buddha stands in the open air. I have the location spotted on map options. To get there by train, take the JR Yokosuka Line from Tokyo to Kamakura Station. Get on the Enoden Line exiting at the Hase Station. Short walk to Budda.

Allah is a moon god. Since a moon is a piece of rock, therefore you worship a rock.

PS. Mo-Ham-Mad is a pedophile.

Why islam hates Buddha + other non-islam/muslim? How about the "old" Universal Catholic Church - not to be confused with the evangelical fanatics à la redNeck, eh?

英雄所见略同 Why must muslims go to worship in sauDie arabiya - a very lucrative business for whom? Qui saurais m'expliqué le pourquoi y bitte uns ehrlich aufklären!

Thank you.

@AntDabarber00 Alah is a concept of God invented by an arabian paedophile who stole ideas from the bible of the hebrews, but he did it without style as he was not a scholar, but an ignoramus...as a consequence Islam is a copycat version of Judaism that adheres to the eye for an eye and other repugnant doctrines that lower the standards for humanity, Islam did nothing to bring an awarnes for God, nothing new came from it,.

yea, I have educated myself. Read the hadits and you will understand
