Did you know there are more than half a dozen larger-than-life Buddha statues in Aichi Prefecture?! A popular figure in Tokai city, the largest of them all is Shurakuen Buddha (pictured) standing at 18.79m tall. Completed in 1927 to commemorate Emperor Showa’s wedding, visitors to the statue can explore the surrounding park, visit the indoor pool or baths, or simply enjoy a cup of matcha while admiring the gardens at Omeian tea house. ?
