  3. A small store behind Hannya-ji, cashing in on Nara's famous daibutsu (大仏), has created a 'Great Buddha soda'. The big ball of hair is cotton candy, which can be eaten or used to sweeten the (already sweet) drink🤪🥤

  4. After only a few weeks of prayer gold was discovered in March 747 in Mutsu Province.

    The emperor wished to build a grand temple for Kannon closer to Nara, but Rōben insisted that they continue to worship on the sacred rock formation.

    In 749 Ishiyama-dera (石山寺) was officially founded, continuing to double as a lumber (and now gold) distribution site for Tōdai-ji.

  6. In 747 the casting of the Great Buddha (大仏) began in Nara after fire and earthquakes ruined the first attempt in Shigaraki.
    It took 6 years in total (745-51) to complete the Daibutsu. Casting alone took 3 years and used all the available bronze, almost bankrupting the country.

  7. "The colossal statue of Vairocana of copper and gold, whose domed head towered up into the clouds...fused with the heat, so that its full moon features fell to the pavement below, while its body melted into a shapeless mass."
    -Chapter 5 (1180), the "Heike Monogatari" (平家物語).

  8. 😇 THE GREAT BUDDHA📏

    Tōdai-ji's (東大寺) Daibutsu (大仏) is the largest bronze statue of the Buddha Vairocana (大日如来 'Dainichi Nyorai') in the world.
    The "Great Buddha" weighs 550 tons and is 14.98m tall...the head alone is 5.33m wide, the ears 2.54m long, and the eyes 1.2m wide!😲
