[Spots] Kotokuin Temple (Great Buddha) and Hasedera Temple
[Visitor] 1 Chinese Malaysian couple
[Attendant] 1 KSGG member
The couple talk with their parents in Chinese, talk in English at
work, and talk with each other in both Chinese and English. So I guided them in Chinese this time. At first we headed for the Great Buddha in
Kotokuin Temple. The husband was
absorbed in taking pictures, and the wife listened to my explanation
eagerly. She even asked a question about
the bronze casting of lotus petals under the Great Buddha. Next we visited Hasedera Temple, where the
peony flowers were in full bloom. The
scenery from its walking path was wonderful and both of them shouted with joy. They were glad to purify their hands by the
water scooped with dippers.
