[Spots] Kotokuin Temple (Great
Buddha), Hasedera Temple, and Sankeien Garden
[Visitor] A Thai man
[Attendant] 1 KSGG member
[Language] English
The visitor came to Japan as a referee of the
international table tennis tournament.
He was kind and gentle with smiles.
When we visited the Great Buddha, he was excited and prayed eagerly
because he is from Thailand, a Buddhist country. He was also interested in the joints of the Buddha’s
body, so I explained how it had been constructed. He also entered its body and watched its inside
eagerly. After visiting Hasedera Temple,
we headed for Sankeien Garden. As
contrasted with Kamakura, the garden was quiet and full of green. He delightedly said, “What a good walking
course!” and wanted to visit the garden in the autumn color season again.
