Kotoku-in, which is exactly the kind of stuff I really love, is a famous Buddhist temple in Kamakura, Japan, known for its iconic Great Buddha statue. This massive bronze figure, standing at over 40 feet tall, is a major tourist attraction and symbol of peace and serenity. Visitors can explore the temple grounds, take in the beautiful surroundings, and even go inside the statue for a unique experience (though here's a tip - don't go inside the buddha on a hot day, it's blazing inside). It's definitely a must-see spot in such a cool area to visit, and I honestly think a day trip to Kamakura should be on everyone's list!
