The Takaoka Daibutsu (Great Buddha of Takaoka) is a bronze seated statue of Amida Buddha located at Daibutsu-ji Temple in Otemachi, Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture.
Overview
Inside the base is a corridor displaying paintings of hell and other scenes, and in the central room sits the head of the wooden Great Buddha that was destroyed by fire in 1900. The Takaoka Daibutsu is considered a masterpiece of the craftsmanship of Takaoka bronze artisans and is an iconic tourist attraction in Takaoka City. It is designated as a tangible cultural property of Takaoka City.
It is considered one of the three great Buddhas of Japan, along with the Nara Daibutsu and the Kamakura Daibutsu. It is also one of the three great Buddhas of Etchu Province, along with the Kosugi Daibutsu and the Shogawa Daibutsu. During the Edo period, the three Great Buddhas of Japan—the Nara Great Buddha (approximately 14.7m tall), the Kamakura Great Buddha (approximately 11.39m tall), and the Hokoji Great Buddha (Kyoto's Great Buddha, approximately 19m tall, destroyed by fire in 1973)—were collectively known as the Three Great Buddhas of Japan.
It is said that in 1933, when the poet Akiko Yosano visited Takaoka, she described the Takaoka Great Buddha as "even more handsome than the Kamakura Great Buddha," and it is known for its refined features.
