Geocache Description:


The Ikitsuki Daigyoran Kannon Statue is the largest bronze statue in Japan. The statue was completed on 29 April 1980 and stands 18 meters tall.  It weighs 150 metric tons. It rests on a 3 meter stone foundation, inside of which one can find a Buddhist altar.  I particularly like that the statue is holding a basket of fish, a feature I have not seen in any other Japanese buddah statue.  The micro cache is hidden outside the entrance.  Please check spoiler picture and hint for clues.
