A Taste of Japan #15 - Ofuna Kannonji Temple, Kamakura Ofuna Kannonji (大船観音寺) is a beautiful Buddhist temple built on top of a hill in the Ofuna neighbourhood of the historic Japanese capital city of Kamakura. The huge Kannon statue overlooks Ofuna. I actually lived in this neighbourhood for 4 years, so it was a familiar sight for me. Ofuna Kannonji not only features the bust of Kannon, but also a flame from the Hiroshima atomic bomb. The inside of Ofuna Kannonji's statue is like a small museum showing the construction of the statue.
This is the first of several videos of temples in the city of Kamakura.
