We will start distributing autumn limited special GOSHUIN from October 1st (Tue.).
It is a double-page spread with a 1-page spread that depicts the golden Great Buddha of the past, colored by autumn leaves.
These are limited in number.
Fee: 600 yen
Extremely hot days have been observed this summer as well.
Because the interior of the Great Buddha statue is likely to fill the heat, it becomes high-temperature and humidity than the outside.
Therefore, the day that a heat stroke alert has been issued in Kanagawa Pref., the entry to the interior of the Great Buddha statue will be suspended the afternoon in consideration of visitor’s health and safety.
Thank you for your understanding.
