Todaiji 9: Koumokuten
Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 25 May 2009 in Architecture.
The god Koumokuten - a fearsome guardian statue at Todaiji temple, Nara.
Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.
I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

He is well fierce, scary if you spend a night in that temple.
