Travel Tips for Toyama

The 500 Buddhas

by Mr.Sparkle

As the legend goes, a wealth merchant who lived a long time felt inclined to collect mini Buddha statues when he traveled around Japan, the result is the very interesting area which most people (Japanese or foreign) have ever heard about or visited. Of course its well known to local foreigners, which is how I came to know it.

The area is hidden deep in the mountains, where regular buses don’t go. The only out there is to hire a car, taxi or bike.
