镰仓高德院
非常可能是镰仓(Kamakura)的高德院(Kotokuin)，我一直迟疑为何会写成 Kotukuin。
看到 Betty 的响应，确定是高德院没错，应该写为 Kotokuin。

Kotokuin Temple (Daibutsu)
Kotokuin Temple, better known as Kamakura Daibutsu, belongs to the Jodo Buddhist sect. Construction of Daibutsu, a 11.31-meter-tall gilt bronze seated statue, was commenced in 1252. It was originally covered with gold leaf. The statue sat indoors, but repeated disasters destroyed the building that housed to give the open-air statue seen now. The Daibutsu statue is Kamakura\'s only national treasure that is a statue of Buddha.
