The Great Buddha

Explains that cradled by green hills on the shores of the Pacific lies the historic city of Kamakura, a city of ancient shrines and temples, of moss-covered statues and medieval rituals. Points out that the great Buddha of Kamakura has stood there unchanging throughout more than seven centuries. Shows the statue and the city in many moods, with a hint of the eternal truths of Buddhism that lie beyond.
