#roadside religion

A bizarre Buddhism themed roadside tourist attraction on an island off Kobe, Japan that seems to be long forgotten.  A temple facility on the 1st floor turns in a museum on the 2nd and 3rd floor which leads to a restaurant and cafe on the 4th floor to where you will find an elevator to take you up the bowels of a massive Buddha statue to a viewing deck 10 stories up.  See a short video tour here that I made.
