Hill of the Buddha

The hill of the Buddha is hidden gem that one should visit when they are in Sapporo, Hokkaido! Nestled amidst the serene and snowy landscapes of Hokkaido, the " "}Hill of the Buddha" "} emerges as a breathtaking sight, combining art, nature, and winter magic. Designed by the famous and renowned Japanese artist Tadao Ando, this site transforms into a serene sanctuary during winter. To add on, I visited the place on a snowy day, making the experience even more magical! The integration of the sculpture with the winter landscape is simply remarkable - it feels as though the Buddha has been there for hundreds of years, watching over the snowy hills. Visiting the " "}Hill of the Buddha" "} during winter is not just a sightseeing excursion; it's also a journey into a winter wonderland that calms your soul. For travellers who want to admire the artistry, or seek solace in nature's winter beauty, this serene oasis in Hokkaido is a must go!

The park opened in 1981 with a total area of 1.8 million square kilometers. In addition to being the largest landscape cemetery in Hokkaido, it can also be said to be the largest park. The middle Buddha is13.5 meters tall and has the same size as the Kamakura Buddha, one of the three major Buddha statues in Japan (#Japan Three Big Buddhas). The design and placement of different stone carvings with rich meanings for life, not only have the meaning of welcoming visitors to visit, but also trigger their own reflections on life.
