What travelers say:

The Sendai Grand Guanyin is also quite high in the Japanese Buddha world, seemingly second only to the Niu Jiu Buddha in Ibaraki Prefecture (120 meters), and higher than the New York Goddess of Liberty (93 meters). The height is about 100 meters, it is said to have come because of the 100th anniversary of the construction of Sendai City (1889), and the construction was completed on September 1, 1991 (Pingcheng 3). The face of Sendai Grand Guanyin faces Sendai Station, which has the meaning of protecting the city. The builder of Daguanyin is the president of the local construction company, and the construction in the neighborhood is developed by him. Although the company has been acquired, Daguanyin is still operated by the Daguanmi Temple, which is also established at the same time, and continues to guard the city.
