Jade Buddha at Soji-ji Temple in Yokohama

I went to Soji-ji Temple in the vicinity of Tsurumi Station of the JR Keihin-Tohoku Line on purpose. Soji-ji Temple is a prestigious temple which is one of the two main temples of Soto-sect Buddhism. The other is Eihei-ji Temple in Fukui Prefecture.
It is also known as a temple where Yuujiro Ishihara - a very popular actor - was buried.
The purpose is not to visit the actor's grave but to see this graceful statue of Buddha. The statue of Buddha is on his way of a world tour and stopped by Yokohama for a ten-day-stay.
I will write how this statue was made after this show is closed on July 21.
