Buried Houses of Mount Unzen Disaster
Sunday, October 15, 2023
Unzen Disaster Museum
I quite liked the architecture, with most of the structure underground. It was designed by Kume Sekkei, a large design company that employs hundreds of architects.
The previous post was on shots of Mount Unzen taken on my walk to the museum.

Fudo Myo at Ryusho-ji
At a tad under 14 meters from the ground to the tip of the flames, its not the tallest Fudo Myoo statue by any means but it is still quite impressive.
It's located in front of Ryusho-ji, a Shingon temple, number 64 on the pilgrimage I walked around Kyushu. Its on the lower east slope of Mount Unzen, the active volcano in the center of the Shimabara Peninsula in southern Nagasaki.
Two smaller Fudo statues, with quite distinctive faces, flank the main statue.
Miniature Fudo's left by worshippers are lined up at the base.
