DescriptionFukusaiji, one of Nagasaki's Chinese-founded Obaku Zen temples, lost its temple buildings in the 1945 atomic bombing. In 1979, the Bankoku Reibyo Nagasaki Kannon was erected to commemorate victims of the atomic bombing and those who died in war, and to pray for peace. The silver-colored, 34-meter-tall standing Jibo Kannon rises above a turtle-shaped mausoleum and overlooks the city of Nagasaki. Visitors can enter the grounds free of charge from 8:00 to 17:00.
