Having an extra day in Tokyo following business meetings it was quite easy to use Google Maps to come up with train instructions to get to Ushiku Daibutsu. It was a great morning and easy to self guide. There are absolutely beautiful gardens, a pond and the inside of the statue was quite unique with all of its offerings. At one point I just lay down on the grass in a garden and stared up at the Buddha. At 120 meters, he is just awesome! I spent approximately four hours at this venue and could have used another two to explore more of the grounds. With travel time from Tokyo by train you really need to allocated the better part of the day in my opinion. I would revisit if given the chance.

The museum was updated in 2015 is much bigger, brighter and more informative than it used to be. Although virtually everything is in Japanese, even if you don't speak the language I suspect you will get a feel for what happened in 1985 with the JAL flight JL123 crash. (For a more detailed visit & English, try to arrange a visit to the JAL Safety Promotion Center near Haneda Airport). A visit to Irei-no-Sono is recommended before travelling to the JL123 crash site itself, about 40 minutes drive away,
