Lamium amplexicaule, a popular spring wildflower of the mint family, is called 'Hotokenoza’ (Buddha's seat) in Japanese, since its foliage reminds us of Buddha's lotus seat. In the viewfinder it looked as if little Buddhas were standing upon their seats and looking around the world.
Lamium amplexicaule (henbit or henbit dead-nettle) is a winter annual herb native to Eurasia and northern Africa, and has spread around the world, including Japan, probably with agriculture.

Quinta dos Loridos, where the impressive Buddha Eden - the largest oriental garden in Europe, can be found. The oriental garden with around 35 hectares of land was created as a reaction to the destruction of the Buddhas of Banyan, in which one of the greatest acts of cultural barbarity took place, erasing masterpieces of late-period Gandhara art.

The Big Buddha is a large bronze sculpture of Buddha, completed in 1993, and located at Ngong Ping, near Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island, Hong Kong.
The sculpture's base is a model of the one in the United Kingdom. One of the five large Buddha images in China, it is enthroned on a lotus on top of a three-platform altar. Surrounding it are six smaller bronze images known as "The Offering of the Six Devas" that are posed offering flowers, incense, lamp, ointment, fruit, and music to the Buddha, representing the Six Perfections of generosity, morality, patience, zeal, meditation, and wisdom, necessary for Enlightenment in life.
The 34 m (112 ft) tall image weighs over 250 metric tons (280 short tons), and was constructed from 202 bronze pieces. In addition to the exterior components, there is a strong steel framework inside to support the heavy load. Visitors have to climb 268 steps to reach the Buddha. The Buddha's right hand is raised, representing the removal of affliction, while the left rests open on his lap in a gesture of generosity.

At the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple once more... Each time a visit to the temple my luck seems to turn around with unexpected windfall. Looks like it's a blessing when I capture their images. Hopefully those who view it will be blessed with luck as well. The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple stands out as a tourist attraction down town in the heart Chinatown.
