    I find this strangely intriguing because it’s made from straw? grasses? rather than stone or wood like most statues of Buddha.

    How tall is it? What’s the story behind it and how you come across it?

    Wow, a lot of great images coming out of Fukuoka… The second photo drives home the scale of this thing, I’d thought it was maybe two meters tall until I saw that.
