That is not Nara, is Kiyomizu in Kyoto Higashiyama area.

I cannot see its intended acknowledgement to the bravery of the men that gave their lives for their country, but rather an acknoledgement to the shameful inability of the generals to reckon defeat - with the war already decided on july 1944, they still were willing to expose japanese soldiers to a certain death, and were counting on exposing the civilian too as their last medium of defense against defeat.Ignacio Agulló Sousahttp://www.grafotema.com/agullo/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246813438162815157.post-80876634644708680352013-09-10T01:46:57.204+05:302013-09-10T01:46:57.204+05:30I came here to say the same!

Google it.<br />And the photos of the equestrian statue and the one above it are from Ueno Park, in Tokyo, and look the same nowadays. The only difference is that the cars are not allowed there. That's all. <br />So am sorry but this collection of photos is not impressive at all. Big disappointment...<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
