Ushiku Jōen

牛久浄苑

Ushiku Jōen is a large-scale park cemetery in Ushiku, Ibaraki, on about 370000 square meters watched over by the Ushiku Daibutsu, described as the world's tallest bronze Buddha. Official pages present it as a new complex cemetery beyond traditional graves, with seasonal flower fields and Jūhō-dō for memorial rites, plus guidance on burial, memorial services, Bon rites, and cemetery tours. It is a cemetery park, not a general sightseeing attraction; check tour hours on the official site.
