Height: 96 m (315 ft) 身高:九六米(315英尺)
The statue of Peter the Great (located in Moscow), an absolute ruler of Russia in 17th/18th c., is also considered to be one of the most hideous buildings in the world (in 2008 it was voted the tenth ugliest
monument by Virtual Tourist). Well...in my opinion it is not as bad as
the Awaji Kannon.
Anyway, no wonder the sculpture is a little lame since initially it was to be Christopher Columbus. The statue's creator - a controversial Georgian artist, Tsereteli- intended to make a monument depicting the
discoverer of America and sell it to the USA, but the project was
rejected by the US Government. So the sculptor replaced the statue's
head and sold it to Russia as a statue of Peter.

Sendai Daikannon stands in Sendai, the largest town in the Tōhoku region in Japan. It was built by one of the Japanese companies in the 1980s, during the bubble economy period, in order to avoid taxes. Therefore, many locals loath the statue - some believe that it is a
symbol of greed rather than faith.
Still it is a great tourist attraction as visitors can be taken to the top by an elevator to admire the spectacular panoramic views of the city.
