I've read that the Japanese think of the sun as being red (rather than yellow or orange) -- and since Japan is associated with the (rising) sun, red has positive and national associations.<br /><br />Hi Vicki --<br /><br />Hokokuji is the temple but I think the statue is of Jizo.

Love the knitted hat and bib. I notice that the color of red is commonly used. I'm curious if there is a significance or historical background for it. Red is my favorite color so I like it a lot. <br /><br />Thanks so much for sharing. Have a wonderful weekend. Trekcaprihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00104236389771077449noreply@blogger.com
