Celestial clear: Japanese duo spruce up world’s tallest bronze Buddha

Emerging from the pinnacle of the world’s tallest bronze Buddha and climbing all the way down to its proper ear, two specialist cleaners gave the imposing Japanese statue an annual spruce up Monday to assist it look its gleaming finest.

Using high-pressure water weapons, the pair blasted mud and chook droppings off the Ushiku Daibutsu monument, which soars skyward over Ushiku, Ibaraki Prefecture.

The 120-meter construction is spruced up yearly by the 2 males, who’ve been entrusted with the job for practically 1 / 4 of a century.
