Continuing with this initiative that I have called “Corrosion Tourism, a trip to learn about the beauty and importance of corrosion in iconic structures”, this time we are going to Japan, in the city of Kamakura, to learn about the history of a bronze statue of Amida Buddha, known as The Great Buddha of Kamakura, the second largest Buddha in Japan
This time we head to North East England (UK) specifically to Gateshead, County of Tyne and Wear whose capital is Newcastle, to talk about a relatively new iconic structure known as The Angel of the North. What makes this monument special, apart from its impressive dimensions and construction process, from the point of view of a corrosionist, is the material used.
