It's an odd question, I know, but I thought I'd ask. For those who need refreshing, the jizo statues often have red bibs. You can refresh your memory (or learn about them) here:

But for those who know them, where have you seen the most impressive ones (or just Jizo that you liked)?

In Nikko, there's a row of several dozen of them, maybe hundreds, along a path through the woods. Each one is supposed to be for a child that died. It's cool with them all stretched out in a row. They're called 並び地蔵 Narabi-jizo, which means lined-up jizo.
Here's a picture of one:
