The Most Surprising Spot in Anyue Grottoes That You'll Regret Missing

📍Address: Compared to the famous Anyue Grottoes like Pilu Cave and Huayan Cave, Gaosheng Great Buddha is easily forgotten and rarely mentioned in travel guides. It is located in Tianfo Village and Dengpo Village, Gaosheng Township, 30 kilometers southeast of Anyue County. It's easy to find, but the road is narrow. 👍️Must-see: The Gaosheng Great Buddha is carved on a cliff and dates back to the Northern Song Dynasty. The main Buddha statue is 4 meters high and represents the "Three Sages of Huayan." Behind the Buddha, there are more than 30 small statues of Bodhisattvas listening to the Dharma. On both sides of the Great Buddha are 3.2-meter-tall Vajra standing statues. 🎟️Tickets: Free. The cultural relics caretaker doesn't allow photography, but you can offer a small maintenance fee, and he will even tell you stories about the site.
