Undeground Wonder In Fairytale World of Jinfo Mountain

#hikingtime Chongqing-Nanchuan is located in the south of Chongqing, at the intersection of the Guizhou and Hunan economic zones. It is distinguished by excellent geographical conditions, delicate ecology and rich tourist resources. It is popularly called the "backyard garden" of the Chongqing Urban Area. Jingfo Mountain is a 5A National Scenic Area located in the north of the Damao Mountain Range and covers an area of 1,300 square kilometers, with the highest peak at an altitude of 2,238 meters. There are three wonders here: the World Natural Heritage in the form of karst, biodiversity and Buddhist culture. It is a tourist destination that combines sightseeing, recreation, adventure and scientific research. Jingfo Temple is an ancient temple built during the Tang Dynasty, with a 7-meter-high golden statue of Buddha Maitreya. Jingfo Ridge is the main peak of Jingfo Mountain, from the top of which there is a view of the entire picturesque area. Jinfo Cave is a huge karst cave with strange stalactites and stalagmites and an underground river. When entering the temple immediately feels that you are entering another alter world, such kind of feeling. It is dark there, pretty dark around but this shady atmosphere calms down, slows mind, make you feel body weights less. But truly remarkable thing is a long cave with thousand monks sculptures. Why I pointed that those sculptures are so remarkable? The reason is there is no duplication at all! Each one is absolutely different! Like there are no the same two human in our world, in this place you will not find any two similar sculptures or statures of monks. All of then are different. It includes body shape, faces, age, height, skin color, clothes, attributes and objects in their hands. We were absolutely impressed by such masterpiece of amazing work which I will call no doubt as a superior form of art. Highly recommended for visiting! Jinfo Temple is located inside of Jinfo Mountain or Golden Buddha Mountain Scenic Spot, the temple is secured totally undeground, do not miss it!
