🌟🌟🌟Highlights:
💕Wanfo Cave
More than 700 meters underground Buddha palace, taking pictures📷 is really a must-visit place for taking pictures. The orange light, coupled with various Buddha statues carved in various forms such as round carving, relief, mural, etc., has the taste of Sanshu's pen
💕Tianwang Hall
The Four Heavenly Kings are the Dharma protectors of Buddhism. When combined, they become "wind and rain", even the 9-meter-high giant statue is lifelike
💕Sakyamuni sitting Buddha statue
33 meters high, carved from the original stone, is the largest Buddha in the mountains in the world
💕Medicine Buddha Cave
The whole cave is 45 meters long, the Medicine Buddha is 51 meters high, and is the master of the Eastern Pure Lapis Lazuli World
💕Guanyin Cave
There is a Guanyin 9 meters high, with a graceful posture, elegant and dignified, known as the "Eastern Venus". There is also a Thousand-Hand Guanyin, which looks very dignified
💕Oriental Reclining Buddha
Looking up at the bridge, you can see it. It is 170 meters long and directly uses the external natural mountain body for carving. The middle part retains natural vegetation, like a green quilt
💕Giant Buddha Bay
Surrounded by peaks on three sides, the three-tiered hall comes down vertically, like a dragon chair
🍽️🍛Leshan Delicacies:
Stepped beef🥩 (actually beef offal), Bobo chicken (tastier than the city)
🏨Accommodation:
If you want to be close to the scenic spot and live comfortably, you can choose a hotel near the Grandpa (Leshan Giant Buddha), located at the confluence of three rivers, with convenient transportation, and a hotel that integrates French architectural style. Both high-end and out of the picture.
⚠️⚠️⚠️Precautions:
✅The single purchase of Leshan Giant Buddha and Oriental Buddha Capital is 80 yuan each, but the joint ticket is only 145 yuan/person.
✅The current Oriental Buddha Capital is not the ancient sculpture of the Tang Dynasty, but the restoration by modern people. Inside is the world's largest 170-meter reclining Buddha, which is very shocking.
