[2025 Leshan Attraction] Travel Guide for Oriental Buddha Capital (Updated Apr)

#Mainland Travel The Oriental Buddhist Capital, a national 4A-level tourist attraction, is connected to the Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Area through a gate. It is located on the back mountain of the Leshan Giant Buddha and is also protected as a world "dual heritage". It has jurisdiction over more than a thousand acres of forest land. Here there is a 173-meter-high open-air sleeping Buddha lying across the mountains and forests; there is also a magnificent underground palace, which is nearly one kilometer long and can be called the fifth largest grotto in China. There are also tens of thousands of fine Buddha statues gathered here, all of which are sculptures by former professors of Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts. Chinese sculpture master Liu Kaiqu is the founding consultant. The Eastern Buddhist Capital is an extension of the Buddhist culture of the Leshan Giant Buddha, which has greatly enriched the Buddhist cultural content of the Leshan Giant Buddha. It is covered with forests, full of wild fun, and naturally simple. It is worth a visit! ! Detailed address: No. 362 Lingyun Road, Shizhong District, Leshan City, Sichuan

||This article is enough for the guide. There are two ways to visit Leshan Giant Buddha: Mountain climbing: Tickets are 80 yuan; 2. Boat rides: Tickets are 70 yuan. Tickets can be purchased online. 1️⃣Climbing the mountain into the scenic area to reach the Big Buddha is very close. It only takes ten minutes, so there is no need to worry about physical strength. You can see many stone carvings on the mountains on the way, and you can also visit scenic spots such as Lingyun Temple. Lingyun Temple has free incense. There is also a bell ringing next to it that you can participate in. It costs 10 yuan three times. You can also see the wonderful scene of the confluence of three rivers. After seeing the Big Buddha up close on the mountain, you can walk up the stairs to the feet of the Buddha to see the full picture of the Buddha (the stairs were under maintenance when we went there. Friends who must go down can call the scenic spot management office for consultation). In short, there is no time limit on the mountain. You can enjoy it, but the angle for taking pictures is a bit strange. When leaving, it is recommended to exit through the east gate or south gate. There are various tour guides at the door, and you can bargain. We tried our best to negotiate 60, and you can choose according to your needs. 2️⃣You can see the whole view of the Big Buddha by boat. It is relatively close to the other side of the river. When you get to the Big Buddha, the boat will stop for a while and give you time to take pictures. The photo taking effect is better, but the time is fixed. Oriental Buddha Capital: A later-built attraction, you can get there directly from the Big Buddha. If you are interested in sculptures or related culture, you can go in and take a look. You can also take photos. The ticket is 80. I don’t recommend it. After you come out of the scenic spot, there is a car that can take you to the entrance or the bus station. The price is 20 (it seems to be determined based on the distance), but the location is not too far. If you are tired, you can take a seat and negotiate the price. If you are strong, you can just navigate out. Transportation: Chengdu East-Leshan Station, duration is about 45 minutes, fare is 54 yuan. When you arrive at Leshan Station, you can queue up and take a taxi directly. It’s cheap and convenient. The whole journey costs about 25-30 yuan. It’s highly recommended! ! If you take public transportation, you can take bus K1, get off at [Guichengshan Station] and navigate to the north gate. For Didi, the pick-up point is not easy to locate, and the price is around 26. ❗Key point: Choose the taxi terminal [No. 6 Parking Lot No. 2 Door]. This is the door with the shortest walking distance, so you can save a lot of walking. Opening hours: Mountain climbing: 7:30-18:30 in summer (from October 8 to March 31 in winter, the time is 8:00-17:30) Cruise: 7:30-18:00 in summer (8:00-17:00 in winter) The last time is the latest admission time. Tour time: about 3-4 hours. ps: Food in the scenic area is more expensive than outside. A 3-yuan meal outside is generally 6-8 yuan. You can bring it by yourself in advance. Prepare toilet water in summer. You don’t need a particularly long time to visit Leshan Giant Buddha, and various snack streets can be arranged later.

Oriental Buddha capital or 东方佛都。 Many people think it is just a Forest Park with several Buddha stature located behind the Leshan Giant Buddha area. No, absolutely not! This is real miracle. I recommend very quickly finish with Giant Buddha and as quick as possible to move here, because time could be not enough to enjoy everything. I hope trip.com will make every part of this territory as a separate landmark because those artifacts deserved this! Cultural relics and masterpieces shocking even knocking down imagination.

Leshan, hidden in southwestern Sichuan, is renowned for the Leshan Giant Buddha and Mount Emei, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It is a travel paradise where nature and culture blend harmoniously. Here is a carefully crafted Leshan travel guide for you: I. Quick View of Attractions 1. Leshan Giant Buddha: With a majestic height of 71m, it is the tallest stone-carved Buddha statue in the world. You can climb from the North Gate and descend along the winding plank road to the Buddha's feet, enjoying a panoramic view of the confluence of three rivers. Take a boat trip on the river to admire the scenery, with the most charming light in the evening. The mountain climbing ticket is CNY 80, and the cruise ticket is CNY 120 (the night tour is even more stunning). During holidays, the queue for the plank road is long, so it is recommended to arrive before 8am. 2. Mount Emei (30 km from Leshan): Here, the sea of clouds and the Buddha's light at the Golden Summit are like a dream, and wild Tibetan macaques appear in the ecological monkey area. For a one-day tour, you can take a scenic bus to Leidongping and transfer to the cable car to the Golden Summit. For an in-depth tour, you can hike to Qingyin Pavilion - Ecological Monkey Area on the first day, stay at Leidongping, and return after climbing to the top the next day. Tickets are CNY 160, and sightseeing buses are CNY 90 (charged in sections). 3. Lesser-known attractions: The modern stone carving art of the Oriental Buddha Capital and the huge reclining Buddha in the underground palace are visually stunning (ticket price: CNY 80); the Jianwei Jiayang Steam Train travels through the blooming sea of rapeseed flowers in spring, and the journey takes 1.5 hours. II. Delicacies 1. Must-eat delicacies: For Qiaojiao Beef, "Feng Si Niang" and "Gu Shi Xiang" are highly recommended; the crispy and tender Sweetened Crispy Duck from "Zhao Yazi" and "Wang Hao'er Ji Liu Niang"; the authentic Bobo Chicken from "Ye Popo" and "Huang Ji Rou"; the "Jiu Jiu Tofu Brain" in Niuhua Town is served with steamed beef with rice flour and crispy pork, offering a rich taste; and the pork belly and chicken cartilage from Changyao Good Luck Fried Food (Wang Hedi's old shop) should not be missed. 2. Food streets: Zhanggong Bridge is a popular spot for tourists; Jiaxing Road and Dongda Street are the favorites of locals, where you can try Xiaodou Haitang and Jiumei Chicken Feet. III. Convenient Transportation 1. External transportation: From Chengdu to Leshan, the high-speed train takes only 1 hour, and the bus takes 2 hours (departing from Xinnanmen Station); from Mount Emei to Leshan, the high-speed train takes only 11 minutes, and there is also a direct scenic bus (about 1 hour). 2. City transportation: There are tourist bus lines to the scenic spots (such as K1 to the Giant Buddha); the taxi starting price is CNY 5, and it costs about CNY 15 from the city center to the Giant Buddha. IV. Accommodation Recommendations 1. Leshan City: For quality, you can choose "Leshan Chanyi Hotel" (near the Giant Buddha); for high cost performance, the B&Bs near Zhanggong Bridge are a good choice. 2. Mount Emei area: If you want to wait for the sunrise at the Golden Summit, stay at the "Golden Summit Hotel" (reservations are required in advance); at the foot of the mountain, you can choose the "Le Meridien Hotel" or the B&Bs in the Baoguo Temple area. V. Itinerary Planning 1. One-day quick tour: Leshan Giant Buddha in the morning (mountain climbing + boat trip), Qiaojiao Beef for lunch, Wuyou Temple or Oriental Buddha Capital in the afternoon, and a night tour of the Giant Buddha in the evening (light show). 2. Two-day classic tour: Leshan Giant Buddha + downtown food on the first day, and Mount Emei Golden Summit + Qingyin Pavilion on the second day. 3. Three-day in-depth tour: On the third day, go to Jianwei to take the Jiayang Steam Train, or visit Luocheng Ancient Town (boat-shaped ancient street). VI. Gentle Reminder 1. The Jiǔqū plank road of the Giant Buddha is narrow, so those who are afraid of heights or have poor physical strength are advised to choose a boat trip to see the Buddha. 2. Mount Emei has a high altitude, so you need to bring a windproof jacket, and remember to prepare rain gear during the rainy season. 3. Leshan cuisine is spicy, so those with sensitive stomachs should prepare medicines in advance. 4. March - May (when the azaleas of Mount Emei are in full bloom) and September - November (when the autumn is crisp and refreshing) are the best seasons to travel. Leshan brings together natural wonders, Buddhist culture, and Sichuan cuisine, making it suitable for a slow-paced and in-depth tour. Plan ahead and enjoy the unique charm of this "Buddhist Fairyland"!

⛰[Attraction Guide] 📍Address: Navigate directly to Leshan Haoshang Bridge 🚗Transportation: 1. Taxi 2. Car: Park at the Wuyu Temple parking lot (CNY 10 per entry) and walk 5 minutes to the flower fields. 3. From downtown Leshan, take bus No. 3 or 13 to "Wuyu Temple Station" and walk along the river for 10 minutes to enter the flower field area. 🕙Duration: 0.5–1 day 💰Tickets: Free 🌟Highlights: 🌸Spring at Leshan Haoshang Bridge is the most enchanting season along the Min River. From March to April each year, the fields on both sides of the bridge are blanketed with golden rapeseed flowers. The river flows like green silk, and the silhouettes of Lingyun Mountain and Wuyu Temple appear in the distance, creating a poetic scene of "a river winding through flower fields, with Buddha hidden among the green hills." Strolling through the fields, with butterflies and bees dancing around and the fragrance of flowers in the air, this is the most healing spring outing destination in southern Sichuan. 🌸Haoshang Bridge spans the Min River, connecting Lingyun Mountain and Wuyu Mountain. Wuyu Mountain, also known as "Lidui" (with Wuyu Temple, originally built in the Tang Dynasty, on its peak), is a relic of the water management project by Li Bing, the governor of Shu, over 2,000 years ago. The Mahao River was excavated at that time, giving this place both historical and geological significance. 🌸This place is perfect for a light spring hike: Wuyu Temple parking lot → Haoshang Bridge viewing platform → riverside flower path → Lidui roundabout → vegetarian lunch at Wuyu Temple (about 2–3 hours total, easy and relaxing). 🌸It's also a great place for elementary school students or artists who love outdoor sketching to find the breath of spring. 🌸If you have enough time, you can also visit the Mahao Cliff Tombs, Mahao Fishing Village, Oriental Buddha Capital, Leshan Giant Buddha, and Wuyu Temple, all within a short distance. 🌸The beach in the fishing village next to Haoshang Bridge is a great place to see the cruise ships up close, take photos, enjoy the river breeze, skip stones, catch tadpoles, and have lots of fun.😁 📝Tips: 1. **Flowering Season Alert** - Best viewing period: mid-March to early April 2. **Important Notes** - Protect the farmland: Do not trample on the flowers. Walk along the ridges or in designated areas. - Insect and sun protection: Bring mosquito repellent and a sun hat, as the UV rays are strong on sunny days. - Eco-friendly travel: Bring your own garbage bags, as there are no trash cans in the flower fields. 🌻🌿Haoshang Bridge in spring is a wonderful harmony of nature and culture. Here, you can chase the light and shadows in the sea of flowers, listen to the chanting in the ancient temple, and savor the earthly delights in the river breeze. Seize the short spring blossom season and come to Leshan for a romantic encounter with gold and green!

🏨 Leshan Oriental Buddhist Capital ❤Reason for recommendation: This is an important part of the Leshan Giant Buddha Double Heritage Area. It was built in 1989 and has a history of more than 30 years. It has exquisite cliff statues. A national-level sculpture art... Once you see it, you will know it is worth it! 🌟Highlights: A seriously underestimated niche attraction, many people come to Leshan for the first time The Leshan Giant Buddha is a must-see, but I have little interest in the Oriental Buddhas next to the Giant Buddha. , I thought it was just a small attraction that was expanded based on the reputation of the Giant Buddha, but it is actually quite famous! Cliff statues are large and beautiful Tang-style Buddha statues carved directly on the original rocks of the mountain. This method of statue creation must be successful at one time, otherwise it will have to be done all over again. The team is led by national sculptor Liu Kaiqu to guide Sichuan American artists to create it! The word "Buddha City" was inscribed by Mr. Liu Kaiqu, which means that it brings together the essence of Buddhist statues from various countries! The largest Buddha statue in the scenic spot is the giant reclining Buddha that you will see after entering the scenic spot. Particularly eye-catching are the seated Sakyamuni Buddha in the 33-meter cave and the Medicine Buddha standing in the 51-meter cave; There are 9-meter-high stone Buddha statues of the Four Heavenly Kings, as well as a tens-meter-long relief of 800 Arhats, and Patriarch Bodhidharma in cassock, looking back eagerly... The Buddha statues are solemn, handsome, and graceful. Each statue has rich details worth admiring, and there is a wonderful historical story behind each statue! If you go to Leshan, I really recommend checking it out! 💰Per capita consumption: Tickets: 80 yuan, discounted price of 50 yuan for children and students over 65 years old. No need to bundle with Big Buddha, can be purchased separately! ⏳Play time: 1-2h Explanation: 80 yuan for a full explanation, and can be played by multiple people.

(1) Oriental Buddha Capital is next to the Leshan Giant Buddha, but they are two separate scenic areas and require separate tickets. The scenic area is built on a mountain, so you will need to climb. The mountain is not very high, and there are no sightseeing buses. It takes 2–3 hours to visit. The scenic area was built in 1989 and opened in 1994. (2) "A mountain with thousands of Buddhas" is like an ancient and mysterious key that quietly opens a heavy stone door to the secret realm of the Buddha Kingdom. In an instant, a picture is sketched in your mind: a towering mountain with swaying shadows and mist, like a giant Buddha statue carefully cast by nature. The thousands of Buddha statues hidden in it are like sleeping Zen practitioners, sitting quietly in the depths of the cave, exuding an ancient atmosphere, and the mottled traces of time are like witnesses of their vicissitudes; or standing in the cracks of the mountain wall, with solemn expressions, as if meditating on the laws of the universe, or smiling compassionately, as if full of compassion for all living beings. The lush tranquility of the mountains and forests and the mysterious solemnity of the Buddha statues are intertwined, and every inch of air is filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, stirring up people's deep desire to explore the unknown and the traces of the Buddha, like a mysterious call, making people eager to step into this sacred place sealed by time.

📍Attraction address: The Leshan Giant Buddha and Oriental Buddha Park are located on Lingyun Nine Peaks. In the Tang Dynasty, each peak had a temple, but they were destroyed in the war against the Yuan Dynasty, leaving only the Leshan Giant Buddha. Today, the Oriental Buddha Park has restored the Tang Dynasty style. The park is home to a thousand Buddhas and hundreds of caves, making it a model of contemporary stone carving art. [4] The Oriental Buddha Park is an extension of the Buddhist culture of the Leshan Giant Buddha, greatly enriching the cultural content of the Leshan Giant Buddha. 🚗Attraction transportation: Buses and self-driving are both convenient. 👍️Must-see attractions: Underground Palace, Thousand-Hand Guanyin, Medicine Buddha 🎟️Ticket information: CNY 80 💗Other tips: Travel shoes, trekking poles, and many steps to prevent falls.

Location: Leshan Oriental Buddha Capital Opening hours: 8:00-17:30 Admission fee: 80 yuan There is a very large Buddha statue built inside a cave, which is magnificent. You can also walk to the Leshan Buddha, but it is quite a long walk. There is also a ticket booth to the Leshan Buddha for 80 yuan. There are both bas-relief and semi-freestanding sculptures carved throughout the cave. You can walk around and enjoy it leisurely. There are not many people and the air is cool and comfortable. You have to climb the stairs at intervals to go to the various caves, and there are places to sit and rest along the way.

#chinatrip Opened to the public in 1994, East Buddha Park is just 1 km from Leshan Giant Buddha. Oriental Buddha Park, covering an area of over 20,000 m2, is a stone carving theme park that combines religious art, sculpture and landscape design. There are more than 3,000 statues of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the park made of various materials, including stone, bronze, clay and jade. The entire park shows the artistic style of Chinese Buddhism and Buddhism in Southeast Asia. The park is full of huge caves with lots of statues of different sizes, there are just huge ones. Many of the statues look modern. The scale of the work done is impressive. They even made a replica of the statues from the Indian temple of Khajuraho. I liked the statue of Bodhidharma, who "moves from the south", for its seriousness. Bodhidharma moved from India to China and was received by the emperor, who encouraged Buddhism by creating new monasteries and shrines. He informed Bodhidharma about the increase in the number of Buddhist monks. He replied: "Everything belonging to the world is an illusion, monasteries and monks are as unreal as you and me." Then he turned to the wall and began to meditate. When the emperor, completely confused, asked: "Then what is the essence of Buddhism?“Bodhidharma replied: "Emptiness and no substance." Oriental Buddha Capital is a very beautiful green park, it is located near the big Buddha (Leshan Giant Buddha). I highly. There are also some of the largest Buddha statues here, including a huge reclining Buddha carved into a rock and a 33-meter-high statue a sitting Buddha and a large 51-meter-high statue of a standing Buddha. In the park you will have to climb a lot of steps to get around everything, there is also a small temple. You can get to Oriental Buddha Capital in the same way as to the big Buddha in Leshan (Leshan Giant Buddha).

🌈Attractions Introduction: The Eastern Buddhist Capital is connected to the Leshan Giant Buddha through a gate, and both are located in the Lingyun Nine Peaks of Leshan City, which are protected as a world dual heritage site. It has nearly 1,000 acres of mountain and forest land and is a national 4A-level scenic spot with a large group of Buddha statues as its main body. The Buddhist capital of the East, with thousands of Buddhas hidden in the forest and hundreds of caves in the caves; it is the traces of cliff carvings left by modern people, following the style of the Tang Dynasty and using traditional stone carving techniques. Today, it is not an exaggeration to call it the fifth largest cave group in China. Representative attractions: 170-meter giant reclining Buddha, Demon-Subduing Pond, Big Buddha Bay, Ten Thousand Buddha Caves (representative Buddha statues: Heavenly King Hall, 33-meter seated Sakyamuni statue, the route of Buddhism introduced to Leshan and the Eight Hundred Arhats Wall, 51-meter Medicine Buddha, etc.) Southeast Asian Buddha statues (representative Buddha statue: Indian Shiva) 🎟️Ticket related: Adult ticket 80 yuan/ticket Discount ticket 50 yuan/ticket 🕐️Scenic area opening hours: April 1 to October 7 7:30-18:00 October 8 to March 31 8:00-17:30 💗Other tips: Since it is a sacred image of Buddhist themes, you should still view it with respect and avoid making casual comments. If you don’t understand, you can read the brief description next to it and don’t talk nonsense. When taking photos, you should be respectful and solemn, and avoid making any movements that may damage the religious image. You can watch it slowly, and the night view is also quite good at night.

Before the Dragon Boat Festival, I took a trip to Leshan for you all and summarized the following must-visit spots – definitely worth a visit, remember to save this list! 1. Hengfu Wharf 'Leshan' – A must-visit photo spot This signpost is almost a must-share photo in the Moments of friends who visit Leshan. The roses are blooming this season, making it especially beautiful for photos~ 2. Jiāzhōu Ancient City Wall - Lizheng Gate. The city wall built during the Ming Dynasty. The red walls make for a very historical photo backdrop. 3. Jiāzhōu Ancient City Wall - Gongchen Gate. The ancient walls blend with the yellow horn trees. Perfect for taking photos with a sense of story. Beyond the gate is a very artistic alley with lots of cafes and dessert shops, great for spending a leisurely afternoon~ 4. Jiāzhōu Ancient City Wall (below the riverbank) – The trees are lush green this season, making it super vibrant for photos by the river. 5. Shangzhongshun Street (Xitoufang) – There's also a big 'Leshan' sign for photos. Another essential for Moments. 6. Oriental Buddha Capital This is really worth highlighting. Although it doesn't have the historical depth of the Leshan Giant Buddha, the Buddha statues are really exquisitely and spectacularly crafted. Standing under the giant Buddha statues gives you a sense of 'all beings are like dust', and the area is large enough to spend an entire afternoon. It's also the filming location for the movie 'The Storm Riders'. 7. At the exit of the Oriental Buddha Capital's Medicine Buddha statue, the 'Bougainvillea' is really gorgeous! Highly recommended for photos!

The best Oriental Buddha Park I have seen in China so far. Most of the people visit Leshan city to see the stunning Leshan Giant Buddha, but just a few of them know about this amazing attraction. The Oriental Buddha Park has a breathtaking scenery. It’s full of Buddhist statues, sculptures and stone carvings. Also, it is surrounded by beautiful and peaceful gardens. I totally recommend to spend at least half day exploring the Oriental Buddha Park and another half day for the Leshan Giant Buddha. Entrance fee: 80¥ . . . #leshan #buddhism #buddha #attraction #sichuan #scenicspotguide #china

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.

The statues of the Buddhas of the Eastern Buddhism are more than 3,000. They are mainly carved by stone cliffs. They are different from the cliffs of the Qianjiang Rocks in Jiajiang. Qianfoyan was built during the Tang Dynasty. The Eastern Buddhas were later formed by the Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts. Created by the professor of sculpture, the Buddha statues of the Eastern Buddha are in the cave, and the Buddha statue is bigger and more spectacular. The cliff statue is carved directly into the Buddha on the cliff. This skill is very difficult. One mistake is not only the destruction of the entire Buddha statue, but the entire cliff cannot be engraved again. Every Buddha statue in Oriental Buddha is very lively and very shocking. The friends who believe in Buddha must come and see. The Oriental Buddha is not a great project to solidify culture into history.
