Leshan Buddha, also known as Lingyun Buddha, is located at Lingyun Temple on the East Bank of Nanminjiang River in Leshan City, Sichuan Province. It is near the confluence of Dadu River, Qingyi River and Minjiang River. Leshan Grand Buddha Scenic Area belongs to the national 5A-level tourist attraction. The Great Buddha is a sitting statue of Maitreya Buddha. It is 71 meters high. It is the largest stone statue on a cliff in China. Leshan Buddha was excavated in the first year of Kaiyuan in Tang Dynasty (713), and completed in the nineteenth year of Zhenyuan (803), which lasted about ninety years. As a Sichuan native, Leshan Buddha has been there two or three times, including before and after the Buddha "cosmetic surgery". Watching the sleeping Buddha across the river naturally doesn't matter. The Buddha sitting at the junction of the three rivers is very magnificent, but to see the Buddha from a close distance, you have to queue up and down the narrow ladder beside the Buddha. There are also those who look up to the Buddha by boat in the middle of the river. Last year, I went to Leshan and found a good place to see the Buddha, the Dafo Dam across the river. From riverside to Zhongba by boat, and then to Dafoba by boat, the ticket is only 1 yuan, and the return is 1 yuan. There are places for tea and meals on the island, and most of them are for local people to visit the island. It's a little far from the Buddha. It's cloudy on the day we went. If the weather is good, the view is also good. What's even more rare is that it adds to the experience of sailing on the island. If time is enough, how beautiful it would be to make a cup of tea, sit opposite the Buddha and watch the torrential river flow past with the Buddha.

    Traveling with my family, so I didn't choose to climb the mountain, but chose to take a cruise. Tea, drinks, and snacks are all available on the boat. The viewing angle is also very good, and the time to take pictures and watch is given on the front. The river breeze is slowly, the weather is sunny, and the family sits around and enjoys tea. Very pleasant journey!

    Leshan Giant Buddha is amazing and worthwhile. Enter the scenic spot from the north gate, slowly upward, first look at the Buddha's head, then pick up the steps and go down to the Buddha's foot platform, look up at the Big Buddha. From the south gate, I visited Mahaoya Tomb and Wuyou Temple by the way.

    Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Area has to get up at 7:30 in the morning to enter the scenic area. Don't worry about visiting other places first, go to the plank road and cram the Buddha's feet, so that you can enjoy the feeling of not taking a photo. The weather is very comfortable and the drizzle is simmering. Then come up and enjoy it slowly, pay attention to safety first.

    The classic is superb, that is, there is a little rain on the day, there are not many people, the family is very happy, the mountain is not very high, and it is not very tired. The parking lot outside the attraction is not very good, a bit tattered, not very formal.

    It is worth visiting. Very shocking Buddha, there are temples in the scenic area, and the garden design of the whole scenic area is very good. There are temple Buddha statues in the renovation. The transportation facilities are also very convenient, the lights will be on at night, and it is a scenery.

    I am honored to have the opportunity to visit the Leshan Giant Buddha in the off-season. Very shocking Giant Buddha. There is no queue, orderly visit, plenty of activity time, take pictures 📷 you can find your favorite location. Very worth punching in the places of interest. The unexpected harvest is that I also saw the cliff tomb. The scenery of the whole mountain is also very beautiful, a ticket 🎫 is actually visited three scenic spots. For tourists who like to understand Chinese history and culture and appreciate cultural relics, this route can be planned with the Samsungdui Museum and many museums in Chengdu.

    Landmark scenic spot, it is worth taking a look at Leshan, go to the East Gate parking lot, very close to the entrance, there is a free sightseeing car into the scenic spot, you can sit at the entrance of the scenic spot, brush your ID card into the scenic spot. Personally, I think Lingyun Temple is more worth taking time to see than the Big Buddha. The carvings on the wooden doors inside are allusions to the Buddha Gate, which is very artistic and worth watching carefully. If you don't get off the Buddha's feet, you can finish shopping in an hour. Come out and take a sightseeing bus back to the East Gate to pick up the car.

    It is worth going to the Leshan Giant Buddha Tourist Scenic Area, not hard. Climbing to the Buddha's top, visiting the temple, and the scenic car is free to the cruise ship terminal, and it is comfortable and convenient to visit the river to see the Buddha! Dongshan even cruises to see the Buddha, 3-4 hours can be completed. There are many volunteer young militias in the scenic spot, and they enthusiastically answer various questions from tourists, which is greatly praised! !
