  Leshan Giant Buddha (Da Fo)

  Leshan Giant Buddha, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996, is an 8th-century marvel. Standing at a towering 71 meters, it's the world's tallest stone Buddha. Carved from red sandstone, it sits at the confluence of the Min, Qingyi, and Dadu rivers. The project, led by Monk Haitong, took 90 years to complete. The Buddha's features are remarkable, with 27-foot-long fingers and 23-foot-long ears. Despite facing pollution and weathering, restoration efforts keep it grand. A must-visit for its cultural and historical significance! You can choose a walking tour (about 3 hours) or a boat tour (about 1.5 hours) according to your physical strength and communicate with the guide. One of the scenic spot tickets or cruise tickets is included in the package. It is important to note that the Leshan Government is renovating the right side of the Giant Buddha before April 30, 2025. Part of the Giant Buddha will be obscured by construction facilities. It may affect your visiting experience.
