Sleeping Buddha stretches for about15000m, and its shape is very realistic. Four mountains form the reclining Buddha, with the highest point of 2380m and the lowest point of1908m. An observation deck will be built in the future. Many tourists are puzzled why most of the giant buddhas appear in Leshan, Sichuan, and suddenly realize the reason.

Leshan was originally Nan 'an, and later it was history. In the 12th year of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty (1734), Jiading Prefecture was promoted to Jiading Prefecture, with 7 counties under its jurisdiction. The name of Leshan has been used ever since. After thousands of years of wind and rain, the ancient city of Jiazhou has escaped repeated wars and natural disasters, and there are still historical sites visible today.

It is a matter of course that giant buddhas such as Leshan Giant Buddha and copper river Sleeping Buddha can appear in Leshan.

Speaking of Leshan Giant Buddha, I believe many people are familiar with it. With a height of 7 1 m, this giant Buddha is the largest cliff stone carving in China. It took the ancients nearly 90 years to build this Buddha statue. There is a secret in it, which was actually discovered by an old man named Pan. The old man likes photography. At that time, he was playing in Sichuan and took many photos of Leshan Giant Buddha. As a result, he accidentally photographed this magical scene and unveiled the hidden Leshan Giant Buddha.

In fact, there is a Buddha in this Buddha statue, which many people may not understand. After the original local peaks and trees were reflected in the water, the image of a giant Buddha appeared again. The giant Buddha discovered by the old man lies beside the Minjiang River, with mountains as his body and trees as his clothes. Plants draw their eyes and mouths, and pavilions are built beside their ears, so they are called reclining Buddha.

Recently, the natural reclining Buddha in Leshan stretches across the mountains and the Dadu River. Far more than the largest natural reclining Buddha in China-Nantai Mountain reclining Buddha (5,200m long). According to preliminary exploration and survey by experts, the reclining Buddha is located in Wudu Town, Ebian County. Not only that, but its face value is very, very high. Is it a giant Buddha? Chow Yun Fat? . Let's look at its face first. The facial features are coordinated, the proportion is excellent, and the treasure is solemn; Full forehead and complete bun without losing Leshan Giant Buddha.

Let's take a look at its figure. It is slender and slender, and its posture is beautiful even when it is asleep. A pair of long straight legs straddle the Dadu River and lie leisurely on the top of the mountain. Surprisingly, this giant Buddha is not artificially carved, but naturally formed by overlapping four peaks of four mountains in Ebian, Leshan City. Under the irradiation of sunlight, the outline of the mountain peak is outlined, forming a Buddha with high similarity. Looking back at the light, the Buddha was lying on his back, and his side face was visible sideways.

Locals say the best viewing time is in the morning and evening. Every sunrise and sunset, when the clouds are low, the giant Buddha seems to be held up by clouds, lying in the sky and sleeping quietly, covered with a solemn and mysterious color. Many villagers often worship the Buddha's capacity here and pray for visits. Even people who are not familiar with the Buddha statue can clearly identify the outline of the Buddha statue at a glance.

There is also a legend about this reclining Buddha: when mining under the reclining Buddha Mountain, shipwrecks often occur. Later, some experts pointed out that Jinwanping Village 3 set up a stupa, just opposite the mine. After the completion of the stupa, craftsmen were surprised to find that the mountain shape opposite the stupa happened to be a sleeping Buddha. From then on, the opposite stupa and reclining Buddha guarded the water of the Dadu River, and the legendary copper mine also supported it. Dadu River commonly known as? Copper river? So this reclining Buddha can also be called copper river reclining Buddha.
