Ming Dynasty Buddha statues exposed from Heilongtan Reservoir in Renshou, Sichuan. How many monuments are there under the Black Dragon Pool?

In addition to the Buddha statues in the Ming Dynasty, there are Buddha statues in the Tang Dynasty, cliff tombs in the Han Dynasty and ancient caves under the Black Dragon Beach in Renshou, Sichuan.

As we all know, the heat this summer is far better than in previous years. Because of the continuous hot summer weather, water levels in many rivers in Sichuan and Chongqing have plummeted. As far as Sichuan is concerned, Leshan Giant Buddha, located in Leshan, Sichuan, once attracted attention because of the sudden drop of water level in front of the Buddha. Some people even say that Leshan Giant Buddha was exposed because of the drop in water level? The real body? . Since Leshan Giant Buddha is always exposed to water, this statement was later dismissed as nonsense.

Recently, however, a Buddha statue did appear in Meishan, Sichuan, because the water level dropped. The real body? . According to relevant reports, the specific location of this Buddha statue is Heilongtan Reservoir in Renshou County, Meishan, Sichuan. It is reported that this kind of Buddhism is called? Stone Cliff Statue of Thousand Buddhas in Sixin Village? It was built in the Ming Dynasty. This Ming Dynasty Buddha statue is about 16 meters high and 7.2 meters wide. There are also some small Buddha statues next to this Buddha statue, which are said to be from the Tang Dynasty.

In addition, there are some caves where ancient people lived and cliff tombs in the Han Dynasty. It can be seen that there are quite a few historical sites hidden under the Heilongtan Reservoir. The reason why these monuments are submerged in water is actually because of the construction of Heilongtan Reservoir. Being flooded, few people know that there are historical sites here. However, this is not the first time that this Ming Dynasty Buddha statue has surfaced. It happened once ten years ago. It was only ten years ago that the local cultural relics department knew of its existence and registered it.

In other words, it is thanks to the previous recorded information that we can clearly know the age of this Buddha statue and other historical sites. The reason why there are so many historical sites hidden under the water of Heilongtan Reservoir is related to the fact that Heilongtan was once a traffic artery in ancient times. When traveling, I hope to get home safely, so the ancients will carve Buddha statues here and pray for a safe life and a safe journey.
