【Sichuan・Anyue】The Largest Reclining Buddha Statue of the Tang Dynasty! Wofoyuan

This is Wofoyuan, where you can see the largest reclining Buddha statue from the Tang Dynasty. Not only is it remarkable for its size, but it is also said to be the only example of a reclining Buddha statue with its left side down and face turned to the right (the reason for this is unknown). Encountering this cultural relic, carved into the rock over 1,000 years ago in the mountains, is an irreplaceable experience. The Anyue area in Sichuan Province is home to many other preserved stone cave artworks, making it a perfect destination for a leisurely trip to explore the surroundings. Strolling through the great outdoors is incredibly refreshing, making this spot highly recommended for sightseeing! 🚗Transportation: By car; the author chartered a taxi for the day.
