Unique Experience of Viewing the Buddha from the River

Embarking on a cruise to see the Leshan Giant Buddha offers a gentle encounter with this ancient marvel. No strenuous climbing is required—just drift along with the current, letting the river breeze guide you to understand the profound meaning of 'The Buddha in the mountain, the mountain in the water.' Here, slow down your pace, meet the Buddha's gaze, and find a resonance between nature and your soul amidst the roaring river sounds. The Leshan Giant Buddha, officially known as the Grand Maitreya Stone Statue of Lingyun Temple in Jiazhou, also called Lingyun Buddha, stands 71 meters tall. It is the largest and tallest cliff-carved statue in the world, located at the confluence of the Minjiang, Qingyi, and Dadu Rivers in Sichuan. ⛴️ Note: Cruise operations are subject to water levels.
