Wuxi|It turns out that so many people come to Lingshan to touch the Buddha's feet

🚗Lingshan Grand Buddha is located at No. 1 Lingshan Road, Mashan Town, Binhu District, Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province. The Buddha faces Taihu Lake to the south, leans against Lingshan Mountain to the north, with Qinglong (Mountain) on the left and Baihu (Mountain) on the right. On November 15, 1997, the Buddha was completed and consecrated, standing 88 meters tall, making it the second tallest giant Buddha statue in China; including the three-layer base, it reaches a total height of 101.5 meters. The Lingshan Grand Buddha statue used a total of 725 tons of copper, and the Buddha's body is assembled and welded from 2000 cast copper panels. 🚗The Lingshan Grand Buddha stands 88 meters tall, 17 meters taller than the Leshan Giant Buddha in Sichuan, which is known as 'the mountain is a Buddha, the Buddha is a mountain.' It is the second tallest giant Buddha statue in China; including the three-layer base, it reaches a total height of 101.5 meters. The Lingshan Grand Buddha statue used a total of 725 tons of copper, and the Buddha's body is assembled and welded from 2000 cast copper panels. Each copper panel is 6-8 millimeters thick, with the largest area being more than 20 square meters. The total unfolded area of all the copper panels can reach more than 9000 square meters. The lotus seat of the Buddha consists of four layers of lotus petals, with 22 petals per layer, totaling 88 petals. 🚗During holidays, the place is really packed with people, I never expected so many people to come to touch the Buddha's feet... Some even go as far as licking it, haha... Truly a display of the various aspects of human nature...
