Guanyin of Nanshan, Buddhist monument in Sanya, China
The Guanyin of Nanshan rises 108 meters from a lotus platform on Guanyin Island, featuring three distinct faces and intricate gemstone decorations.
Construction of the statue began in September 1999 and required six years to complete, with the official unveiling ceremony taking place on April 24, 2005.
Each of the three faces holds different sacred objects: a sutra representing wisdom, a lotus symbolizing peace, and prayer beads signifying compassion.
The statue connects to the mainland through a 280-meter bridge, which leads visitors to a 60,000-square-meter plaza and surrounding theme parks.
The structure incorporates 100 kilograms of gold, 120 carats of South African diamonds, and thousands of precious stones including rubies, sapphires, and emeralds.
