Renshou Giant Buddha, Buddhist stone monument in Renshou County, China
The Renshou Giant Buddha stands as a stone statue carved into a cliff face within the Niujiaozhai Grottoes complex in Sichuan Province.
The construction of this monumental stone Buddha began in 707 during the Tang Dynasty, six years after the creation of its neighboring Leshan counterpart.
The site contains 101 religious shrines that represent the combination of Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism traditions in Chinese spiritual practices.
Located 60 kilometers south of Chengdu, the monument offers free entrance to visitors who want to explore this national cultural heritage site.
The stone Buddha forms part of the Niujiaozhai complex, which received national protection status in 2006 to preserve its architectural features.
