The Giant Buddha is situated in the halfway up the hill in the suburb of Rong County, Sichuan Province. It is the second largest stone carving Buddha in China, following the Maitreya Buddha in Leshan. There are two arhats leaning against a fairy peach with one crossing his arms in front of the chest leisurely, while the other one faces the peach without emotion seemingly. These statues show their otherworldly appearance, remaining unmoved by fame and wealth. The layout of these statues is rarely seen in China, and deserves research and study. They have been included in Chinese Art Work Collection - Grotto Sculptures of Sichuan.

Worth going. Not only can you exercise, but also understand Buddhist knowledge. You can also enjoy beautiful scenery. When you climb to the top, you have a panoramic view of the entire Rongxian County. It is refreshing and wonderful!
Rongxian Giant Buddha is located at No. 1, Giant Buddha Temple, Giant Buddha Street, Rongxian City, Zigong City, Sichuan Province, covering an area of about 30,000 square meters. It was built in the Tang Dynasty and is the second largest stone Buddha statue of China's brother, and the third largest stone Buddha statue in the world. It is now a national scenic spot. To protect the Big Buddha and build the Big Buddha Temple, the ancient temples are scattered, and the building is close to the Buddha's face and grand shore. The bird's view of the Rongcheng style, the distant mountains and the nearby scenery, the Buddha Temple is spectacular.
Although the Big Buddha in Rongxian County is not as famous as the Leshan Big Buddha, the volume history is not inferior. There is a loft built in front of the Big Buddha that can be climbed to watch the Big Buddha at different heights at close range. It is a very different experience. The ticket for 10 yuan is very cost-effective. The parking lot and the monastery on the west side of the monastery square are partially under maintenance, and the parking distance is a bit far.
The Buddha is spectacular and the overall preservation is relatively complete. There are not many tourists, you can slowly appreciate it. Worth seeing.
