Leshan Giant Buddha is located in Leshan City, Sichuan Province, at the intersection of Minjiang River, Qingyi River and Dadu River, facing Leshan City across the river. Leshan Giant Buddha is carved on the rock wall at the intersection of Minjiang River, Qingyi River and Dadu River. Also known as Lingyun Buddha, it is a Maitreya Buddha. Leshan Giant Buddha is one of the fine works of art among Mo Yan statues in Tang Dynasty, and it is also the largest stone statue of Maitreya Buddha in the world. The sitting posture of the giant Buddha with his hands on his knees is solemn, with hidden drainage facilities and ingenious design. The Buddha statue was carved in the early kaiyuan year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (AD 7 13). It was initiated by monk Haitong in order to reduce the water potential and save all beings. After Haitong died, his disciples took over the construction. It lasted for 90 years until 19 (AD 803) when Zhenyuan in Tang Dezong was built. It is praised by the poet as "a mountain is a Buddha, and a Buddha is a mountain". The Giant Buddha consists of Lingyun Mountain, Mahaoyan Tomb, Wuyou Mountain and giant reclining Buddha landscape, covering an area of about 8 square kilometers. The scenic spot belongs to Emei Mountain Scenic Area, which is a national 4A-level scenic spot and a famous scenic spot. In ancient times, there was a saying that "Emei went to court and Lingyun went to court".
Leshan has a good economic foundation and is a key area of Sichuan's economic development.
