It is the largest carved stone Buddha in the world by far. Begin your tour of the site at the Grand Buddha Temple (Lingyun Temple), which sits behind the Buddha’s giant head . Inside the temple, view intricate sculptures and wall decorations, and then follow your guide down a trail that leads to the base of the Buddha. Get enough good photos of this wonder before head to train station and back to Chongqing.

About Chongqing

Chongqing is a vast hilly city where the Yangtze meets the Jialing in south-west China, known for fiery hot pot, steep streets and a skyline lit at night.

Chongqing spreads across steep hills at the meeting of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers, so its roads climb and drop, cable cars cross the water, and a monorail line passes through a residential tower. It is one of China's four municipalities under direct central control, and it served as the Nationalist government's capital during the Second World War. Hongyadong, a cliffside complex built in the style of the region's stilted houses, is lit up at night.
