Situated in a vast open area, the Lingshan Grand Buddha is a magnificent representation of Buddhist architecture and art, and its serene presence has become a symbol of peace and spirituality.

This spectacular display features enormous lotus blossoms, which slowly unfurl to reveal a 7.2-meter golden Buddha statue emerging majestically from the water. The statue, beautifully gilded, has one hand raised towards the heavens and the other pointing towards the earth, symbolizing the Buddha’s divine presence and the spread of wisdom throughout the world. The graceful combination of flowing water, radiant light, and harmonious music creates a deeply immersive experience, capturing the essence of spiritual serenity at this sacred site. Your guide will share in-depth insights into the symbolism, history, and cultural significance of the fountain, enriching your visit with a deeper understanding of this awe-inspiring attraction.
The final destination on your tour is the Brahma Palace, located on Lingshan Mountain. Completed after two years of construction and opened to the public in 2008, this magnificent palace stands as a testament to architectural innovation and spiritual grandeur. The palace’s striking design seamlessly blends traditional Chinese cultural elements with distinct Western architectural influences, creating a truly unique and captivating structure. Symbolizing the vastness and profound depth of Buddhism, the palace embodies the teachings of enlightenment, wisdom, and transcendence.
