Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, Buddhism has taken root in China since it was introduced into China from India. With the development of thousands of years, it has become the belief of a large part of the people in our country. Therefore, besides Buddha statues and temples can be seen everywhere in India, temple buildings can be found in every province and city of China. Among many Buddhist buildings, the statue of Buddha is undoubtedly the most important. So, where is the highest Golden Buddha in the world? How high is this golden Buddha?
In order to express their reverence for Buddhism, believers are very particular about the architecture of temples and statues. For example, the "Donglin Buddha" located on Lushan Mountain in Jiangxi Province is just like this. The whole Buddha statue is built on a small hillside at the foot of Lushan Mountain, with a total height of 81 meters, of which the Buddha statue is 48 meters tall and has successfully won the throne of the world's highest Golden Buddha statue.
The total investment of Donglin Buddha is about 1 billion yuan, and 48 kg of gold is used to gild the Buddha. Apart from the height of 48 meters, the petals at the base of the lotus platform are just 48. Of course, the number 48 is also very auspicious. It represents the 48 wishes of Amitabha Buddha for all beings in Buddhism. Such careful thinking can't help but make people sigh. It's really delicate!
There is still a long way to go from the entrance of the scenic spot to the small hillside where the Buddha is. In the middle is a row of Tang style buildings and Buddhist temples, which form a clear contrast with the surrounding open terrain. In addition, its architectural style, like most of the architectural styles in the north of China, is symmetrically distributed. Therefore, the whole space is open and close in order, which is magnificent.
Because the Buddha is still about 120 miles away from Donglin temple, a "new Donglin Temple" has been built in this Buddhist building. When friends go to worship Buddha statues, they may wish to return their wishes here. When you arrive at the small square where the Buddha house is located, you will see a long ladder. There are green trees and bamboos on both sides of the ladder. At the top of the ladder stands a golden Buddha, so when you walk on the ladder, you will feel like entering the fairyland.
In addition, the air of Lushan Mountain is very good. There are often large clouds floating on the top of the Buddha. The sun shines on the Buddha, and the golden light spreads around, which will be very sacred and spectacular. In the process of construction, the Buddha adopted the advantages of many families, not only absorbing the advantages of Chinese famous Buddha, but also the advantages of Japanese Kamakura Buddha, revealing a little Japanese style in the modeling. Therefore, is such a place not to be missed!
