We were all shocked by the performance of Guanyin in the Spring Festival Evening. In fact, there is a shocking Guanyin statue in Dazu stone carving, which can be said to be one of its representatives. So where is Guanyin in Dazu stone carving? How can I get there? Today, Bian Xiao from Chongqing Baozhong will tell you.

Chongqing Dazu stone carving is the general name of all stone carvings in Dazu area. They were founded in the early Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty, with about 50,000 statues. They were listed on the World Heritage List in 1999, representing the highest level of grotto art in the world from the 9th century to13rd century. These statues include Buddhists, Taoists and Confucians. The emphasis of the statue varies from place to place. The most famous are Baoding Mountain and Beishan Mountain, which are dominated by Buddha statues. 1. Where is the Goddess of Mercy in Dazu Stone Carving? There are such statues in Shengshuiyan, Beishan and Baoding Mountain here, but Baoding Mountain is the most spectacular and familiar. Its statue is located in the south cliff of the Giant Buddha (Giant Buddha Bay) in the Baodingshan Grottoes in Dazu, Chongqing, and was excavated in the Southern Song Dynasty. It is the largest masterpiece integrating sculpture, painting and gilding in China. It was restored in eight years and reopened on 20 15. 2. Brief introduction of the statue. This statue of Baoding Mountain was excavated in the middle and late Southern Song Dynasty. On the cliff face of 88 square meters, nearly a thousand hands, eyes and utensils were carved, painted and gilded, as proud as peacocks. It's dazzling and shocking. Because avalokitesvara plays a certain role in various sects of Buddhism, and the sufferings and difficulties of all sentient beings are varied, and the needs and desires of all sentient beings are also different, this all-round bodhisattva image that can save all the sufferings of all sentient beings has emerged. Although it is often used as thirty-two or forty-eight hands to show its thirty-two disguised forms and forty-eight wishes, there are 830 hand eyes carved on Baoding Mountain, which is worthy of the name. 3.
