Rainbow Mountain Buddha Introduction
The Rainbow Mountain Big Buddha is located on Xinkai Road in Liugui District, also known as the "Liugui Big Buddha." It was established by the Rainbow Mountain Religious Foundation and construction began in 2000, taking 15 years to complete, officially opening for public visitation in 2015. The Big Buddha stands at 20 meters tall, nearly seven stories high, and was cast using 167 tons of bronze. The statue is magnificent, with a serene and compassionate expression, and when viewed up close, it presents a majestic and imposing presence. In front of the Buddha, there is a worship platform with a large bronze incense burner and a bronze altar, featuring traditional and luxurious designs. Visitors can ascend the stairs to reach the Big Buddha at the top. In recent years, the Big Buddha has become a landmark and popular photo spot in the Liugui area. Behind it, there is a temple, and the corridor is home to the 12 Zodiac Vajrapani Bodhisattvas (12 Yaksha Generals), representing the 12 zodiac signs. Everyone is welcome to come and admire the Big Buddha. It is recommended to spend about one hour here, where you can enter the Buddha statue for a visit or explore the beautiful craftsmanship of the buildings and statues in the park.
