The Peak That Flew From Afar

The Peak That Flew From Afar in Zhejiang

It is a state-level heritage because of the 330-stone sculptures dating to Tang and Song times and some mostly to the Yuan Dynasty. Of all the sculptures perhaps the best known is the smiling Maitreya Buddha with loosed robe exposing his pot belly - a work of art from the Song Dynasty. It look so vivid, so lovely and so happy that hardly any visitor will leave without posing for a picture with it.
