Lingyun Mount

Lingyun Mountain (Lingyun Shan) has been a Buddhist shrine since the Tang Dynasty and numerous monasteries have been built at the site over the years. On the hill here is a relatively new temple complex affording excellent views of Dafo himself and containing hundreds of statues.
There is an Oriental Buddha Park (Dongfang Fodu) here which contains more than 3000 Buddhist statues and a 170m long reclining Buddha- which is the largest in the world. The Mahaoya Tomb Mausoleum (Mahaoyamu Museum) is also located on the mountain. This is a Han Dynasty building containing tombs and other burial artifacts from the Han Dynasty.
