Where is there a large statue of buddha carved into the rocks along the bank of a river?
I have this picture, of a large buddhist statue, at least 200 feet tall, carved into solid rock. The rock is reddish brown in color. On either side there is a smaller statue recessed into the rock. The smaller ones are maybe 50 feet high. In the foreground there is a rushing river.
If the statue is in a sitting position, then you are looking at the Leshan Giant Buddha in China.
The remarkable statue, on the east bank Minjiang River in Leshan City of Sichuan province, was carved out of a hillside in the 8th century and looking down on the confluence of three rivers the Minjiang, Qingyi and Dadu and at its back is the western slope of Lingyun Mountain. It is the largest siiting Buddha in the world. Top at 232 feet with shoulders 79 feet wide it is an impressive sight. A water drainage system reduces erosion by rain and slows weathering.
The statue was begun in 713 A.D.and completed in 803 A.D., the 19th year of the reign of the Tang Emperor Dezhong. To the right of the statue a plank road with turns was built and it is now famous as the nine-turn plank road; it goes from bottom to the top.
It is Included in the UNESCO world heritage list in 1996.

Buddha Carved
Buddha Statues: Exceptional Postures Of Utmost Relevance And Excellent Message by Terro White
Decor and the symbolism of Buddhism have been intertwined for centuries. Today, it is not uncommon to see craftsmen and souvenir shops dedicated to the Buddha. Buddha statues can now be made-to-order and bought ready-made at stores across the planet. The symbolism is no more associated to South East Asia only. It is now flaunted in homes and offices across cultures, societies and geographical boundaries. The most popular Buddha statues include:
* The sitting posture
* In deep contemplation
* Laughing Buddha
* Medicine Buddha
* Meditating Buddha
* Buddha on the lotus blossom
* The self realized one
* Abhaymudra or the one who has conquered all fear
* Bumisparsa or the one ingrained in the Earth and humankind
* The reclining posture
There are Buddha statue made of every conceivable material too. You can find the extensive use of ceramic, clay, metal and porcelain in the making of the statues. They are carved to depict a phase in the Great sage's life and each statue is infused with a special look and color combo. It is not uncommon to see the elements of Feng Shui being integrated with the exhibits. The most popular metal Buddha statues that you can shop for online as well as offline include those made of metal alloys, pure gold and copper. The statues are also available in granite, sandstone and wood of many types - rosewood, sandalwood, and mango wood.
Symbolism of Buddha figurines
The statues of the Buddha are very symbolic even to those who have no connectivity to the teachings of Buddhism at all. Today, due to various contemporary art forms and belief systems, images of the laughing Buddha are part of nearly every home or office. The statues of the Enlightened One in just about any pose are said to bring in happiness, prosperity and good will into the living or work space. The Buddha statues are believed to work as lucky charms. They are commonly viewed as part of contemporary and traditional Japanese style of art, as popularly as they are now part of tapestries seen in rustic country homes of the West.
The symbolism of the buddha pendants is more about the attributes and persona of the saint than about the belief system that stemmed after his death. The white Buddha statue made typically in poly-stone and the traditional resin Buddha statue from Japan adorn homes and offices across the globe for the tranquility they are known to add to décor and aesthetics. Likewise, different Buddha statues are known to depict different attributes. For example:
* The Medicine Buddha - healing physical and mental diseases
* Contemplative Buddha - quest for enlightenment
Today it is not at all difficult to access handicrafts boutiques and exhibitions online and offline to buy antique Buddha figurines and statues. The symbolism is significant, known to usher in positive vibes, and a sense of calm, peace, self realization and harmony. Buddha statues connect with divinity and mental discipline to a large extent. The aura and ambience of serenity and tranquility that these statues fill the living space with cannot be denied.
