The Mengshan Giant Buddha should not be buried

In a valley 20 kilometers southwest of Taiyuan
The second largest Buddha in the world is hidden in the Mengshan Giant Buddha
Built 162 years earlier than the Leshan Giant Buddha
But it was lost for 600 years due to war.
Now I travel through time and space to meet you

✅Hiking secrets: shaded by pine and cypress trees, gurgling streams, 3 km of light hiking trails are super healing
✅Photography holy place: Take photos of the Buddha's body from above, and take aerial photos of the mountain, which looks like a reclining Buddha.
