Hongshan Mountain Buddhas – Silent Guardians of Ürümqi 🗿⛰️

#hellohalloween

High above the bustling streets of Ürümqi stands Hongshan Mountain, crowned not only by its iconic Red Pagoda, but also by a collection of ancient Buddha carvings watching over the city.

These weathered statues, peacefully embedded in the rocky cliffs, create a moment of calm amidst the noise — a place where nature, spirituality, and history meet.
