Echoes in Stone โ€“ The Statues of Yushan County ๐Ÿ—ฟ๐ŸŒฟ

#hellohalloween

Wandering through Yushan County, I found myself surrounded by the quiet grace of ancient stone statues โ€” serene Buddhas, mythical beasts, and weathered guardians standing silently among trees and temples. Each carving felt alive, its details softened by time but still full of spirit and craftsmanship. โœจ

What makes these statues so special is how they blend naturally into their surroundings โ€” moss-covered, sunlit, and part of the landscape itself. Locals say many were carved from nearby mountain stone, linking them deeply to Yushanโ€™s history and faith.
