The Buddha is carved into the cliff at the confluence of the Minjiang, Qingyi, and Dadu rivers. Its superb carving technique makes it an artistic treasure of Tang Dynasty rock carvings in China, and its exquisite design has kept it standing for over a thousand years, earning the saying "The mountain is a Buddha, and the Buddha is a mountain." Carved into the riverside cliff, the Leshan Giant Buddha is about 71 meters high, with shoulders about 28 meters wide, a head about 14.7 meters high, ears about 7 meters long, nose and eyebrows about 5.6 meters long, mouth and eyes about 3.3 meters long, and feet about 8.5 meters wide, with the top of the feet able to seat over a hundred people.
