The Maitreya Buddha in "Black Myth: Wukong" Ruiyan Mountain Maitreya Buddha Stone Statue, a national key cultural relic protection unit Located in Ruiyan Mountain Scenic Area, Haikou Town, Fuqing City, Fuzhou Built at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it is known as the "First Buddha in Jiangnan" The Buddha statue is 6.8 meters high, 8.9 meters wide, and 8 meters thick! It is the largest three-dimensional Maitreya Buddha stone statue in China Ruiyan Mountain in Haikou, Fuqing, Fuzhou is indeed an excellent tourist attraction that combines natural beauty and profound cultural heritage. The largest three-dimensional stone Maitreya Buddha statue in China not only amazes people with its majestic posture and exquisite carving art, but also carries nearly 700 years of historical vicissitudes, becoming a cultural treasure in the local and even the whole country. This Maitreya Buddha statue cleverly uses the natural shape of the whole rock for carving, up to 9 meters high, showing the extraordinary wisdom and artistic attainments of ancient craftsmen. Although the years have left mottled traces on its surface, the solemnity and compassion can still deeply touch people's hearts, making people feel a kind of tranquility and harmony beyond time and space. The cliff carvings scattered in the mountains are another beautiful scenery line of Ruiyan Mountain. These stone carvings not only record the changes in history, but also leave the ink treasures of historical celebrities such as Ye Xianggao and Qi Jiguang, providing valuable cultural heritage for future generations. Standing on the point where Qi Jiguang once trained soldiers, overlooking Haikou Town, looking at Fuqing City and even the sea, it is inevitable to feel a lot of emotion, as if you can hear the echo of history in your ears. Today's Ruiyan Mountain, after careful repairs, has become a well-equipped and beautiful 4A-level tourist attraction. Tourists can enter from the front mountain gate, climb up along the Ruiyan Temple next to the statue, and not only can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery along the way, but also feel the strong cultural atmosphere. After reaching the top of the mountain, go down the mountain along the other side of the trail, without going back, this design not only facilitates tourists' sightseeing, but also increases the fun of sightseeing. In short, Ruiyan Mountain is a good place worth visiting. Whether it is for people who like history and culture, or for people who love natural scenery, you can find your own touch and gain here.
