Epic destinations that make you feel small? Leshan’s Giant Buddha. Facing the river, the Buddha has symmetrical posture and looks which have been beautifully captured in its solemn stillness. http://www.chinahighlights.com/tour/chengdutour/cd-8a/ The Leshan Buddha statue, is a slumbering colossus carved into the cliffs (at the confluence of the Minjiang, Dadu and Qingyi rivers, in China’s Sichuan province). The 71-metre statue, sitting serenely by the water with eyes half closed, is the tallest monument to Buddhism in the world (was built in 800 AD). For tourists, nowadays it’s a major draw card, with the statue’s smallest toenail large enough to comfortably seat an adult.
