Leshan Giant Buddha Visit (Choose One Option)

Option A — Mountain Walking Route

Walk from the riverside entrance to the historic scenic path. Climb past sites such as Longqiu Cave, Tiger Lair, and Zaijiu Pavilion, eventually reaching the top platform where you stand just 20 meters from the Giant Buddha’s head—perfect for close-up photos. After taking in the panoramic views, follow the same path back down.
(Selection required before tour departure.)

Option B — Boat Cruise Route

Take a sightseeing cruise along the confluence of the three rivers. From the water, you’ll enjoy a full frontal view of the entire 71-meter Buddha, stopping directly in front of the statue for photos. You’ll also enjoy views of the cliffs, temples, and riverside scenery.
