The Big Buddha is a statue of Maitreya, graceful and magnanimous, and is praised by the poet as "a mountain is a Buddha, and a Buddha is a mountain."

After the Giant Buddha visit, drive about 45mins to Baoguo Temple,One of the national key temples, 533 meters above sea level. The temple faces south and covers an area of 100 mu. Originally the largest temple in the mountains, its original site in the Fuhu Temple opposite the Yoga River, was built in the Ming Wanli years, formerly known as the Huizang Hall
