The Jade Buddha Garden
玉佛园
Located in the suburb of Anshan, the Jade Buddha Garden covers 220 000 square metres, the city shelters a Guinness-Record-Winning Buddha carved I ram jade. The world's biggest jade Buddha (Jade King), 7.95 metres high, 6.88 metres wide, 4.1 metres thick, was carved in 1995 from a stone weighing 261 tons. The splendid sculpture, merging seven colours together—three shades of green, yellow, white, black and blue—(the Buddha is bright and dazzling) is an eye-catching artistic wonder produced by 120 jade sculptors in 27 months. It has been listed in tle Guinness Book of Records as the world's largest jade Buddha. The stone came from Anshan's Xiuyan County (the hometown of jade)，which has proven jade deposits of 3 million tons. The huge jade weighing 60 000 tons were also discovered there. Jade artifacts are the best souvenirs for tourists. Due to its unique geological structure, Aashan is rich in geothermal resources. A natural Buddha formed by a whole hill made Mount Qianshan a holy land for Buddhists in Northeast China.
