After a final walk in the Chengdu people's park, we drove by bus to Leshan.
After a lovely lunch at local restaurant we visited the Giant Budha. Even in a sitting position he is about 70m tall. His ears alone are 8m tall apparently.
It was beautiful. Not the Budha so much as the whole area. From up top you could see three different rivers meet.
And the whole area was covered in lush scenery and serene temples.
We only had two hours there but I could've easily spent the whole day exploring.
There were a lot of stairs of course, which would've been fine but I had developed a bit of a sniffle making it more difficult.
Unbeknownst to me at the time that small sniffle ended up greatly affecting my travels for at least a week after that. But that's a story for another blog.
P.S. again the photo doesn't actually match so I just put a photo of stairs to symbolise all the stairs we had to climb. Will upload a different one later.
