20050716CHINA - Le Shan

I like Le Shan not because of the Big Buddha. The furnished pinky face of the Buddha doesn't look good. It was time consuming to wait on the long queue to descend to the Buddha feet. There are several attractions around which are well worth to visit. The ancient Ma Hao tomb buried inside the dug-out hill is a peculiar culture tradition.
