Leshan 
 

                                     

Leshan can be called as home of world's largest stone Buddha statue. This colossal staue was carved on a cliff on Soaring to the clouds Hill facing the three rivers. The huge seated figure measures 71 metres from top to bottom, has a head 10 metres wide, a nose 5.6 metres high, ears 7 metres long, and legs 28 metres from knee to foot. The statue, flanked by two armed warriors, represents a highlight in the development of sculpture in ancient China.

Jiuzhaigou 
 

 

                                     

Jiuzhaigou is a narrow strip of lowland, four hundred kilometers long, in the Minshan Mountain Range in Nanping County, northeast Sichuang. It got its name because there are nine Tibetan villages in the valley. The valley is home to a great variety of plants and rare animals, such as the giant panda, lesser panda, golden monkey, and antelope.
