Our country's "unjust" Guanyin statue, with amazing posture. Visitor: The first time I saw such a Buddha statue
Guanyin Bodhisattva we saw, either sit on the lotus throne or step on the auspicious clouds , , with kind expression, smiling, quiet and dignified. The image of has become a fixed pattern in people's minds. However, in Zhengding County, a famous historical and cultural city in Hebei Province, national key cultural relics protection unit Longxing Temple (also known as the Great Buddha Temple in the locals) was founded in the sixth year of Kaihuang in the Sui Dynasty (586 AD).
In the center of the hanging mountain, has a 3.4-meter-high colored Guanyin clay sculpture, which is particularly eye-catching against the backdrop of rocks, blue waves, gods and arhats. Because it faces north and south, opposite to the main hall, it is called "Inverted Guanyin".
