The caves currently opened in the Tianti Mountain Grottoes are the seven Buddhist caves built in the Tang Dynasty. The entire cave is 30 meters high, 19 meters wide and 6 meters deep. The statues in the cave are all stone sculptures. Due to the nature of the Tianti Mountain, the grottoes are based on chisel-shaped, plastic-shaped, carved along the red sandstone wall from top to bottom, and then molded with mud. In the grotto style of the country, a cave of seven Buddhas is rare. The biggest Buddha among the seven Buddhas is the Sangha Buddha statue ------ Sakyamuni Buddha, 28 meters high, the left hand is flat on the knee, Purdue All beings, the right palm is facing forward, fearless of all evil in the world. The oldest and the youngest of the grottoes are the two disciples of Sakyamuni Buddha. The old one is Capricorn, the first of the ten disciples. Because he is an ascetic, the image is relatively old. The philosophical thought is deep. The opposite of him is Xiao An, the cousin of Sakyamuni Buddha, and the dictation of the Buddhist scriptures after the Nirvana. On the left side of the Buddha is Manjushri, who is in charge of great wisdom, and on the right is the Samantabhadra, who is in charge of virtue. The outermost part of the Buddha statue is the two guardian kings, the left side is the northern king of the multi-wisdom king, the right foot is stepping on the ugly little devil. On the right is the Western King of the Eyes, and the footsteps of the symbol of longevity. This Seven Buddha Cave is known as the No. 13 Grotto. I like the cave culture very much. I feel that it is a very happy thing to increase my knowledge while traveling.
