Sunlight and the light of Longmen's Buddha during winter

Updated: 2015-12-29

Warm winter sun has decorated Longmen Grottoes naturally with golden rays, creating a pure and sacred paradise of Buddhism.

Either you watch from a distance or nearby, the grottoes present a gorgeous look with the glory from Buddha.

And under the sun, the benevolent light of Losana Buddha illuminates every corner of Longmen mountains, between which the waves of the old Yi River quiver bars of gold.

One can enjoy the leisure and peace while visiting the exquisite Buddha statues in the sun-splashed grottoes. The sacred light of Buddha eases every heart and awakens the soul with the profound culture and history. In pictures, Longmen becomes timeless under the warm winter sunlight.
