Giant Buddha

Yesterday we ventured out into the Sichuan Province countryside to the city of Leshan, home of the world's largest Buddha statue. As you can likely see from the pictures, I'm inclined to believe their claim. 


Interestingly enough, Leshan lies on three rivers and looks a lot like Pittsburgh.


Today we're off to the panda preserve in the morning where I believe that several people will be paying a pretty penny to hold a baby panda. Then we fly to Hong Kong in the afternoon. Thankfully, I should be able to make the posts myself from there!
