We took a bus from Chengdu to Leshan and stayed two nights at the Jiazhou Hotel . A reasonable 3-star hotel for around RMB 200 a night. It is a km from the Giant Buddha. The entry fee was RMB60 per person to see the Giant Buddha, well worth the cost. There are many sites to visit once inside the... more

春节期间我和家人一起去了举世闻名的乐山大佛，还记得乐山大佛、凌云禅院、九曲—凌云栈道、巨型睡佛等巧夺天工的雕像或建筑。还留恋乐山美味的西坝豆腐、翘脚牛肉、黄焖鸡、钵钵鸡。那里，风景优美，民风淳朴，听导游讲大佛立于三江汇合之处，犹如“定江神针”一般，乐山少有灾祸。真的是我佛保佑啊，我希望我也能得到佛的庇佑。 more

乐山大佛其实是我去玩峨眉山的时候顺路去的，距峨眉就半小时的车程，11块。去了之后感觉挺好的，所以给大家推荐一下！给人的整体感觉像是一个庞大的自然森林公园。四处很干净，因为绿树环蔽的关系，空气很清新怡人。大佛和峨眉山相比，简直是玩似的就爬上去了，上面的景致其实也是很不错的。一望无际的水，让人不由地有一种圣洁朴素的朝圣心情。大家纷纷... more

我一直记得小时候看的电影<神秘的大佛>,印象最深的就是大佛和变脸了! 一来到乐山,古老的寺院、神秘的大佛和满街头的串串,都让人印象深刻； 还有一个有意思的事：在乐山市问了几次路,乐山人不说方向，只说左右！ more

2007年7月,我们由上海出发去四川旅游.到了四川,第一个选择去的地点便是乐山. 从成都坐车2小时就到了乐山。7月是旅游旺季，买门票就排了很长的队伍。。。听导游讲，如果想从山顶走栈道下到大佛的脚下，要排队3小时！不过难得来到这尊世界最大的佛像面前，不去看看，说什么都是遗憾了。 一路上山，看见路边有许多佛像手上挂... more
