12/26.- Hangzhou, Lingyin Temple, Peak Flying from Afar Buddha Statue

On the way to and from the Temple, visitors pass the famous rock carvings on "Peak that Flew from Afar". The statues are more than one thousand years old. Some of them were destroyed by students during the Cultural Revolution.

The Laughing Buddha, in the picture, is one of the most famous carved statues in the area. Rubbing the belly of this Buddha will make your wishes come true.

Another of Hangzhou's attractions is the Tiger Spring.
