 The Leshan Giant Buddha was built during the Tang Dynasty (618–907AD). It is carved out of a cliff face that lies at the confluence of the Minjiang, Dadu and Qingyi rivers in the southern part of Sichuan province in China, near the city of Leshan. The stone sculpture faces Mount Emei, with the rivers flowing below his feet.

School in a Cave in China




is Located in the Middle Cave of

Mountain Lu Feng in Miao Village, Guizhou Province, China





A Remote Chinese Village (Miao, Ziyun County, southwest Guizhou Province) has set up a Middle Cave School - Dongzhong (literally meaning 'In Cave') on November 14, 2007 in a Cave of Mountain Lu Feng





The School is built in a Huge Aircraft Hanger Sized Natural Cave, carved out of the Mountain over thousands of years by Wind, Water and Seismic Shifts





It was started from just 1st Class with 8 Teachers and 186 Students as per Reports







School is like other Normal Schools, with Class-Rooms and a Play-Ground





but most of the Buildings have no Roofs as This Is Not Necessary Here





"Students are very eager for Knowledge and Some comes after covering 6 Hours Walk each day,"

- Headmaster





It looks Stunning in its Ornate Beauty and it must be one Hell of a Stimulating Environment in which to learn
