Lingshan Buddhist Scenic spot near Wuxi

Our second day in Wuxi, we travelled to the Lingshan Buddhist Scenic
spot which had the mighty Buddha.

Most of this is recently made, which is surprising since religion
isn't really encouraged(?) here. Although there must be still a lot of
Buddhist followers as there was plenty of praying and manically
touching the Bhudda's feet.

But the Chinese certainly know how to make things big and spectacular.
The baby buddha foundain was hugely popular. Fountains spraying to the
beat of the loud monkish sounding music.
