·Ten Thousand Buddhas Cave is named after the 15,000 small Buddhas neatly arranged on the north and south sides of the cave. It was built in the Tang Dynasty. The cave has a structure of front and back chambers, with two strong men and two lions in the front chamber, and a Buddha, two disciples, two Bodhisattvas and two heavenly kings in the back chamber. It is the most complete cave with the most complete combination of statues in the Longmen Grottoes.
·There is a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva carved on the south wall outside the cave. It is an exquisite example of the many Bodhisattva statues in Longmen Grottoes in the Tang Dynasty.
·The main Buddha in the cave is Amitabha, sitting on a double-layered lotus seat. He has a plump and round face, broad shoulders, and simple and smooth clothing patterns using the carving technique of the round knife of the Tang Dynasty. The Lord Buddha applies the “Fearless Seal”, which means that there is no fear in heaven and earth, and I am the only one who is supreme.
·The entire cave is magnificent, showing people the ideal land of the Western Paradise, and creating a warm and joyful atmosphere in which millions of people become Buddhas.
