Spring Temple Buddha
A colossal Vairocana Buddha in central China/Statues & Monuments
The Spring Temple Buddha in Henan Province, China, was the world's tallest statue from 2008 until the Statue of Unity surpassed it in 2018. The statue depicts Vairocana Buddha and sits atop a 25-meter lotus throne, which sits on a 20-meter pedestal building. It was built partly in response to the Taliban's destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas in Afghanistan.
