About South Sea Guanyin:
✨Approved by the State Council in 1993 and completed in 1999, it is located on a coast of Yacheng in Sanya, known as South Sea Guanyin, and the mountain behind it is called Nanshan.
🌟It is the world's first golden jade Guanyin Bodhisattva statue and the treasure of Hainan Island. The Guanyin statue is 108 meters high, with three bodies, each holding a lotus, a bead, and a sutra box in their hands, stepping on a lotus throne with 108 petals. The Vajra platform under the lotus throne is the Yuan Tong Bao Dian, and the 280-meter-long Puji Bridge is connected to the mainland.
✳️The three Guanyins each hold a bead, a lotus, and a sutra box in their hands, each with different implications:
☞✨The front is the Guanyin holding the sutra box, embodying the prajna virtue of Guanyin, that is, the wisdom virtue. The sutra box represents the six hundred volumes of the Prajna Sutra, observing all sentient beings and freely converting them, and enlightening sentient beings with prajna.
✨The right side is the Guanyin holding the rosary, embodying the liberation virtue of Guanyin, that is, completely getting rid of ignorance and various fetters, reaching the state of great freedom and ease, expressing the compassionate spirit of 'sentient beings recite the Buddha, and the Buddha recites sentient beings' as equals.
✨The left side is the Guanyin holding the lotus, embodying the dharma body virtue of Guanyin. Guanyin is the main deity of the Lotus Department of Esoteric Buddhism. The lotus is the samaya form of Guanyin, symbolizing the 'eternal joy and purity' four virtues; it is the holy flower in Buddhism, symbolizing the sentient beings' meatball heart, the lotus body is pure, out of the mud but not stained, the root and stem are connected, symbolizing 'the heart, Buddha, sentient beings, three without difference'. It generally represents the purity and six roots of Guanyin.
I went early on the first day of the New Year. The tourists in the fragrance were crowded. The vegetarian restaurant set before Guanyin in Nanshan Nanhai was good. Under the smile of Guanyin Bodhisattva, I enjoyed the first meal of the New Year. It was very beautiful!
Nanshan Temple is very worth going. If you have the opportunity, you will go again! The experience is great, the viewing and video are beautiful and spectacular. There are many people but the experience is very good, Xin Zeling, you must be sincere! Amitabha
Personally think it is the most worthwhile attraction in Sanya. As the first stop of the tour, it is really sacred. I have been to visit again a few years ago and I still feel strong. We took the scenic sightseeing bus and only went to the two points of Guanyin on the sea and Nanshan Temple. The elderly and children felt very shocked. They visited the Big Buddha with a sincere heart, and hugged the Buddha's feet on the platform, and Jingxiang of Nanshan Temple. The overall play experience is very good, thank you for this beautiful island. The sea view restaurant at the foot of the Big Buddha is also delicious, and the vegetarian food is delicious.
Very good attractions in Sanya are worth a visit, especially for Buddhists. It is worth queuing up to touch the feet of the Buddha. The scenery above is also very beautiful. The unobstructed sea view is absolutely perfect. We are traveling during the Spring Festival, so people are relatively more crowded.
If you have faith in your heart, you must go to see Guanyin on the sea, free pillar incense, temporarily cram Buddha's feet, you need to climb seven floors, it is not bad to see the scenery above, a bowl of noodles costs 49 yuan, a bottle of Nongfu Spring needs 5 yuan, it is recommended to bring your own dry food.
I visited my wife to worship Buddha, I could collect cards, and also copied the Buddhist scriptures. The glassy sea water was superb, especially wow~
