In A.D. 713, the Buddha has already been started building. The whole giant Buddha is 71 meters high with head 14.7 meters high and 10 meters wide. The Buddha itself owns a high status in China even the world resulting from not only its size but also the architectural artistry, which can be embodied in its coiled hair and miraculous drainage system.
