SANYA, Hainan - china hawaii 

A MUST VISIT temple for the big statue guanyin - You can also pay your respects to the Nanshan Guanyin, a 135-meter-tall bodhisattva, make obeisance and pray for good fortune.

The statue has three aspects: one side faces inland and the other two face the South China Sea, to represent blessing and protection by Guanyin of China and the whole world. One aspect depicts Guanyin cradling a sutra in the left hand and gesturing the Vitaraka Mudra with the right; the second with her palms crossed, holding a string of prayer beads; and the third holding a lotus.

The statue took six years to build and was enshrined on April 24, 2005, with the participation of 108 monks from various Buddhist groups in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao and Mainland China, and tens of thousands of pilgrims.
