Ten-Mile Reclining Buddha

　　In recent years, a natural mountain (named Yaoding Mountain) has been discovered near Xizhashui Village in Magedang Township, about 30 kilometers southeast of Lingchuan County, resembling a reclining Buddha that has lain asleep for millennia, facing upward. The resemblance is remarkably lifelike. Viewed from the road beside Xizhashui Village, about ten kilometers away, the reclining Buddha stretches approximately ten Chinese miles from head (north) to feet (south), with well-proportioned head, body, and feet. Its facial features are distinct, the eyelids slightly closed, presenting a serene and benevolent expression as if deep in meditation. Upon closer observation, one can almost hear its faint, steady breathing. This naturally formed wonder is truly breathtaking.
