Elder Xingyun's inscription "Maitreya is on earth" for Maitreya in Xuedou Mountain is also particularly eye-catching. Maitreya in the open air sits in a bronze posture, with a cloth bag in his left hand and a rosary in his right hand. He is kind-hearted, smiling and shirtless. This is a statue of Maitreya Buddha in China, which is based on a cloth bag monk in Fenghua.
The open-air Maitreya is located on the hillside 369 meters above sea level behind Xuedou Temple, with a planned scenic area of 52 hectares. Maitreya in the open air, also known as "Maitreya on earth", was inscribed by Master Chang Xingyun, the founder of Foguang Mountain in Taiwan Province Province. The total height is 56.74 meters, symbolizing Maitreya's afterlife and afterlife. Made of more than 500 tons of tin bronze, it is the largest Maitreya bronze Buddha sitting in the open air in the world.
