In Sanya, at the southernmost tip of China, a massive, elegant Buddhist temple has been erected. On a nearby man-made island, a statue of Southern Mountain Avalokitesvara, 108 meters tall, will be built, rivaling the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor.

• 中国最南端的城市三亚，依山濒海新建了规模宏大、环境优雅的南山寺，现正在填海修建108米高的“南山观音”，与纽约的自由女神像相媲美。
