It is famous for its 14,278 stone slabs carved with the Buddhist scriptures known as the Tripitaka, according to latest China Today. The stone-carved scriptures are imbued with great academic and cultural value.
Their academic value lies in the fact that they are the best compilation of various versions of the Tripitaka, and of particular importance is the fact that the collection includes scriptures that have never been found in other versions of the Tripitaka. The cultural value of the scriptures lies in the skilful carving and beautiful calligraphy.
