Lonmen- Templo Antepasados- Ancestors Temple
El templo de Adoración de los Antepasados es la parte más grande y más impresionante de las cuevas .
Su figura central es el Buda Vairocana o Buda de la Luz Ilimitada que mide 17 metros , sus orejas son de dos metros y se la ha llamado por su sonrisa la Mona Lisa de Oriente
Las estatua de Amanda y Kasyapa están a los lados de del Buda Vairocana , una está muy deteriorada y la otra en buen estado ( Amanda fue discípulo de Sakyamuni y fue el que compiló los sutras budistas ) , también hay a cada lado dos bodishattvas
En la pared del fondo hay dos guardianes celestes , uno de ellos es el rey celestial que sostiene una estatua votiva mientras aplasta un demonio con el pie

The Ancestors Worshipping Temple is the largest and the most impressive of the caves.
Its central figure is the Vairocana Buddha or Buddha of the Unlimited Light , it measures 17 metres, his ears are two meters long and it has been called , by his smile , the Mona Lisa of the East
The statues of Amanda and Kasyapa are on both sides of the Vairocana Buddha, one was heavily damaged and the other is in good condition (Amanda was a disciple of Sakyamuni and he was the one who compiled the Buddhist sutras), there are also two Bodishattvas on each side
On the back wall there are two celestial guardians, one of them is the heavenly King who maintains a statue on his hand while he crushes a demon with his foot
