Buddha Eden
Buddha Eden - o maior jardim oriental da Europa, o impressionante Buddha Eden.
Com cerca de 35 hectares, o jardim surge em resposta à destruição dos Budas Gigantes de Bamyan, naquele que foi um dos maiores actos de barbárie cultural, apagando da memória obras-primas do período tardio da Arte de Gandhara.
Entre budhas, pagodes, estátuas de terracota e várias esculturas cuidadosamente colocadas entre a vegetação, estima-se que foram usadas mais de 6 mil toneladas de mármore e granito para edificar esta obra monumental.
A escadaria central é o ponto focal do jardim, onde os buddhas dourados dão calmamente as boas-vindas.
No lago central é possível observar os peixes KOI, e os dragões esculpidos que se erguem da água.
Terá ainda a oportunidade de observar os 700 soldados de terracota pintados à mão, cada um deles único, encontrando-se alguns enterrados como há 2.200 anos atrás.
Venha conhecer um lugar único de paz e tranquilidade que o vai surpreender.
Quinta dos Loridos, Bombarral, Portugal

Buddha Eden - the largest oriental garden in Europe, can be found. The oriental garden with around 35 hectares of land was created as a reaction to the destruction of the Buddhas of Banyan, in which one of the greatest acts of cultural barbarity took place, erasing masterpieces of late-period Gandhara art. From Buddhas, pagodas, terracotta statues and the various carefully-placed sculptures which can be found throughout the gardens, it is estimated that some six thousand tons of marble and granite were used to create this monumental work of art. The central staircase is the focal point of the garden, where the golden Buddhas offer you a calm welcome. At the central lake, KOI (Japanese carp) fish can be seen, and sculpted dragons rise out of the water. There is also the opportunity to see the seven hundred hand-painted terracotta soldiers, each of them unique copies of those which were buried some 2,200 years ago. You will be truly enchanted with the peace and tranquillity of this unique and special place. Quinta dos Loridos, Bombarral, Portugal [source: bacalhoa/enoturismo]
