Introduction to the sixth cave: The plane of the sixth cave is nearly square. In the center is a two-story square tower connected to the top of the cave, about 15 meters high. Below the tower pillar is called a large niche, with a seated Buddha statue carved on the south side, a reclining Buddha statue carved on the west side, a seated statue of Yingduobao opposite Shi Yingduobao on the north side, and a cross-legged Maitreya statue carved on the east side. On both sides of the large niches on the four sides of the tower pillars, on the east, south, two and three walls of the cave, and on both sides of the open windows, 33 reliefs depicting Buddhist stories from Sakyamuni's birth to enlightenment are carved. This cave is magnificent in scale, rich in carvings, and refined in technique. It is the most representative one among the Yungang Grottoes.
