Fromyour smiling faces, I know that you may have sweet dreams last night, right? Ok,I have some news even exciti ng, that is, today we’re going to visit the LongmenGrottoes, which you have been expecting for a long time.So now let me give you a general introduction first. Around 13 km south ofLuoyang, there are two picturesque hills confronting each other with the YiRiver flowing northward between them, connected by an arched stone bridgeresembling a natural gate tower. This is the right place named Longmen, wherethe well-known Longmen Grottoes is located.The grottoes, which earn the fame of one of the Three Treasure Houses ofStone Sculpture in China, were created over 1500 years age. The Longmen Grottoeswas first known in theyear 493 AD, when Emperor Xiaowen moved his capital toLuoyang from Datong, Shannxi Province, which marked the initiation ofdevelopment and expanse of Buddhism in Central China. It prolongs for 1000meters from north to south. According to the statistics conducted in recentyears, there are 2300 caves and niches with over 100000 Buddhist figures. Inaddition, more than 2800 tablet inscriptions and some 40 Buddhist pagodas werepreserved in or out of the caves.Now, we’ve got to the grottoes. Please get off the bus. Here is the QianxiTemple. It was built in the early Tang Dynasty around 640 AD. It has altogether7 Buddhist statues inside, of which, Buddha Amitabha is sitting in the centralwith 2 of his favorite disciples, 2 Bodhisattvas, and 2 Heavenly Kings.Please come with me. Now we are in front of the Bin yang Caves. The Binyang Caves consist 3 large caves, the North, the Middle and the South caves. TheMid and the South Bin yang Caves were built under Emperor Xuanwu for practicingthe merits and virtues for his diseased parents, late Emperor Xiaowen and lateEmpress Dowager(遗孀) Wenzhao in 500 AD. While the North Bin yang cave was addedfor the late Emperor Xuanwu by a eunuch(太监) in the palace named Liu Tang in508AD.In the West Hill of Longmen, there are several “the most” caves to feastyour eyes. Just now, we visited the Ten-thousand Buddha Cave with 15000 Buddhistimages, which has the most Buddha images, and the Lotus Cave with 2cm-highBuddha images, which are the tiniest Buddha images.And now, we’ve come to another “most”, the Fengxian Temple. So whathighlights can we see here? I’ll show you. One day in 655AD, Empress Dowager WuZetian cried in the palace. Emperor Gaozong asked her why she was so unhappy.She said:“Do you think I am beautiful?” the Emperor answered: “Of course, youare the most beautiful lady under heaven!” the Empress said: “but sooner oflater I would be ugly. Beauty cannot last long.” The Emperor Gaozong at oncemade the best artist in the palace paint a beautiful portrait of Empress Wu. Butshe still cried, she said: “the portrait is beautiful, but after hundreds ofyears, it will rot and disappear.” The Emperor Gaozong suddenly saw the light.He issued an edict(法令) that a stone statue must be carved at once. Hearing thisedict, Empress Wu was so pleased that she donated 20000 strings(串) of cash coinsfor her cosmetics(化妆品) and also attended the consecration(献祭仪式) of the chiefBuddha when the construction was thoroughly completed in order to shorten thetime of the project. So the main Buddha Losana was carved according to EmpressWu’s appearance.That is the legend. Now we see, the Buddha Losana is 17.14m high with itshead 4m, each ear 1.9m, and flanked by 2 symmetrical disciples, Bodhisattvas,Heavenly Kings, and Great Men of Strength on both sides. The chief Buddha givesyou an impression of dignified manner, magnificent looking, wise, farsighted andkind nature. Looking around the overall arrangement, we would rather say thatthe Fengxian T emple is a scene of a grand imperial court than a spot ofBuddhism. Generally speaking, the Fengxian Temple is the most magnificent andartistic among all the shrines of the Tang Dynasty and as well as an example ofsuccess in integrating politics with Buddhism in ancient China.Ok everyone, now you can take photos here. Or you can ask questions thatyou don’t understand. After 15 minutes we will gather right here. See youthen.英文龙门石窟导游词篇5Welcome to Longmen Grottoes.They are located in the south of LuoyangCity.They are between Mount Xiang and Mount Longmen and face Yi River.LongmenGrottoes，Yungang Caves and Mogao Caves are regarded as the three most famoustreasure houses of stone inscriptions in China.The grottoes were started aroundthe year 494 when Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534 A.D.)moved the capital to Luoyang.Work on them continued for another 400 years untilthe Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127 A.D.).The first caves of Longmen wereexcavated in 494，the 12th year of the Northern Wei Dynasty Xiaowen Emperor'sreign.The grottoes extend for some 1,000 meters (about 1,094 yards) from northto south.They contain over 2,300 holes and niches，2,800 steles，40 stupas，1,300caves and 97,000 sculptured figures that have survived the test of time.Most ofthese works date from the Northern Wei Dynasty and the flourishing age of theTang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.).Lots of historical materials concerning art, music,religion, calligraphy, medicine, costume and architecture are stored in theLongmen Grottoes.Fengxian TempleFengxian Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty and it is the largest grottoin Longmen Grottoes with a width of 36 meters (about 118 feet) and a length of41 meters (about 136 feet).There are nine major figures of various facialappearances and temperaments in the temple that were built in accordance withBuddhist rites by the artists.The most impressive figure is the statue ofVairocana Buddha sitting cross-legged on the eight-square lotus throne.It is17.14 metres (about 56 feet) high;the head alone is four meters (about 1 3 feet)high，and the ears arenearly 2 meters (about 6 feet) long.Vairocana meansilluminating all things in the sutra.The Buddha has a well-filled figure，asacred and kindly expression and an elegant smile.According to the record on theepigraph，the Empress Wu Zetian together with her subjects took part in theceremony of Introducing the Light (a Buddhist blessing that the Buddha opens thespiritual light of himself and shares it with others).At the sides of Vairocanathere are two statues of Vairocana Buddha’s disciples，Kasyapa and Ananda，wearingprudent and devout expressions.

篇一：洛阳龙门石窟英文导游词Good morning ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please? From your smiling faces, I know that you may have sweet dreams last night, right? Ok, I have some news even exciting, that is, today we’re going to visit the Longmen Grottoes, which you have been expecting for a long time.So now let me give you a general introduction first. Around 13 km south of Luoyang, there are two picturesque hills confronting each other with the Yi River flowing northward between them, connected by an arched stone bridge resembling a natural gate tower. This is the right place named Longmen, where the well-known Longmen Grottoes is located.The grottoes, which earn the fame of one of the Three Treasure Houses of Stone Sculpture in China, were created over 1500 years age. The Longmen Grottoes was first known in the year 493 AD, when Emperor Xiaowen moved his capital to Luoyang from Datong, Shannxi Province, which marked the initiation of development and expanse of Buddhism in Central China. It prolongs for 1000 meters from north to south. According to the statistics conducted in recent years, there are 2300 caves and niches with over 100000 Buddhist figures. In addition, more than 2800 tablet inscriptions and some 40 Buddhist pagodas were preserved in or out of the caves.Now, we’ve got to the grottoes. Please get off the bus. Here is the Qianxi Temple. It was built in the early Tang Dynasty around 640 AD. It has altogether 7 Buddhist statues inside, of which, Buddha Amitabha is sitting in the central with 2 of his favorite disciples, 2 Bodhisattvas, and 2 Heavenly Kings.Please come with me. Now we are in front of the Bin yang Caves. The Bin yang Caves consist 3 large caves, the North, the Middle and the South caves. The Mid and the South Bin yang Caves were built under Emperor Xuanwu for practicing the merits and virtues for his diseased parents, late Emperor Xiaowen and late Empress Dowager(遗孀) Wenzhao in 500 AD. While the North Bin yang cave was added for the late Emperor Xuanwu by a eunuch（太监） in the palace named Liu Tang in 508AD.In the Wes t Hill of Longmen, there are several “the most” caves to feast your eyes. Just now, we visited the Ten-thousand Buddha Cave with 15000 Buddhist images, which has the most Buddha images, and the Lotus Cave with 2cm-high Buddha images, which are the tiniest Buddha images.And now, we’ve come to another “most”, the Fengxian Temple. So what highlights can we see here? I’ll show you. One day in 655AD, Empress Dowager Wu Zetian cried in the palace. Emperor Gaozong asked her why she was so unhappy. She said: “Do you think I am beautiful?” the Emperor answered: “Of course, you are the most beautiful lady under heaven!” the Empress said: “but sooner of later I would be ugly. Beauty cannot last long.” The Emperor Gaozong at once made the best artist in the palace paint a beautiful portrait of Empress Wu. But she still cried, she said: “the portrait is beautiful, but after hundreds of years, it will rot and disappear.” The Emperor Gaozong suddenly saw the light. He issued an edict（法令） thata stone statue must be carved at once. Hearing this edict, Empress Wu was so pleased that she donated 20000 strings（串）of cash coins for her cosmetics（化妆品） and also attended the consecration（献祭仪式）of the chief Buddha when the construction was thoroughly completed in order to shorten the time of the project. So the main Buddha Losana was carved according to Empress Wu’s appearance.That is the legend. Now we see, the Buddha Losana is 17.14m high with its head 4m, each ear 1.9m, and flanked by 2 symmetrical disciples, Bodhisattvas, Heavenly Kings, and Great Men of Strength on both sides. The chief Buddha gives you an impression of dignified manner, magnificent looking, wise, farsighted and kind nature. Looking around the overall arrangement, we would rather say that the Fengxian Temple is a scene of a grand imperial court than a spot of Buddhism. Generally speaking, the Fengxian Temple is the most magnificent and artistic among all the shrines of the Tang Dynasty and as well as an example of success in integrating politics with Buddhism in ancient China.Ok everyone, now you can take photos here. Or you can ask questions that you don’t understand. After 15 minutes we will gather right here. See you then.篇二：洛阳龙门石窟英文导游词Welcome to Longmen Grottoes．They are located in the south of Luoyang City．They are between Mount Xiang and Mount Longmen and face Yi River．Longmen Grottoes，Yungang Caves and Mogao Caves are regarded as the three most famous treasure houses of stone inscriptions in China．The grottoes were started around the year 494 when Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534 A.D.) moved thecapital to Luoyang．Work on them continued for another 400 years until the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127 A.D.)．The first caves of Longmen were excavated in 494，the 12th year of the Northern Wei Dynasty Xiaowen Emperor's reign．The grottoes extend for some 1,000 meters (about 1,094 yards) from north to south．They contain over 2,300 holes and niches，2,800 steles，40 stupas，1,300 caves and 97,000 sculptured figures that have survived the test of time．Most of these works date from the Northern Wei Dynasty and the flourishing age of the Tang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.)．Lots of historical materials concerning art, music, religion, calligraphy, medicine, costume and architecture are stored in the Longmen Grottoes．Fengxian TempleFengxian Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty and it is the largest grotto in Longmen Grottoes with a width of 36 meters (about 118 feet) and a length of 41 meters (about 136 feet)．There are nine major figures of various facial appearances and temperaments in the temple that were built in accordance with Buddhist rites by the artists．The most impressive figure is the statue of Vairocana Buddha sitting cross-legged on the eight-square lotus throne．It is 17.14 metres (about 56 feet) high；the head alone is four meters (about 1 3 feet) high，and the ears are nearly 2 meters (about 6 feet) long．Vairocana means illuminating all things in the sutra．The Buddha has a well-filled figure，a sacred and kindly expression and an elegant smile．According to the record on the epigraph，the Empress Wu Zetian together with her subjects took part in the ceremony of Introducing the Light (a Buddhist blessing that the Buddha opens the spiritual light of himself and shares it with others)．At the sides of Vairocana there are two statues of VairocanaBuddha’s disciples，Kasyapa and Ananda，wearing prudent and devout expressions.

Longmen Grottoes龙门石窟外语导游词
Longmen GrottoesLongmen Grottoes is located on both banks of the Yi River, 13 kilometers south of Luoyang City . Here the two hills stand facing each other and the Yihe River washes its way northward through the gorge. It seems to be a natural gate, historically called “Yique”, later in Sui Dynasty renamed “Longmen”. The carving work at Longmen began in Northern Wei Dynasty when emperor Xiaowen moved his capital to Luoyang (A.D.493). It lasted more than 400 years. At present there are over 2,300 caves and niches, more than one hundred thousand Buddhist images and over 300,000 characters of inscriptions.The grottoes and niches in the two hills are known at home and abroad for their large numbers, massive scales, variety of subjects, delicate carving and profound meaning. With their original imperial style and the style of central China , the grottoes created during the Northern Wei period and the Tang Dynasty reached the pinnacle of the development of stone carving at that time and differed from grottoes created earlier. The site has been known as the “forest of ancient steles”for the biggest number of steles and inscriptions ever seen in any of the grottoes in the world.It is rare in the art of stone carving so far as the extensive coverage of the various sects of Buddhism, and even Taoism, as the subject matter of the grottoes is concerned. The large numbers of materials in kind and literary data have reflected, from different angles, the developments and changes of Chinese politics, economics, religion, culture, and other aspects in ancient times, and have made important contributions to the creation and development of the Chinese art of stone carving.Tourist Route:Cave On The West Hill:North Gate--->The Three Binyang Caves--->The Three Moya Buddha--->Ten- thousand Buddha Cave--->The Lotus-flower Cave--->Fengxiansi Cave--->Guyang Cave--->Yaofang Cave--->South GateDongshan Grottoes:South Gate--->The Three Leigutai Caves--->The Gully Of Thousands Of Buddha- -->kanjingsi Cave--->Cave With Four Cranes--->North GateXiangshan Temple:Southern Tourist Path--->The Lotus-flower Pool--->Clock Storey/drum Storey--->Tianwang Palace---Luohan Palace --->Stone Storey--->Nine Dotage Premises--->observe view terrace--->Grandeur Precious Palace--->Qianlong royal tablet pavilion--->Jiangsong villa --->Bump Tambourine --->Through the Dongshan Hotel To Bai GardenBai garden:South Gate--->South Poetry corrider--->Pipa peak--->Nouth Poetry corrider--->Canvass Poemty Room--->Letian Premises--->Qing Valley--->Obverse gate Longmen Grottoes Longmen Grottoes was promulgated颁布、公布a key national cultural relic unit for special protection by the State Council in 1961.

According to the stele under the seat of grand Losana, the cave was cut by Emperor Li Zhi of the Tang Dynasty, and Empress Wu Zetian donated 20,000 strings of cash to the decoration of statues in this cave. So Fengxina Temple was initiated by the emperor himself, designed by prestigious monks and supervised by high-rank officials in the court. This group of statues embodied the great material and spiritual strength of the Tang Dynasty, demonstrated the supreme level attained in the art of stone carving in the Tang Dynasty, and is a symbol of the Tang Dynasty as a great era and an vivid example of the oriental Buddhist art.THREE BINY ANG CA VEAltogether 11 statues were caved in the Middle Binyang Cave , the main statue of Sakyamuni, two disciples, two Buddhas, two Bodhisattvas, and so on.The front wall from the top to the basement is covered successively with large reliefs ofVimalakirti, Prince sattva jataka, Prince Suddtta jataka, emperor and empress worshipping scene, as well and ten deity kings.A lotus-flower pool decorates the floor.

On the ceiling of the cave is the chronicle record of the date when it was completed. It was a contribution from eunuch Yaoshenbiao and Nun Zhiyun for the emperor, empress, and princes. On the main wall are five statues, the main Buddha, Amitabha, two disciples, and two bodhisattvas. Behind the halo of the chief Buddha are cut fifty four lotus-flower born offering bodhisattvas. They distinguish themselves and are graceful.On the south and north walls are scattered ten thousand sitting buddhas, cross-legged, with musical apsarases on the lower parts of the walls.

The back wall is occupied with a Buddha and two disciples. The two disciples was engraved relief, with Kasyapa on the left, holding a stick, and Ananda on the right, all of the three standing.

The small niches are of different shapes, all finely sculptured.To the north of the gate of this cave is engraved a Buddhist sutra, which is one of the early stone carving sutras in China .KANJINGSI CA VEKanjingsi Cave (constructed from A.D. 684 to 741, during the reign of Empress Wu Zhou), located in the north of Wanfuogou, is a big cave with square and flat ceiling. A large lotus flower enclosed by six apsaras decorates the ceiling.

龙门石窟英文导游词
Longmen Grottoes Scenic Area in Luoyang (洛阳龙门石窟)Good morning! Ladies and gentlemen.Today we are going to visit Longmen Grottoes, the national 5A scenic area as well as world cultural heritage. “Longmen” means dragon-gate. So the literal meaning of Longmen Grottoes is Dragon Gate Grottoes. Longmen, 13 kilometers away from the Luoyang City, is the natural southern defense of Luoyang. It consists of Longmen Grottoes at the West Hill and Xiangshan Hill at the East Hill. The maximum statue is the statue of Vairocana Buddha, which is 17.14 meters high, with her head 4 meters high, her ears 1.9 meters long for each. And the minimum statues are only 2 centimeters.Looking from distance, we find it is like a que. The name Yique was acquired during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. YangGuang, the second emperor of the Sui Dynasty, took Luoyang as the capital. The gate of the imperial palace faces Yi que and emperors thought themselves as dragons, so Longmen gets its present name, meaning dragon gate.The famous Longmen Grottoes extends more than 1000 meters from north to south along the Yi River banks. Its over 100000 statues were completed in pieces during 400 years from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty until the Northern Song Dynasty. In 1961, the State Council confirmed it as the first group main relics. In Nov.2000, the 24th World Heritage Committee of UNESCO put the Longmen Grottoes in the list of world heritages.Well, ladies and gentleman, this is QianXi Temple. It was built in the early years of the Emperor Gaozong. The main Buddha inside the cave is Amitabha Buddha, with plump face, broad shoulders, very simple but smooth. To the left side of the main Buddha is Kasyapa, the elder disciple, and to the right side of the main Buddha is Ananda, the younger disciple.Dear friends, please come with me. Now we are in front of BinYang Caves, which are the northern, southern, and middle BinYang Cave. Middle Binyang Cave is a representative one of the Northern Wei Dynasty. “Binyang” means to greet the rising sun. Middle Binyang Cave was built by Emperor Xuanwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty. It was started in 500 A.D., and was completed in523 A.D. And it lasted for 24 years. It took 800000 labor-day to finish it. Middle Binyang Cave is U shaped plane with domed roof. Inside the cave are the three Buddhas, namely past, present and future Buddha. The main Buddha is Sakyamuni. He was the founder of Buddhism. He lived at the same period of Confucius and he became a monk at the age of 29. It took him 6 years to become the Buddha, and he founded Buddhism. In the Northern Wei Dynasty, people loved to be slender, this also can be seen on the statues in the cave. The rulers of the Northern Wei Dynasty were minority people, everyday they were on horse backs either for fighting or hunting. So they had so much exercises, this made them so slender. So all the statues of the Northern Wei Dynasty were slender. This is the special feature of the statues or stone carvings of the Northern Wei Dynasty. We can see that the main Buddha inside Middle Binyang Cave is Sakyamuni with slender cheeks, tall and slender body with dense clothes lines. The carving method is the strait way of cutting of the Northern Wei Dynasty.And now, we come to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Cave. The reason why it is called so is because there are altogether 15000 small Buddha statues inside this cave. The cave is in the structure of front room and back room. To both sides of the front room gate, there are two guardians, two lions；in the back room, there are one Buddha and two disciples, two Bodhisattvas, two heavenly kings. The main Buddha inside the cave is Amitabha Buddha, who is sitting ontwo-layer lotus throne, with plump face and broad shoulders, simple yet concise and fluent cloth pattern. The carving method is a round way of cutting of the Tang Dynasty. The main Buddha is having abhaya mudra, meaning I am almighty, I fear of nothing between heaven and earth. On the waist of the lotus throne where the main Buddha is sitting, there are four Vajra Powerful Lords, vigorous and energetic.OK, ladies and gentlemen. Follow me please. We are going to visit Fengxian Temple now. It is the largest scale cliffside statue niche of Longmen Grottoes and the most representative work of engraving art of the Tang Dynasty. According to the record, Fengxian Temple was built under the imperial edict of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty. Empress Wu Zetian donated 20000strings of cash coin of her makeup, and the construction was completed in 675 A.D.. The entire statue niche includes one Huddha, two disciples, two Bodhisattvas, two heavenly kings and two warriors.The main Huddha is a sitting Vnirocana Buddha, with a total height of 17.14 meters, with her head 4 meters high, and her ears 1.9 meters for each. Her face is pleasingly plump and round as a full moon, with square jaw and broad cheeks, with her eyebrow as crescent and very bright eyes. She is smiling a little bit, with two long ears, simple cloth pattern, and her nimble eyes with connotation seem to be more elegant and graceful. The whole statue gives people an impression of solemnness, elegance and tranquility. To the left of the Buddha, it is Kasyapa, even though his body and head are incomplete, he still shows a weather-beaten senior monk; to the right of the Buddha, it is Ananda with thick eyebrows and fine eyes, young and sagacious, piety and generous andself-confident, who is an intelligent young person.Now let’s pay a visit to the East Hill of the scenic area. Mr. Bai Juyi’s Park is located on the East Hill of Longmen Grottoes some 13 kilometers to the south of Luoyang. The hill is called Xiangshan Hill, and inside the hill, there is a valley named Qinggu Valley. Mr. Bai Juyi’s Park was the place where he lived for his latter half of his life and where he was buried when he passed away. The park is divided into a few sections as Qinggu Area, Tomb Area, Poetry Gallery Area and some other buildings which have something to do with the great poet. Xiangshan Temple is located on the East Hill of Longmen, facing Longmen Grottoes on the West Hill. It was first built in the first year of Xiping of the Northern Wei Dynasty, which has a history of over 1500 years. And it was renovated five times, and the last renovation was done on the first half of 2003. The new Xiangshan Temple borrows the style of the Tang Dynasty, and a few buildings were renovated and some new buildings as Bell Tower, Drum Tower and Mahavira Hall were added.OK, ladies and gentlemen. So much for the introduction to Longmen Grottoes. Thank you for your attention.。

龙门石窟英文导游词(DOC) 龙门石窟英文导游词
洛阳，素称“九朝古都”，但实际上先后有十三个朝代在此建都。
洛阳作为都城，前后历时1500年，是中国七大古都中建都时间最早、朝代最多、历史最长的古都。
距市区13公里的龙门是洛阳南面的天然门户，这里两岸香山、龙门山对立，伊水中流，远望就象天然的门阙一样。
因此自春秋战国以来，这里就获得了一个形象化的称谓“伊阙”。
隋炀帝都洛阳，因宫城城门产正对伊阙，古代帝王又以真龙天子自居，因此得名“龙门”，“龙门”之名即延用至今。
举世闻名的龙门石窟就雕刻在伊河两岸的山崖上，南北长约1公里。
从北魏孝文帝迁都洛阳时开始营造，经过东魏、西魏、北齐、隋、唐、延至北宋，累计大规模开凿约四百余年，现存窟龛2345个，碑刻题记2800余块，佛塔70余座，造像近11万尊。
其窟龛、造像和题记数量之多，居中国石窟之冠，与敦煌莫高窟、大同云冈石窟并称为中国三大佛教艺术宝库。
中华人民共和国国务院于1961年确定龙门石窟为全国第一批重点文物保护单位。
2000年11月，联合国教科文组织第24届世界遗产委员通过列入《世界遗产名录》。
龙门石窟是中国古代封建政权凌驾于佛教之上的宗教艺术，由于魏、唐两代皇室的参与而形成了龙门石窟皇家风范的重要特色，许多窟龛或造象的兴废变迁都与当时的政治形势变化有着密切关系。
“龙门山色”自古即为洛阳八景之首。
北魏以来，这里松柏苍翠，寺院林立，到唐代有十寺最为有名。
山脚处泉水汩汩，伊水碧波荡漾，唐代时行船往来，穿梭其中。
精美的雕像与青山绿水交相辉映，形成了旖旎葱茏，。
钟灵毓秀的龙门山色。
伊阙风光。
中国古代历史上曾有许多文人墨客，帝王将相，高僧大德徜徉于此，赋诗吟诵。
唐代大诗人白居易“洛都四郊山水之胜，龙门首焉;龙门十寺观游之胜，香山首焉”的佳句，声名远扬，今诵尤新。
潜溪寺朋友们，下面我们将参观龙门石窟西山北端第一个大窟潜溪寺。
潜溪寺为唐高宗初年雕造。
洞内造像为一佛、二弟-子、二菩萨、二天王。
主像阿弥陀佛居中而坐，身体各部比例匀称，面容丰满，胸部隆起，表情静穆慈祥。
两侧观世音、大势至菩萨体躯比例适中，丰满敦厚，表情温雅文静，富于人情味，揭示了唐初雕刻艺术的长足发展。
阿弥陀佛和观世音、大势至菩萨合称为“西方三圣”，是佛教净土宗供奉的偶像。
隋唐时代是中国佛教发展的又一个繁盛期。
佛教学风在“破斥南北、禅义均弘”形势下，南北佛教徒们不断的交流和互相影响，完成了对以前各种佛教学说的概括和总结，从而使佛教中国化的趋向更加明显，也使佛教造像艺术充满了清新与活力。
因此，在造像艺术上发生了不同于北魏时代造像风格的变化，潜溪寺中的造像已揭开了盛唐那种丰腴、典雅的造像风格的序曲。
宾阳中洞北魏孝文帝迁都洛阳后，实行了意义重大、比较彻底的汉化改革，历史上称为“孝文改制”。
由最高统治者实行的政治上的改革必然对当时皇家贵族发愿开凿的佛教石窟造像有一定影响。
下面我们将参观的宾阳中洞的造像风格和服饰就是孝文帝改制在文化上的反映。
朋友们，现在我们面前的这三座洞窟合称为宾阳三洞。
宾阳三洞因统一规划、有计划开凿且并排布局而得名。
这三座洞窟从公元500年开凿直到523年停工，历时长达24年还未完工，史书记载用工多达80多万。
中间的为宾阳中洞，是北魏宣武帝为其父母孝文帝及文昭皇太后祈福做功德而开凿。
洞中三壁造三世佛，从南向兹依次为过去世燃灯佛、现在世佛释迦牟尼和未来世佛弥勒佛。
宾阳中洞的窟顶是穹隆形，好像蒙古包的顶部，地面雕刻着大型莲花，周边是莲花花瓣、水波纹和其它装饰图案，如同鲜艳美丽的地毯式样子。
这种形式使人很自然联想起北方游牧民族的生活。
主佛释迦牟屁，造像手法已和北魏鲜卑族拓拔部固有的粗犷敦厚之风有所不同，而是吸收了中原地区汉民族文化的成分和当时南朝所流行的“清瘦俊逸”的风尚，形成了迁都洛阳后佛教造像“秀骨清像”的艺术形式。
主佛体态修长，面容清瘦，眉目疏朗，嘴角上翘，表情温和，神采飘逸。
服饰已脱去了云冈石窟中双领下垂式袈裟和偏袒右肩式袈裟，改为中原地区褒衣博带的形式，衣裙下部雕作羊肠纹拖在基座前部，一层一层折叠着。
这种雕造风格迅速在全国流行开，成为北魏时期佛教艺术中国化、民族化的造像特色。
这种造像手法与现实生活中的人物形象接近了许多，正是孝文帝改制在龙门石窟造像上的反映。
中洞窟门内前壁两侧下层各有一幅大型浮雕，北为孝文帝及侍从礼佛图，南为文昭皇太后及嫔妃礼佛图。
这两幅作品，精美绝伦，20世纪30年代被盗凿而去，现分别藏美国纽约大都会博物馆和堪萨斯州纳尔逊艺术博物馆。
1978年，当人们拆除宾阳中洞的清代所建砖券门时，雕凿于北魏时期造型鲜为人知的天王造像显现在人们面前。
朋友们请看，当时在窟门过道两壁上发现的就是三头四臂的帝释天王和四头四臂大梵天王浮雕。
