There is a relation with contest #240

Until 2001 this was an UNESO World Heritage site: The Buddhas of Bamiyan in Central Afghanistan.

About 500 AD these Buddhas were carved out of the cliffs in the Bamiyan valley, but they were destroyed by the Taliban in 2001.

No earthquake here, but this site didn’t survive anyhow

Some 3000 years ago, during the Tang Dynasty, the Leshan Giant Buddha was carved out of a cliff at the confluence of the Minjiang, Dadu and Qingyi rivers in the southern part of Sichuan province in China.

Since 1996 this area is on the World Heritage list of UNESCO and it survived the 2008 Sichuan earthquake without damage.
