The main images are the Trikala Buddhas. The seated Sakyamuni in the main cave is 18.8 meters high, the second largest in the Yungang caves. Wearing a well-decorated kasaya, he has a squarely-round face, broad shoulders and long ear lobes down to his shoulders. On the east and west sides of the main caves are two adjacent chambers, each housing a seated Buddha. Such kind of the Trikala Buddhas is quite unique.
