高大 (gāo dà) — tall and big; imposing in stature

Definition

高大 (gāodà) means physically tall and big — describes the build or stature of a person, tree, or building. The base adjective 高 alone means 'tall/high', so 高大 adds the sense of size and presence. 高尚/崇高 are moral (noble/lofty) — not physical.
