The Dazu Rock Carvings in Chongqing are the kind of place that immediately pulls you in with its quiet beauty and history. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, these stone carvings have been standing since the Tang and Song Dynasties, carefully preserved so people today can still see their details up close. 

Out of the five main sites, Baodingshan and Beishan tend to leave the strongest impression. Baodingshan’s carvings, like the “Six Paths of Reincarnation” and the “Retribution for the Ten Deadly Sins,” are full of meaning and artistry that invite you to pause and look closer. Over at Beishan, the Buddha statues show both the bold simplicity of the Tang era and the graceful elegance of the Song period. Together, these masterpieces make the Dazu Rock Carvings a must-see.
