Beyond the city’s bustling streets, two world-class attractions await—大足石刻 (Dazu Rock Carvings) and 天生三桥 (Three Natural Bridges). One showcases the pinnacle of ancient Chinese stone art, while the other reveals the awe-inspiring power of nature. 大足石刻 (Dazu Rock Carvings), located in Dazu District, is one of China’s four major grotto art sites and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. These carvings, blending Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist philosophies, date back over a thousand years and exhibit remarkable artistic mastery. The most famous sites, Baodingshan and Beishan, transport visitors back in time, offering a glimpse into the spiritual devotion and craftsmanship of ancient Chinese artisans. 天生三桥 (Three Natural Bridges), situated in the Wulong Karst Scenic Area, is another UNESCO World Heritage Site. This stunning geological formation consists of three massive stone arch bridges—Tianlong, Qinglong, and Heilong—forming a magnificent natural wonder. As you walk along the cliffside trails, you’ll be immersed in a world of towering rock formations and deep canyons, famously featured in films like Curse of the Golden Flower. This destination is a paradise for adventurers and nature lovers alike. Whether you’re seeking a deep dive into history or a breathtaking natural escape,重庆and its surrounding wonders promise an unforgettable journey. Pack your bags and embark on this incredible adventure!

Dazu Rock Carvings

Just touched down in Chongqing and went straight for the insane ancient art vibes at Dazu Rock Carvings — this UNESCO gem totally lives up to the hype! 😍🪨 Must-See Place: Dazu Rock Carvings Address: Baoding Mountain Stone Carving Scenic Area, Baoding Town, Dazu District, Chongqing Opening hours: 9:00–18:00 (Last ticket and entry by 17:00) Entry fee: 110 yuan Tip: If you’re coming from downtown Chongqing, do what I did — grab a taxi for about 400 yuan roundtrip. It’s seriously worth it for the convenience (especially if you’re not feeling the local bus adventure). Best time to visit? Right now! The weather’s chill so you skip the blazing summer heat and can actually enjoy the outdoor walk without melting. Dazu Rock Carvings are packed with thousands of Buddhist, Taoist, and Confucian sculptures carved over centuries. The scale and detail are wild — brush up on some history before you go, or just take a guided tour for all the legends behind each statue. Getting around: Taxis are fast, comfy, and easy in Chongqing. Always have your destination written in Chinese for drivers. Food: Snack game strong — bring some water and munchies because the onsite options are limited. There are small restaurants near the scenic area if you want local eats after. Insider tips: – Buy tickets early to avoid lines – Arrive by late morning for fewer crowds – Cash and mobile pay both accepted – Bring sunblock and hats even if it’s cooler #Chongqing #DazuRockCarvings #TravelChina #TripTips
