Dazu Rock Carvings, a World Heritage Site in Chongqing, China

The Dazu Rock Carvings, designated a World Heritage Site in 1999, are divided into several locations, but I visited the main one, Baodingshan. 🛕 You can get up close and personal with stone carvings, primarily from the Song Dynasty (960-1279), including the stunning Thousand-Armed Kannon and the Six Realms of Reincarnation and Hell, which are spread across the wall of a 31-meter-long Nirvana statue—one of the largest in China! A must-see for lovers of Buddhist art, as well as those interested in history and culture. 👀 ⏰ Opening Hours: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM (last entrance 4:30 PM) 🎫 Ticket Price: Approximately 80 NTD (approx. 1,400 JPY) 📍 Access: Baodingshan, Dazu District, Chongqing (approx. 1.5 hours by car from downtown Chongqing) #AsiaTravel #ChinaTrip #Chongqing #WorldHeritage #WorldHeritageVisit #DazuRockCarvings #ChinaTravelGuide8 #ChinaTravelGuide8 #SummerCampaign

The car rental experience was great. The car was very clean and had no odor. It was October when we came to Chongqing, but it was very hot. The air conditioner was on throughout the trip.

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
