Dazu Rock Carvings

Download poster

The Dazu Rock Carvings consist of several protected areas and were mainly excavated between the ninth and thirteenth centuries AD. The cliff statues in Baoding Mountain, Beishan and other places use their exquisite art, inscriptions and scenes of daily life to form a unique dialogue between Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. The entire series of heritage cannot be summarized by just one famous statue.

Opening hours

Confirmed opening hours are not available on this page. Check opening and last-entry times with the venue before setting out.

Getting there

Dazu is far from the central city of Chongqing, so you should use confirmed intercity railways or passenger transport plus local connections, regular vehicles or reliable travel products, and decide in advance whether to only visit Baoding Mountain or to reasonably connect multiple stone carving points.

Practical notes

Plan your day around the itinerary, observe photography and no-touching rules, and use the museums to learn about heritage conservation. The coverage of combined tickets and night tour products may be different, please confirm before purchasing.
