What to expect

Dazu Rock Carvings

This UNESCO World Heritage Site around Dazu is home to several groups of religious rock carvings. Your visit focuses on key sections that illustrate the development of Chinese grotto art.

Features

• Entry to the Dazu Rock Carvings is included, so you head straight into the complex with your guide rather than arranging tickets on site.
• Your expert guide begins their explanation of the Baodingshan rock carvings here, helping you interpret the figures and narratives carved into the rock.

Beishan rock carvings

Beishan rock carvings, known for their delicacy, form one of the major clusters within the Dazu area. You spend time here observing how the carving style differs from other sites.

Features

• With entry to the Beishan rock carvings included, you can focus on the intricate workmanship and detailed figures that give this site its reputation for delicacy.
• Your guide points out representative panels so you can compare Beishan’s fine carving style with the broader Baodingshan rock carvings you encounter during the day.

Thousand-Armed Guanyin

The Thousand-Armed Guanyin is one of the signature images of the Dazu Rock Carvings. This multi-armed bodhisattva figure demonstrates the visual impact of large-scale religious sculpture.

Features

• Entry to the Thousand-Armed Guanyin section is part of your ticket package, allowing you to approach this key carving without separate on-site purchases.
• Your guide explains how the Thousand-Armed Guanyin fits into the Baodingshan rock carvings as a whole, highlighting specific details in the hands, posture, and setting.

Reclining Buddha

The Reclining Buddha is another central highlight of the Dazu area. It illustrates Buddhist themes of nirvana through its large sculpted form.

Features

• Your guide helps you read the surrounding carvings and figures near the Reclining Buddha, tying them back to the larger narrative of the Baodingshan rock carvings.

Dazu Rock Carvings Museum

The Dazu Rock Carvings Museum adds context to what you have seen outdoors. Here you connect the on-site carvings with preserved artifacts and interpretive displays.

Features

• Your guide uses the museum displays to deepen their explanation of the Baodingshan rock carvings, pointing out models, photographs, or panels that clarify how the different sites relate to one another.

Baodingshan rock carvings

Baodingshan rock carvings form the core focus of your guided visit. This area gathers many of the key images and narrative panels that define the Dazu Rock Carvings.

Features

• Throughout Baodingshan, your expert guide provides continuous explanation of the rock carvings so you can understand the scenes and symbolism rather than just viewing them as isolated sculptures.
• Travel between Baodingshan and the other sites is covered by your private car, with round-trip door-to-door private car transfers in either a 5-seater, 7-seater, or 9-seater vehicle, as per the option you selected.
