Day 3: Baodingshan Rock Carvings
7 janvier 2025, Chine ⋅ 🌧 7 °C
Dazu Rock Carving area is divided into several sites. Today we will just be visiting Baodingshan and Beishan, these 2 areas to make it a full day in Dazu. Dazu Rock Carving was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage. This is the 3rd Carving sites that we visited in China. Still unique and amazing.

It’s surprising that there are not many tourists here! We don’t have to crowd with people. Probably because it is cold and wet today.En savoir plus

People said it’s less stunning than the Baodingshan Rock Carving. However, we still find it quite interesting. It has a longer history than Baodingshan. We are happy that we could be so close to the rock carvings that we could actually see the details.En savoir plus
