Your morning begins in Changzhou Ancient City, a riverside settlement in Dazu with more than a thousand years of history. Once the seat of Changzhou Prefecture, this compact old town features stone-paved streets, traditional wooden houses, guild halls and small temples that reflect its Tang and Song Dynasty roots. It is a pleasant place to stretch your legs, try local snacks and get a feel for everyday life in the Dazu area before heading to the rock carvings.
-
The Dazu Rock CarvingsNext, you continue to Baodingshan(with English speaking guide or English instructor), the most impressive cluster of the Dazu Rock Carvings, inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for their outstanding religious art and vivid scenes of daily life in medieval China. Here you follow a walkway past huge rock reliefs carved between the 12th and 13th centuries, with detailed Buddhist figures, narrative panels and expressive faces that are remarkably well preserved. Your guide will help you notice important details and explain how Buddhism, Taoism and Confucian ideas are all woven into the carvings. After that, you will visit Beishan Stone Carvings(with English guide or explore on your own). Dating from the late Tang to the Southern Song dynasties, they are renowned for their grand scale, rich Buddhist and Taoist themes, and exquisitely detailed statues carved along a 300‑meter cliff face, earning them the reputation of a “museum of Tang and Song Buddhist sculpture.”
-
(If selected English guide)In the late afternoon, you drive back towards Chongqing and stop at Ciqikou Ancient Town, a lively historic quarter on the Jialing River. Once a busy porcelain port, today Ciqikou is known for its old streets, traditional courtyard houses, temples and teahouses, as well as a wide range of street food. You can wander along the stone lanes, visit a temple or riverside pier, sample local snacks and soak up the mix of history and everyday life as the lanterns start to glow.
