Recognised as one of the final monuments in the history of cave art, the Dazu Rock Carvings in Chongqing mark the mature stage of this artistic tradition. Carved into cliff faces between the 9th and 13th centuries, more than 100,000 statues interweave Buddhist, Taoist, and Confucian ideas, offering a vivid window into Chinese society and philosophy a thousand years ago.
