Dazu Rock Carvings

Getting there

The carvings are outside central Chongqing. For the main Baodingshan visit, route to 大足石刻宝顶山景区. If traveling by rail or coach, allow a road transfer from the arrival station.

Admission

Buy for the carving sites you will actually visit. Baodingshan and Beishan are separate. Check whether the ticket includes transport inside the scenic area.

What to see

At the main rock carving areas, step back to take in whole scenes before picking out smaller figures and details.

Plan your visit

Make this a separate trip from central Chongqing. Check which carving areas you want to see and budget time for travel between stops.

Treat this as a full day from the center. Start with Baodingshan and add Beishan only if your return transport leaves enough time.
