Day 5 - CHANGSHOU- DAZU - Dazu Rock Carvings.

• The Dazu Stone Carvings. The well-preserved carvings are representative of an ancient Chinese art tradition. They are also a very important position in the religious, artistic and cultural history of China. The largest, richest and most exquisite collection of statues is at the foot of Baoshan Hill.

A local guide explaining the history of the rock carvings.

Listed as a World Heritage Site in 1999, the Dazu Rock Carvings are made up of 75 protected sites containing some 50,000 statues, with over 100,000 Chinese characters forming inscriptions and epigraphs. (Source)

Day 5 - Changzhou to Dazu - Lunch

Before heading to our next sightseeing in Dazu, we had lunch in this restaurant. Outside the restaurant are some stalls selling local fruits. We bought some especially the oranges were very sweet.

Again a big feast of many dishes for lunch hahaha

Pigs  trotters

I put on some weight after my whole trip kekeke.

Day 5 - Changzhou to Dazu - Anju Ancient City

 Anju Ancient City is a historical and cultural town. Renowned for its palaces, temples and beautiful scenery, it is known for its distinct blend of Chengdu and Chongqing culture.

Today sightseeing was a walk to the past, an ancient city of Anju. After so many days in Chongqing, today started to rain.

It's a pity but we managed take some street photography of the ancient city. Would be better if the weather is drier and we can take more nice photos.

There are some shops selling local snacks and food.

Souvenir shops too

Love how the greenery overtake the stairs.
