I rarely use the word 'stunning' to describe a place

I've always rarely used 'stunning' to describe a scenic spot! Not until I came to the deep mountains of Sichuan and found this stone carving relic that was rumored to have been sculpted by 'wind and the passage of time'. Thread by thread, the wind has carved out another kind of natural beauty from the once sculptures. Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, and Buddha is formless, showing us the shape of the wind! Location: Ming Mountain Temple, Anyue, Sichuan Admission: Free, about 2 hours drive from Chengdu The most surprising part of my trip to ancient buildings in Sichuan was the Ming Mountain Temple in Anyue, Sichuan. Coming from the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty a thousand years ago, after enduring a millennium of wind, rain, and the passage of time, it has achieved another kind of indescribable beauty. This is probably the ultimate aesthetic deeply ingrained in our ancestors' bones! This place is far from the city, hidden in the deep mountains, so it is little known, rarely visited, and still considered a relatively niche treasure spot. It is recommended to drive there yourself, as there is no other transportation in the countryside. In addition to Ming Mountain Temple in Anyue, there are other stone carvings such as Pilu Cave, Qianfo Temple, and Yuanjue Cave. It is suggested to arrange a two-day trip to see them all at once, and you will definitely be stunned by the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty from a thousand years ago!

A seriously underestimated treasure. The Dazu to Anyue line is really underestimated too much. Such a treasure trove is not well known. Due to publicity.
