The Nanshan Rock Carvings were created during the Shaoxing period of the Southern Song Dynasty (1131–1162 AD). The carved cliff spans over 80 meters in length and ranges from 3 to 10 meters in height, with the carvings classified into a total of 15 numbered niches, some of which were supplemented during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The main subjects include depictions of Daoist deities such as the Zhenwu Emperor, the Empress of the Earth, as well as the Sanqing Cave and Dragon Cave. This site is considered the most exquisite and comprehensive collection of Daoist sculptures from the Southern Song period in China.
