1. Jianchuan County: Baizu County, where Apeng in the movie "Five Golden Flowers" comes from Jianchuan.

Jingfeng Park in the west of the city is a free public park, and some ancient buildings have been moved here. This is a good way, which is not only conducive to the protection of cultural relics, but also convenient for people to appreciate.

It is famous for its grotto statues in Dali Kingdom of Nanzhao. Fei Xiaotong once praised: there are Dunhuang murals in the north and Jianchuan Grottoes in the south.

The grottoes are small in scale, with a strong Buddhist atmosphere, and the natural landscape belongs to the Danxia landform.

Haiyun Residence:

Enter the gate and walk about 200 meters. The stone steps on the left lead to Haiyunju built on the mountain. Pay attention to the murals in the main hall.

Baoxiang Temple:

After 1.5 kilometers, we arrived at the parking lot under Baoxiang Temple. The temple is in the middle of the mountain on the right.

It was built in the Yuan Dynasty, and it is a bit of a suspended style. It takes 20 minutes to climb, and there are monkeys along the way.

If you continue to climb the mountain for half an hour, you can reach the dilapidated Jinding Temple via Lingquan Nunnery.

Stone Bell Temple:

It is 7 kilometers from Baoxiang Temple to Shizhong Temple, the road surface is flat, and the end point is the parking lot of Shizhong Temple. It takes nearly 10 minutes to walk to Shizhong Temple. Then visit the most essential grottoes in Shibao Mountain.

Shizhong Temple is a small temple. There is a huge cauliflower-shaped red sandstone in the yard, which looks like an upside-down clock.

The grottoes are on the mountain behind the temple and need to pass through the temple. Several grottoes take ten minutes. You can't miss the "Ayangbai" grotto, which looks like a female genitalia. Reproductive worship and Buddha statues are enshrined together, which is an inconclusive mystery.

The Ganlu Guanyin in Cave No. 7 is known as the Oriental Venus.

The grottoes in the deep mountains are not very damaged. The characters, flowers and birds are lifelike, and their expressions are portrayed in detail.

Opposite Mountain: Lion Pass

Small grottoes: statues of the Nanzhao king's family, Buddhist monks, and Persian figures.
