The Shikong Temple Grottoes are located at the southern foot of Shuanglong Mountain in the northwest of Shikong Town, Zhongning County. Also known as the Great Buddha Temple, Shuanglong Mountain was called Shikong Mountain in ancient times, with steep stone walls on the east side, suitable for caves and statues. There used to be Dafo Cave, Wanfo Temple, Baizi Guanyin Cave and Lingguang Cave, but now, except for Wanfo Temple, all the caves are buried by quicksand.

This is not the Shikong Temple Grottoes in Ningxia, this is the Shikong Temple Grottoes in Yuan County, Qingyang Town, Gansu Province! ! [Opening hours] If you look at it from a distance, you can watch it for free 24 hours a day. Seeing that there are a lot of spotlights installed below, the square in front will probably be very lively at night, so you can see the night view. [Watching] On the roadside of the county, you can see a row of cliff-standing Buddha statues, which are the Shikong Temple Grottoes, a national key cultural relic protection unit. I haven't checked the information yet, but some netizens said that this is a statue from the Song Dynasty, and the style is quite similar. But I can't understand, this is the national security, why is it not the Luohandong Grottoes in Jingchuan? The stairs on both sides are locked, so you can only look up from below. There is a corridor connecting the two caves, and there are inscriptions. I always feel that there may be Buddha statues on the cliffs that extend farther away.
