On the 300-meter-long, 7-meter-high slope, sculptures and carvings depicting the  lives of local people throughout the ages can be seen. 

The northern section of the hill is home to works dating to the late Tang Dynasty while the southern half contains art from the Southern and Northern Song Dynasties.
