Chong qing Baoding rock carvings

Our Cruise finished in Chong Qing formerly Chung King. Well guess what, the new and improved Chong Qing is the largest city in China!
At 33 million people it is also the largest city in the world. Who would have thunk it? Our guide David whipped us out of the city so fast that we didn't have much time to gawk. We instead went to the Baoding rock carvings. The rock carvings were also part of a Buddhist temple, that had been mostly out of use for and extended period, and only had been restored to accepting tourists in the 80's. The carvings date to the 12th century, and considering are in really good condition. Some of the statues are huge as you can see by the size of the person at the foot of the one. The Pagoda in the hand of that same statue is over 500 kilos. Looks like he is about to drop it on that guys head!
The reclining Buddha is equally huge, but i didn't get anyone in the shot to give perspective. TO give an idea the smaller statues in front of him are much larger than life too. Later that day we also went to the Stillwell museum and the Flying Tigers museum. I don't know anything about the Sino Japan War, but did learn that Chong Qing was bombed by the Japanese for 4 years from 1939 to 1943. We saw one of the bomb shelters, huge long tunnels into the mountain. Didn't look too pleasant!
