Chongqing - After visiting the gorgeous natural landscape in Fengjie County of Chongqing, Lee and Oli who runs the popular YouTube Channel called Barrett spent another 4 days in Dazu District, where they explored the charming Chinese culture and history.  

iChongqing conducted an interview with Barrett while they were in Dazu to share their wonderful experience in the district.

No one can leave Dazu District without visiting the UNESCO World Heritage Site – Dazu Rock Carvings. Baoding Grotto is Barrett’s first stop at the Dazu District where they learned a lot about Buddhism. “ We were able to see the very famous sculpture – Thousand Hands Buddha. It’s insanely beautiful.” Oli said. “We went to the Beishan Rock Carvings. Lots of caves and grottos in the rocks.  It blows my mind that it’s there for 11 hundred years already.” Lee added.
