Introduction to the scenic spot:
Longmen Grottoes, located in Luoyang City, Henan Province, is the largest treasure house of stone carving art with the largest number of statues in the world. It has been rated as the highest peak of stone carving art by UNESCO, ranking first among all the stone caves in China. Now it is a world cultural heritage, a national key cultural relic protection unit and a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction. Longmen was dug by Dayu in the flood control, and the legend of fish jumping over Longmen also happened here. Its grottoes began to be carved during the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty and finally ended in the late Qing Dynasty.
After more than 1 dynasties, it has been built for more than 1,4 years, making it the longest grotto in the world. There are 2,345 existing grottoes and more than 11, statues, which were painted a lot during construction, but most of them have faded. The Iraqi water accumulated in Longmen Shan Zhinan, but was blocked from flowing northward by this mountain, forming a Wang Yang, which was often flooded. Therefore, Dayu cut the Longmen Mountain and divided it into two parts, so that Yi water could flow northward from the middle of the two mountains.
