TicketedClosure day
A working Chan Buddhist temple squeezed between office towers 400 m east of Jiefangbei — founded in the Zhiping years of the Northern Song (1064-67), rebuilt in 1885, home of the Chongqing Buddhist Association, and named for its hall of 500 clay arhats. The 20 m 'Ancient Buddha Cliff' inside keeps some 400 Song-dynasty carvings. Foreigners know it, if at all, as the temple in the 2006 film Crazy Stone.

Beat the crowds
The 1st and 15th of the lunar month are incense days and the courtyard fills with worshippers; otherwise it is quiet and half an hour is enough — go mid-morning between Jiefangbei and Hongyadong.
