Built in 1064-1067 of Northern Song Dynasty, and located in the busiest downtown area of Chongqing, Arhat Temple (Luohan Si) is one of the major Buddhist Temples in the region mainly inhabited by the Han people.
At its peak, this temple was home to 70 monks. Nowadays this number has dropped considerably but nonetheless the temple is still popular with local worshippers.
The temple's most notable feature is its entrance flanked by rock carvings, many of which have survived the onslaught of time and pollution.
