Clusters of intricately carved niches adorn a stone cliff, showcasing the artistic detail of ancient Buddhist sculptures. Statues of seated figures are visible in many alcoves, varying in size and depth. The stone surface is weathered, revealing grey hues with coarse textures, contributing to the honeycomb appearance. These are part of the Longmen Grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage site in China, known for its historical and religious significance, featuring thousands of statues and inscriptions.
