The site includes thousands of red paintings on cliffs along more than 100 kilometers of the Zuojiang River.

Locals commonly call the site "Huashan," which means "mountains with pictures".

The paintings reflect the daily lives of the Luoyue people, commonly considered to be the predecessors of today's Zhuang ethnic group.
