The entrance to Cave 6 has a large niche of the Sui dynasty carved on both sides. Other smaller carvings of later periods appear on the façade and on the front of the altar inside. The altar extends around three walls of Cave 6 still has most of the original thrones and pedestals of the sculptural figures remaining. These preserve the positions of the sculpted images in the cave and show that many were free-standing figures. Unlike the principle images at Northern Xiangtangshan, many of the sculptures at this site were carved outside of the caves perhaps in workshops and the finished sculptures placed into the caves. Historic photographs provide evidence of the appearance of some of the original groups of sculptures, though some were repaired by that time already. Fragments of the seated Buddhas and bodhisattvas still remain at the site though their heads have been taken.
