Xujiang Xiaowo Stone Inscription

Xujiang Xiaowo Stone Inscription is a collection of characters carved into stone and arranged across multiple rock surfaces. The inscriptions are set outdoors and show how different texts were carefully placed side by side.

The stone inscriptions were created several centuries ago and document an important cultural period in the Kinmen region. They show how people preserved their writings in lasting form across time.

The stone carvings show how local artisans preserved written records in lasting form through skilled handiwork. They reflect the ways communities kept knowledge and important information alive across generations.

The site is reachable from central Jincheng Township by local transportation and easy to navigate once you arrive. Visiting during daylight hours helps you see the carved details clearly.

Each inscription keeps its original position and angle, letting researchers examine how the different texts relate to each other in space. This arrangement reveals patterns in how messages were intentionally placed relative to one another.
