Situated in Gande County, the Ganglong Sutra Stone Wall is formed by a piling up of stone plates carved with sutras. The plates are between one-and three-centimeters thick. At two-meter intervals along the wall is a square niche, inside which is a stone plate carved with a Buddhist image. The wall is about 50 m long and about 3 m high. The stone is hard and dense in texture, not of local origin.
