According to archeologists, the earliest rock paintings found in the region date back 10,000 years; the most recent rock painting found goes back hundreds of years.

Many such paintings have been found in Qagan Oboo and at, what is now, the cultural relic preservation center for lama temple in Durong Oboo Sumu.
