After four years of work, Li Hongpeng recently finished his micro-engraving project, the 860,000-character Journey to the West, at his studio in Changchun, Jilin province.
The red and white stone carvings depict the scene of the classic Chinese tale of the travels of the Monkey King and his three disciples. The flat surfaces of Li's stones are covered with densely packed characters.
