During this period, the most representative cave is No. 169, the rest of the 172 and No. 1, No. 126, No. 128, No. 132, No. 2, No. 124, No. 125 and No. 16 caves are also famous.
Though the statues carved during this period were of Buddha and Bodhisattva as Hu Shen, most of them, except for the inherent styles of physical appearance, hand prints, and clothing, abandoned the Gandhara Buddha statue as an artistic archetype, incorporated the local life feelings and aesthetic requirements of the craftsmen, and fused their own feelings and ideal contents with those of the Chinese believers. In particular, there are famous lists of foundation ink scripts near the statues and mural figures. This is clearly a succession of traditional forms since the Han Dynasty. The statues in the grottoes are lifelike, graceful and elegant, with smooth lines of costumes, and overall skillful and delicate techniques. To the Tang Dynasty, due to the prosperity of Buddhism, the wind of statue-making again, that is, the Bingling Temple Grottoes excavation of the second major period.

Most of the statues in the caves and niches of the Tang Dynasty were one Buddha and two Bodhisattvas (or four Bodhisattvas) and two heavenly kings, while others were one Buddha and two Lohan and two Bodhisattvas and two heavenly kings. The characteristics of the Bingling Temple Grottoes statues in this period are similar to the overall style of Tang Dynasty statues, which emphasize the beauty of health and abundance, but also have their own unique features, such as long faces, dynamic exaggeration, angularity in the undulation, and more rough and powerful knife. Thereafter, in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, the Bingling Temple Grottoes were modified, but the excavation of the grottoes tended to decline. Bing Si Grottoes are relatively early in the history of China's grotto excavation.
