About This Tour
The Yungang Grottoes were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001, recognizing them as a “masterpiece of early Chinese Buddhist cave art” and acknowledging their role in the development of Buddhist art in China and East Asia. The Hanging Temple is renowned for its unique location, suspended on the cliffs of Hengshan Mountain about 50 meters above the ground. Many scenes in the recently popular game "Black Myth" are based on these two places. We will take you back to that historical period and immerse you in the game to experience these ancient monuments.We will provide a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle according to the number of people.It is worth noting that the Hanging Temple allows you to choose to climb into the temple to see the interior of the building and the cliff scenery at your feet, or just watch and take pictures from the ground. Our trip includes tickets to enter the temple, and the tour takes longer.
