Hanging Temple

The building itself is a miracle. However, the parking lot is set up in the opposite direction of the scenic spot. You need to take a shuttle bus to arrive. You need to collect the first ticket below the door. You need to pay an additional fee for the landing. I hope that this expensive landing fee will be used for the protection of cultural relics. In ten years, you can still climb a hundred feet of dangerous buildings. In addition, if you do not buy the ticket, you can also queue up to try it. If the number of people is not too much, you can generally make up the ticket on the spot.

The suspension temple has existed for more than 1,500 years, and it is still as strong as ever, which shows the superb architectural level at that time. The tour route of the entire suspension temple is basically the original way back. When going up and down the temple, you need to pay attention to the safety of the crowd and play for more than an hour.

The Hanging Temple is beautiful and atmospheric. It was built in the late Northern Wei Dynasty (491) and has been more than 1,500 years ago. It is a unique temple of Buddha, Tao and Confucianism. The "Hanging Temple" architecture is very distinctive, known as the precipitousness of the abyss. There is no battery car information on the official website, etc., and the car is stopped at the temporary parking lot 2 kilometers away from the attraction. The round-trip 20 is all stone paving. The height is uneven. The return trip is not at the place of getting on the bus. Take the stone road back to the parking place.

The Hanging Temple was founded in the late Northern Wei Dynasty (491) and has been more than 1,500 years since, and is a unique temple of the unity of Buddha, Tao and Confucianism. "Suspended Temple" architecture is very characteristic, as the precipitous and famous, known as "Suspended Temple, half a day high, three horse tail hanging in the sky" slang, as the precipitous and famous.

Hunyuan County, Datong City, Shanxi Province, this time I came to Shanxi to travel. The suspension temple is the second place to come. The weather in Shanxi is also very cold. We drove to the suspension temple in the morning. There were not many tourists. Get off and look around. It is a Grand Canyon, the cliff is standing on the side, steep and steep, It is a masterpiece of nature's magical work. On the uneven mountain, the rock cracks form a ditch, with few vegetation and no green layers. The opposite suspension temple hangs in the middle of the cliff, looking up at the sky like a big skylight, hanging in the middle of the temple. Looking from a distance, the temple is half-hanging and half-stand, giving people the feeling is so steep, as if it will collapse in a blink of an eye, of course, tourists should not worry, because it has been hanging on the cliff for more than 1,500 years. The suspension temple has only one plank road that can accommodate 2-3 people. Tourists consciously queue up to visit, and cannot retrograde. I walk and watch as the flow of people. At the beginning of every step of the suspension temple is careful, for fear of any accident, the suspension temple plank road is wooden, some places can also see the cliff below from the small gap. The area of the hanging temple is not large, nor can it be large. The three gods of the main temple, Confucianism, Shi, and Taoism live in the same hall together. It is convenient to exchange ideas. The Buddha is the Buddha, Sakyamuni, on the left is Confucius, the Confucian ancestor, and on the right is the founder of Taoism, Laozi Li Er. It is the only Confucianism in China. Unique temple of the three religions of Shi and Tao. The three church masters gathered together to reflect the idea of the confluence of Confucianism, release and Taoism, and integrate the Confucianism "and for the sake of the noble", "benevolent love benevolence", "wise people see wisdom", "no measure of people", " courtesy first", and "pudu all beings" in Buddhism.

Above the cliff, the scale is spectacular. Only by seeing it firsthand can you appreciate the real miracles! Just like the "spectacular" of Shixian Li Bai and the "great view of the world" of Xu Xiake, the big traveler, are the real feelings after seeing the hanging temple. What I look forward to most during this trip to Datong is seeing the Hanging Temple firsthand.

Must go early, now open at 8 o'clock, there are already people queuing at the entrance at 7:30, if you board, you must go early and go early, as soon as you open the door to catch up with the first wave of boarding, do not let it queue for a long time, after entering the door, turn right and board the queue, we arrived around 7:40, There are more than 20 tourists in the front, basically there is not much time to stay, because everyone is in line to walk, the road above is relatively narrow, the steps are very steep, but it is worthwhile to visit it firsthand.

The Hanging Temple is the most "burning money" attraction in this trip. The scenic spot is under Hengshan, and the tickets are divided into entrance tickets (15 yuan) and landing tickets (100 yuan). Tickets can only be viewed at the foot of the Hanging Temple, and the landing ticket can be intimately contacted by the cliff wall with the Hanging Temple. Due to the special structure of the suspension temple, basically only a single "road" can walk alone, so the flow is limited, and the peak season basically needs to queue up one by one from the shade corridor at the foot of the mountain. According to follow-up communication, the peak season is normal in the morning 3-4 hours, and in the afternoon 1-3 hours. Because the itinerary is close and it is difficult to buy (the peak season needs to be booked about a week in advance), I found that there is a VIP direct ticket (excluding guides, the price is hundreds of), and then buy it on the cliff. Since it is here, it is recommended to ask the tour guide to explain, otherwise it is rare to have the essence. The entire Suspension Temple is less than an hour after listening to it. Although it is more expensive, it is still very worthwhile. ⚠ Due to the special suspension structure of the Suspension Temple, fat people are said to not let them go. Friends above 90kg suggest to consult in advance.
