I thought the Longmen Grottoes were impressive, until I arrived at Xiangtangshan

I took the kids to Handan in Hebei This city that has not changed its name for 3000 years Of course, the most impressive to me was the Xiangtangshan Grottoes in Handan, Hebei The CCTV documentary has also filmed here (highly recommend everyone to watch) It is a royal grotto that began in the Northern Qi period Later it suffered destruction during the Northern Zhou and the Republic of China periods Many Buddha statues have been lost overseas In the Northern Xiangtangshan Grottoes, the Great Buddha Cave, Sakyamuni Cave, and Scripture Carving Cave are the most interesting, it is said that the coffin material of Gao Yang's father Gao Huan from the Northern Qi Wenxuan Emperor is in the Great Buddha Cave. . 📍Handan Xiangtangshan Grottoes 🎫It is suggested to buy the sightseeing car ticket as well, which is 💰90 ⏰8:00-17:30 ⚠️1️⃣Xiangtangshan Grottoes are divided into South and North Xiangtangshan Grottoes, if you have time, it is recommended to visit both, the South Xiangtangshan is small but exquisite, mainly for murals, while the North Xiangtangshan is grand and spectacular, the two are 15 kilometers apart 2️⃣It can be visited together with Xinyilu Sculpture and China Ci Kiln 3️⃣The digital museum of North Xiangtangshan Grottoes and the ruins of Changle Temple are also very worth visiting 4️⃣It is recommended to watch the CCTV documentary about Xiangtangshan Grottoes or find a guide at the foot of the mountain before visiting the grottoes 5️⃣After entering the scenic area, you can take the sightseeing car up the mountain, then walk up the stairs for about ten minutes, otherwise it's quite tiring to walk up, there may be a queue for the sightseeing car on weekends, and there is a small shop on the mountain. .
