The scale of the Hangkong Temple is not large, but the whole temple, supported on the cliff by the pine pole of the thick and thin arm (ordinary lady's arm), is really dangerous. Walking on the road of the hanging temple, looking at the front and the top of the head, and occasionally looking down at the mountains, I think that the Chinese people, especially the ancient people who devoted themselves to practice, are really admirable, whether they are physically, intellectually or persistently. But at the same time, I suggest that you never go to see more pine trees supporting the temple, because the more you look, the more afraid you will be, the more soft you will be. Many of the pine trees that support the whole temple are only half or less at the bottom, standing on the prominent small rocks on the cliff wall. When you look at them, it seems that the road under your feet is shaking imperceptibly and you can't afford to fall down at any time. The more you look, the more scared you are!!! And the temple hall actually has two floors, which are supported by small stones and thin trunks. Really soft legs! Are you weak? I didn't know until I passed by. The Hangkong Temple is about 2.5 hours'drive away from Datong City. The tour time is about 1.5 hours. Next door is Hengshan Mountain. It's also about 1 hour's tour time. So it's a waste of time for a single day, but it's a pity not to go. However, Miao is in the middle of the road from Datong to Wutai Mountain, so if you want to play with the Yungang Grottoes in Datong, you should go to Wutai Mountain again. It is suggested that you play with Yungang Grottoes in the morning, have lunch in Datong, have a tour in Datong in the afternoon and in the evening, and get up early the next day to go to the Hangkong Temple. The driver will ask if you want to go to Hengshan or whether you want to go there. Wutai Mountain? Then the teacher will tell you when and where to wait for Wutai Mountain's car to come and take you away. It's basically about 8 p.m. to Wutai Mountain. This is not a waste of time, but also a leisure to play.

    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.

    Really ​ The sky pavilion admires the wisdom of the ancients. Built in the later stage of Northern Wei, it is a temple where the three religions of Buddha, Tao and Confucianism are unified. There is a section of railing that is very short and scary. There is a big brother who is afraid to squat and walk, which is very funny, hahaha. Maybe I am short enough. The peach blossoms on the opposite Hengshan Mountain are open, and the scenery is beautiful.

    The ancients are really wise. It is difficult for you to imagine that there is no nail on such a cliff. A temple is built from local materials, and it is very exquisite. There is a waterfall next to it. We say that the ancients are really too good to choose a place. Every time you look at the antiquities, you will be amazed once, and you will constantly refresh your understanding.

    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.

    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.
