I thought Shigang was more beautiful until I came to Xiangtangshan...

I thought Yungang and Longmen were impressive enough until I came to Xiangtangshan Grottoes. I was amazed again by the ingenious craftsmanship of our ancestors. I regretted it and realized that it was too low-key. 🚗Self-drive📲 Navigate to Xiangtangshan Scenic Area, there is a parking lot available🅿️, the parking fee is 10💰. 🎫Tickets: Adult ticket 60💰 per person, student ticket 30💰 per person, senior citizen and child ticket 30💰 per person 【Tour route】🚶🏻‍♀️ There is a shuttle bus in the scenic area 🚌, which goes directly to the top of the mountain. The tour route from top to bottom: 🚶🏻‍♀️Big Buddha Cave (the most important) ➡️Shakya Cave ➡️Scripture Cave Changle Temple Ruins (cover of "National Geographic") ➡️Digital Museum (Big Buddha in the first picture) ➡️Xiangtang Temple 【Must-check-in highlights】🏝 ✅Big Buddha Cave The main Buddha of the largest cave in Beixiangtang Mountain with the highest artistic value is 5m high, with backlit relief flames and seven fire dragons with honeysuckle patterns. It is recommended to come in the afternoon, when the sun shines through the cave from the west and just falls on the Buddha statue✅Shakya Cave Typical stupa-shaped cave in Beixiang Hall🏔 Inherited the central pillar cave style of Yungang Grottoes ✅Scripture Cave An important site for the engraving of Buddhist scriptures during the Northern Qi Dynasty🎒 You can vaguely see scriptures such as "The Sutra of Infinite Meaning" and "The Sutra of Demonic Questions"📖 Note ⚠️ 1️⃣Light problem: It is darker in the morning when you go to Beixiangtang because it faces west, so the light is better when you go in the afternoon. But if you take the through train, there is no way.👀 2️⃣Please be civilized and do not touch the statues🏔 3️⃣Pet-friendly 👍 4️⃣Currently Changle Temple is not open and can only be photographed through the window 🥳 Be sure to go to the Digital Art Museum🥰
