Tour Plan

Tag 01 Datong Arrival -Hanging Templ-Yingxian Wooden Pagoda-Datong

Take train to Datong, you will be meet by your driver and guide

One hour drive to Hanging Temple,true to its name, the Hanging Temple is hanging on a cliff. Ancient people built this temple to store food and water for people who passed by, and accepted three major Chinese religions, so that travelers of those religions could stay there.

Why built so high? It followed a requirement of Taoism: "Do not hear the rooster crow and dog bark." It meant the temple had to be built in a quiet place, far from noisy living.

Then go head (1h drive) to the Yingxian Wooden Pagoda. As a UNESCO site, the Yingxian Wooden Pagoda is the oldest and tallest surviving wooden structure in China.

Then drive back to Datong city , hanging around on the Datong City Wall
