Day 2 The Hanging Temple, Yungang Grottoes
Drive out of Datong to visit the Hanging Temple (about 84km). The Hanging Temple was built into a cliff (75-metre (246 ft) above the ground) near Mount Heng more than 1,500 years ago. This temple is notable not only for its location on a sheer precipice but also because it is the only existing temple with the combination of three Chinese traditional religions: Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. Continue with a visit to Yungang Grottoes. The massive Yungang Buddhist grottoes were cut from the mid-5th Century to early-6th Century AD. Comprising 252 caves and niches and 51,000 statues within a carved area of 18,000 square meters, the Yungang Grottoes represent the outstanding achievement of Buddhist cave art in China. Yungang Grottoes have played a vitally important role among early Oriental Buddhist grottoes and had a far-reaching impact on Buddhist cave art in China and East Asia.

Day 3 Yanmen Pass Great Wall, Yingxian Wooden Pagoda
Drive out of Datong to Yanmen Pass Great Wall (about 156km). Yanmen Pass is a mountain pass which includes three fortified gatehouses along the Great Wall of China. The area was a strategic check point in ancient China, controlling access between the valleys of central Shanxi and the Eurasian Steppe. This made it the scene of various important battles, extending into World War Two. Afterwards, visit Yingxian Wooden Pagoda. Completed in the 2nd Year of the reign of Qingning in Liao Dynasty (year of 1056), this pagoda was known as “the first pagoda” during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which means that “there are large numbers of Buddha pagodas in the world, but the Wooden Pagoda of Yingxian County is the first one”. It plays an important role in the history of ancient Chinese architecture. Also, it is the oldest and tallest wooden multi-storey building of the world.
