Package 1: Driver - Only Service

Meet your driver at your city hotel. Embark on a comfortable journey to the Yungang Grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stands as a testament to ancient Chinese artistry. Carved between the 5th and 6th centuries, these grottoes house over 51,000 Buddhist statues, ranging from towering 17 - meter - high figures to delicate, intricately detailed smaller carvings. The blend of Indian Buddhist art with Chinese traditional styles creates a visual spectacle that is both awe - inspiring and historically significant.

Your driver will patiently await at the parking lot while you soak in the splendor at your own pace. Once you've had your fill, continue on to the Hanging Temple, an architectural marvel that seems to defy the laws of nature. Suspended 75 meters above the ground on the side of a precipitous cliff, this temple has endured for over 1,500 years.
