Check out the breathtaking Hanging Temple in the northern Chinese city of Datong – a 1,500-year-old monastery that clings to a cliff with nothing more than wooden beams. Through holes drilled into the cliff and oak crossbeams inserted into them, the monastery halls hug the contours of the cliff-face, connected by timber ramps and corridors. The structure is not just a historical site of worship, but also a stunning engineering feat and a true wonder of the world. #Roadtoxiaokangsociety | CGTN
