Gongyi Grotto Temple | The awe and beauty of thousand-year-old stone carvings.

| The awe and beauty of thousand-year-old stone carvings. 📍Address: Siwan Village, Heluo Town, Gongyi City, Henan Province Gongyi Grotto Temple is a low-key ancient temple that carries a heavy history and artistic treasures. Stepping into the temple, time seems to flow backward. The exquisite stone-carved Buddha statues, either solemn or smiling, each tell the glory of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The reliefs in the grottoes are delicate and detailed. Whether it is the flying apsaras or the lively musicians, they seem to break through the walls and play ancient music in your ears. Walking around, the mottled light and shadow fall on the ancient stone walls, quiet and sacred. There are not many tourists here, allowing you to calm down and savor the charm of each carving, feeling the craftsmanship of ancient artisans. In the noisy world, Gongyi Grotto Temple is like a pure land, waiting for you to explore its mystery and beauty, and encounter a spiritual dialogue across a thousand years.💕
