Colorful day at Maijishan Grottoes

Had a beautiful day exploring all the Grottoes of Maijishan, the view from the Grottoes is maybe more beautiful than the carvings themselves. 🦵🏽Arrive earlier in the day to beat the tourists and leave before the heat of the day. 🦵🏽Pay for the shuttle bus, the walk to the tourist centre is really far and you have to climb up Maijishan as well. Don't exhaust yourself. 🦵🏽The caves and mountain are worth viewing but be aware, to protect the statues there is metal wire fences over almost everything, making it difficult to see and photograph. 🦵🏽Expect a lot of attention, I had a lot of people pointing out the 老外 to their friends all day 😓
