I rarely use the word "stunning" to describe a place.

The filming location of Black Myth: Wukong—Xiaoxitian Temple in Xixian County, Linfen, Shanxi Province—is a masterpiece of Chinese hanging sculpture art! Founded in the second year of the Chongzhen reign of the Ming Dynasty, the Thousand Buddha Temple (also known as Xiaoxitian Temple) is named after the thousand Buddha statues in its main hall. The ancient architecture and exquisite hanging sculptures tell stories of historical glory and are truly awe-inspiring. While you're there, check out the Hanging Temple, Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, and Yungang Grottoes. A week isn't enough to explore all the beauty Shanxi has to offer, so come back again when the weather is cooler!
