Lingquan Temple is located in the western peak of Cuiwei Mountain in Hunyuan County, Datong City, built according to the mountain terrain, like a suspended temple, and dances with the cliffs. Inside the temple, thousand-year-old ancient pines have twisted branches and empty space, their trunks are as strong as dragons, and the bark is mottled with the traces of time. The canopy is always shrouded in the mist of the perennial springs. The temple’s colorful murals are painted with mineral pigments, telling Buddhist stories from a thousand years ago, with the contrast of ochre and turquoise vividly alive, with flying figures’ robes fluttering, it seems to hear the sound of the surrounding Buddhist chants. - Lingquan Temple is located in the western peak of Cuiwei Mountain in Hunyuan County, Datong City, built according to the mountain terrain, like a suspended temple, and dances with the cliffs.
