A Piece of History You Shouldn’t Miss: Luoyang Grottoes 🏯🪶

#hellohalloween

Standing before the Luoyang (Longmen) Grottoes feels like standing at the crossroads of history and spirituality. Carved into limestone cliffs along the Yi River, these magnificent caves hold over 100,000 Buddha statues, some small enough to fit in your hand, others towering above you in silent majesty 🙏✨.

Each carving tells a story — of emperors, monks, and artists who shaped one of the greatest treasures of Chinese civilization. As the sun sets, golden light dances across the faces of the Buddhas, giving the entire site a warm, almost otherworldly glow 🌅
