😐 It was a temple built by hollowing out a rock. It was the same at Sado Gold Mine, but if you touch the rocks inside the cave, they will fall to pieces. The chief priest is a good storyteller and never gets tired of it. It reminded me of when I went to Beijing because I could see the bare surface of...
