Hanging Temple of Hengshan - Datong, China
The magnificent, gravity defying Hanging Temple is one of the world's forgotten wonders. Clinging to a crag of Hengshan mountain the temple consists of 40 rooms linked by a dizzying maze of narrow passageways.
The temple was constructed by drilling holes into the cliffs side into which oak crossbeams and oak poles hold up the temple. The main supportive structure is hidden inside the bedrock.
The monastery is located in the small canyon basin, and the body of the building hangs from the middle of the cliff under the prominent summit, protecting the temple from rain, erosion and sunlight.
Interestingly the temple is dedicated to not just one religion, but three, with Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism all practiced within the temple and represented in 78 statues and carvings throughout the temple.
The Hanging Temple is also know as the Hanging Monastery or Xuankong, it's located about 60 km southwest of Datong, China in Shanxi province. The temple is said to have been built by a monk named Liao Ran during the late Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534 AD) and restored in 1900.
The temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In 2010, it was listed in 'Time Magazine' as the world's top ten most odd dangerous buildings.

12 Breathtaking Photos of Datong Great Wall, Shanxi
Datong is located in a basin at an elevation of 1,040 metres (3,410 ft) and borders Inner Mongolia to the north and west and Hebei to the east. Datong has been the dividing line of farming civilization in the south and nomadic people in the north since ancient times.
The strategic important location made Datong one of the most important towns in the border area of the ancient China (until Inner Mongolia became part of China later). The Great Wall of Datong (section of the whole Great Wall) has a long history.
There are ruins of the Great Wall confirmed to be built in various periods and dynasties, such as the Warring States Period (475–221 BC) , Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC), Han Dynasty (206 BC-220), Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) and Qing Dynasty (1644-1912).
According to the Great Wall Survey released in 2009, there is a total of 343.149 kilometers of ancient great wall built in the Ming Dynasty within the Datong City.
The ancient Datong Great Wall was re-built and reinforced several times in history. In 2008, a section of the ancient Great Wall was renovated (as these photos are showing).
Since the early 1980s, the Chinese government has allocated special funds to restore this national monument to its magnificance in some parts, such as the sections at Badaling, Mutianyu, and other sites.
Even today, people are still amazed by the ancient Chinese’s persistence in constructing large scale projects and determination of protecting their country from wars and instabilities.
