Description

Martin Ellis - 10/08/2019

The entrance is reached by a steep climb up a flight of 215 steps. The main chamber has three openings which light up a glowing golden chedi and a large reclining Buddha statue beneath a graceful canopy, surrounded by miniature figures. Red lanterns suspended on poles lend a Chinese touch to the scene. A level passage behind the chedi leads to a small exit on the other side of the mountain after 100 m.
