Embark on a private 12-hour journey to the Yungang Grottoes, one of the historical gems of northern China, from Beijing. Discover this UNESCO-recognized bastion of early Buddhist cave art near Datong and spend plenty of time exploring its extensive array of 252 grottoes, home to thousands of Buddhist effigies. Witness prominent features such as the immense Buddha cliff sculpture, and delve into smaller caverns and niches adorned with murals and figurines, many of which date back to the 5th century. The package includes lunch, private transportation, and pickup and drop-off at a central hotel.
