Arrived to Beijing, we flew to Lanzhou, in the Gansu province in China. From there, we planned a day trip to Bingling temple, south west of Lanzhou. To reach Bingling, we took a taxi until the Liujiaxia reservoir lake, and then a boat from the lake shore, I am guessing somewhere close to Hexinping, although not sure where exactly: it was the taxi driver who brought us to a peer where boats were departing.
The location of the temple complex is stunning and the temples are composed of a series of grottoes containing several statues, dispersed along a beautiful clay coloured valley.
The statues included the huge 27m Buddha pictured below.
