Hanging around Datong
... sleeping in real, actual beds...beds with mattresses thicker than even 20cm!! Pure luxury!!!
After gorging on an impressive breakfast, we took a local bus to see the famous hanging monastery, just outside Datong. We were dropped off at the town, just a few km away from the monastery and took a taxi to the site, expecting to be able to do something similar when we were heading back to Datong.

... noodle soup item. The noodles tasted like they were freshly made but after soaking in my cup of soup for a while, it began to grow bland and tasteless. I tossed my 6 RMB breakfast away and the van began to make it way towards our first destination, the Hanging Temple (Xuankong Si).
