History


Description

This is a cave temple with an impressive view from the cave entrance. The reason is that the cave is located rather high above the plain. Numerous trails with buddha statues and pagodas lead up to the cave entrance.

Behind the temple is a huge cave passage. It is possible to follow the cave through the mountain to the other side, where an elevated trail made of iron bars allow an incredible view over the plain and the river.
