Art Made By Nature: The Power Of The Wind

Buddhist Grottoes with beautiful sculptures can bee seen in many Chinese provinces, often dated thousand years ago. They have often been subjected to the problems of history: wars, revolutions, or invasions. In hard times, many have been destroyed by combat or simply looted for their financial potential.

The Mingshan Temple’s grottoes in South-West China’s Sichuan province are a bit more special. They have been carved during Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty, but were not protected from the win and other natural wonders, so they took a new aspect that’s just as beautiful, although a bit more unusual.
