Snow covers hanging temple, wooden pagoda in N China

01:01

The Xuankong Temple, or Hanging Temple, in Hunyuan County of northern China's Shanxi Province is covered in snow. The 1,500-year-old temple has a total of 40 halls and pavilions built on cliffs, over 30 meters from ground level. Walking up to this temple in snowy weather is challenging. Snow has also wrapped the Yingxian Wooden Pagoda on the outskirts of Shuozhou City. Built in 1056, it's the world's oldest and tallest wooden structure.
