Located in a natural Danxia rock cave, Ganlu Temple draws pilgrims and visitors to Taining County of Sanming, Fujian Province with its awe-inspiring architectural features. Built in 1146 during China's Song Dynasty (960-1279), the temple is still supported by a single wooden pillar up to today. The 80-meter-high cave it stands in resembles an inverted triangle measuring about 30 meters wide at the top and about 10 meters wide at the bottom. Ganlu, meaning "sweet dew," is named for a stalactite above it that drips spring water.
