Listed as part of the ancient Silk Road for the World Heritage candidate, the grottoes will be reviewed by experts from UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization after renovation of a giant Buddha statue dating back more than 1,000 years to the Tang Dynasty was completed lately. Bingling Temple Grottoes, filled with Buddhist statues, stupas and murals, were a work in progress between the 4th and 10th centuries.[Photo/Xinhua]
