Pingyao: Shuanglin Temple
Shuanglin Temple is situated 6 km away from Pingyao. It is included in the UNESCO World Heritage thanks to two thousand-odd colored clay statues of ancient deities. Local taxi drivers offer to take you to Shuanglin Temple for 20 yuan, for 10 yuan they are ready to wait, and for another 20 to drive you back to the city. I drove there by taxi and returned back on a scooter. Some sympathetic student gave me a lift to the town for 10 yuan.


The temple is especially popular with wealthy Chinese.
