In the midst of such breathtaking beauty, surrounded by the magnificence of nature, those Buddhist monks must have surrendered their lives to the Bodhisattva, their master and god, spending their lives in quiet meditation and prayer, and making a virtue of simplicity--- and soon, becoming an integral part of their awe-inspiring environment.

It takes but a moment to enter these caves, to close your eyes and conjure up the aura of the past. Listen to the chanting monks. Watch the murals and sculptures come alive under the magic fingers of those gifted artists. Feel the touch of Nature and the brush of the past.

It took the faith of generations and efforts of centuries to create these caves. We owe it to these unknown artists to study their works with the reverence they deserve.
