This beautiful temple, with its exquisite stone carvings depicting religious figures and flowers on the door, was built on the side of cliff, so that you can enter a cave behind the main hall of the temple. Inside the cave are several small niches where you can practice meditation. Legend has it that the cave was built during the 13th century for the locals to hide from the invading Mongols.
