China - Nanning

Nanning (simplified Chinese南宁traditional Chinese南寧ZhuangNamzningz; meaning 'South Tranquility') is the capital of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in southern China. It is known as the "Green City" because of its abundance of lush tropical foliageNanning is situated in a hilly basin with elevations between 70 and 500 m (230 and 1,640 ft) above sea-level. Qingxiu Mountain dominates the southern part of town.

The Hanging Temple 
Located at the foot of Hengshan Mountain in Shanxi Province. It perched precariously on a near-vertical cliff surface of the Golden Dragon Gorge, Hanging Temple (or the Temple in Midair) has been ranked as the first wonder of Hengshan Mountain.
The temple was first built in the Northern Wei Dynasty (about 471-523) over 1,400 years ago, and later renovated in the Tang, Jin, Ming and Qing Dynasties. What can be seen now are the remains of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Facing east, it looks like a unique and exquisite jade carving hung on a huge screen.
