It uses the principle of mechanics, half-pluged flying beams as the basis, Qiao borrows the rock dark support, beams and columns up and down, corridors are connected to the left and right, twisting and twisting, and living in reality. From afar, the suspension temple seems to be supported by only a few columns.
