The Yungang Grottoes, famous for their majestic Buddhist cave art, have been around since the 5th century. But these days, it’s not just the ancient carvings attracting visitors; it’s this fluffy little resident who’s turning heads and making waves on social media! 🌐✨
Travelers from across Asia are sharing their squirrel sightings online, sparking a surge in visits. “I came for the history, but stayed for the squirrel!” joked one tourist from Bangkok. Can you blame them? This tiny ambassador is bringing a whole new vibe to the centuries-old site. 😄
