Field notes
The timeline spans prehistoric settlement through the present and includes a note that some early dates are approximate. Landmark entries mix architectural specifics with on-the-ground details: the Hanging Temple is described as having about 40 surviving halls, while the wooden pagoda entry notes that upper levels are closed to visitors. The page also credits its photographs and links to public heritage references.
