Its original name "Xuankong Pavilion玄空阁" has a profound meaning, "Xuan玄" is taken from the Taoist doctrine, "Kong空" is derived from the Buddhist doctrine.Then because of its building seems to be hanging above the cliff, and "Hanging悬" and "Xuan玄" are the same sound in Chinese. So the name was changed to "Hanging Temple悬空寺".
