The easiest and most common way to get to Hunyuan is from Datong. There are regular buses going to Hunyuan County (1 hour, 15 RMB) and from there you should take an illegal taxi to Xuankong Si - The Hanging Monastery. The ride is about 10 RMB - you shouldn't pay more.

We then continued our way back to Datong as described above.
