introduce

Guanyin Hall was founded in the tenth year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (AD 1582), and has a history of more than 430 years. It is a well-preserved temple in Changzhi City. The exquisitely designed, exquisitely crafted and exquisitely shaped painted and suspended sculptures in the main hall of the courtyard have extremely high artistic value and historical value of cultural relics.

The Guanyin Hall faces east to west, and there are two existing courtyards. On the central axis, there are Shanmen, Xiangting, and Guanyin Hall in sequence. The bell and drum towers are located on both sides of the mountain gate, and the left and right side halls face each other. An ancient juniper in the courtyard has a history of thousands of years, tall and straight, lush and lush.

What you see when you enter the gate is not a temple, but a small mound. After crossing the arch bridge on the west and entering the middle gate, there is an open space, which has a sense of twists and turns, ethereal and deep. Tianwang Hall is the front hall of Guanyin Hall. There are bell and drum towers on both sides. Climbing up the steps, you can have a panoramic view of the surrounding fields from the tower. The Hall of Heavenly Kings is the side hall, and the back hall is the Guanyin Hall, also known as the Dashi Hall.

The Guanyin Hall is three rooms wide and two rooms deep, with a single eaves hanging from the top of the mountain. Above the lintel hangs a plaque engraved with three gilt characters of "Guanyin Hall". It was inscribed by Gao Qin, Minister of the Ministry of War in the 11th year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (AD 1583), and it has been preserved to this day, which is really valuable. The walls on the three sides of the hall, the beams on the roof, and the tops of the doors and windows are all painted clay sculptures and hanging sculptures painted in gold. In the small three halls, there are about 500 statues, painted and suspended, blending Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.

Guanyin Hall, also known as Puji Temple, is the one with the largest scale, long history, vast land area and majestic architecture among the three Buddhist temples in Macau. The Guanyin Hall was built in the late Ming Dynasty, about 360 years ago. The temple is majestic, with three entrances and several horizontal connections.

Changzhi Guanyin Hall is located in Liangjiazhuang, 5 kilometers northwest of Changzhi, Shanxi Province. It was built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, with a small scale and an exquisite layout. Sitting east to west, two courtyards, there are Shanmen (theater building), Tianwang Hall, Xiangting Pavilion, Guanyin Hall, Bell and Drum Tower, and north and south side halls. The ancient cypresses in the temple tower into the sky. The most precious are the more than 500 colored sculptures collected in the hall. The large ones are about two meters high and the small ones are only a few centimeters. No matter how big or small, they are all beautiful and magnificent, which surprises the viewers. During the Cultural Revolution, the local people used mud to paste the colored sculptures and preserved them. Although it has gone through more than 400 years, the colors are still bright, which is amazing! I secretly took two photos of painted sculptures with my mobile phone in the temple, and accidentally deleted them when I came back. The following one was sent to WeChat Moments, so the resolution is very low, and the original photo is very beautiful! Leave Changzhi City and head south all the way to the "City God of the World Capital" in Changzhi County. Tickets are 20 yuan/person. The temple is built on the top of the mountain. It covers a huge area and is magnificent. Coupled with the early sunshine after the rain, the photo effect is very good.
