Qingliansi Temple, the only wooden bone mud fetus corner god in China.

🎯 Shanxi, the hometown of ancient buildings, after playing "Black Myth: Wukong", the yearning for Shanxi ancient buildings is even stronger. Finally, I came to the fascinating Qingliansi Temple. This is also one of the locations of "Black Myth Wukong"💫 🕰️ Qingliansi Temple was first built in the Tianbao period of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and its original name was "Xieshi Temple". At that time, Buddhism had spread in the north, and Qingliansi Temple became an important religious place. There is also an inscription from the first year of Wuding in the Eastern Wei Dynasty on the cliff, which is enough to prove its long history.😎 ✨ During the Tang Dynasty, Qingliansi Temple ushered in a glorious period. In the second year of Tang Taihe, the new Qingliansi Temple was established; In the eighth year of Xiantong, the ancient Qingliansi Temple was renovated and renamed. At this time, Buddhism reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty, and Qingliansi Temple was able to expand. In the third year of Taiping Xingguo in the Northern Song Dynasty, the upper courtyard was named "Fuyan Zen Temple", and the lower courtyard was still the ancient Qingliansi Temple, and the two temples were separated from then on.👏 🖼️ The ancient Qingliansi Temple now has a main hall, a south hall and a Ming Dynasty pagoda, as well as the tomb pagoda of Master Huifeng in the Tang Dynasty. The six colored sculptures on the square Buddha altar in the main hall, Sakyamuni, Anan, Jia Ye, Manjusri and the offering person, still have the Tang style. The twelve colored sculptures in the south hall are realistic in style and vivid. The Tang stele "Xieshi Temple Dazhuiyuan Master's Relics" has a picture of the Buddha Hall on the top of the stele, which is a rare physical material in the history of ancient Chinese architecture.💎 🛕 The new Qingliansi Temple includes the Hall of Heavenly Kings, the Sutra Depository, the Sakyamuni Hall, the Great Hall of the Great Heroes, the Guanyin Pavilion and the Dizang Pavilion. The architectural style of the second floor of the Sutra Depository is unique, different from the Song, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Sakyamuni Hall, Guanyin Pavilion and Dizang Pavilion were built during the Northern Song Dynasty. Although the latter two and the first floor of the Sutra Depository were renovated during the Qing Dynasty, they are still simple and solemn.👍 💎 It is worth mentioning that the unique corner god of Qingliansi Temple. Only Shanxi in the country has it. The corner god of Qingliansi Temple was made by the "wood bone mud fetus" process 1,000 years ago and has guarded the Sutra Depository for more than 1,000 years. They have different shapes, some are cute and cute, with their mouths open as if they are telling old stories; some are serious and awe-inspiring, showing great power; some are calm and calm, revealing a kind of tranquility and calmness. The rich imagination of ancient craftsmen is evident in these corner gods.🎊 🎈 Now it is the golden autumn season, Qingliansi Temple is full of incense, and you can pray for peace for your family in Qingliansi Temple.
