Datong's free attraction 'Fahua Temple'

Although 'Fahua Temple' in Datong is a free attraction, you still need a reservation code to enter and visit. The most famous feature here is probably the white pagoda in the middle. It is a stupa-shaped pagoda, named because its body resembles an inverted bowl, also known as a Lama Pagoda, which is a Tibetan Buddhist pagoda. The Bodhisattvas enshrined in the hall here seem to be different from those in other temples, as they have beards, which is indeed rare. According to online introductions, this temple houses a copy of the Lotus Sutra. Anyway, I didn't find this treasure of the temple, but the photos taken inside the temple are quite beautiful. Don't say I lack ambition; in life, it's all about being at ease.
