Check out the treasures of the Liao and Jin Art Museum in the temple.

1. The 4.5m high glazed gargoyle from the Jin and Ming dynasties, the largest in China 2. The base of the main hall from the Liao Dynasty, the building from the Yuan Dynasty, the Buddha statue from the Ming Dynasty, and the murals from the Qing Dynasty, a fusion of art and architecture from four dynasties 3. The Avatamsaka Pagoda, the second largest mortise and tenon structure wooden pagoda in China. The Avatamsaka Pagoda underground palace was made with 100 tons of pure copper 4. The high monk's sarira is the size of a grain of rice, the top grade is milky white, and it is placed in the Avatamsaka Pagoda underground palace. You can visit it, but you need to queue for 2 hours 5. The Buddha statue known as the Oriental Venus 6. The rainbow bridge behind the Buddha statue 7. The Vajracchedika Sutra Hall, the oldest building in the Avatamsaka Monastery, a Liao Dynasty building The Avatamsaka Monastery is really attractive for travel photography. The Tang Dynasty decorations are so beautiful. The simple and frugal environment and the dazzling decorations are a great contrast. I originally thought that the CNY 50 ticket at the door was not cheap, but I felt it was worth it before I finished following the tour guide~
