No wonder it's called the "First Temple in Kanto."

Fengguo Temple, a national cultural heritage site in Jinzhou, has been waiting for you for 1,004 years. Built in the 9th year of the Liao Kaitai period (1020 AD), it is located in Yixian County, Jinzhou, Liaoning Province. Together with Huayan Temple in Datong, Shanxi, and Dule Temple in Jizhou, Tianjin, it is known as one of the three major Liao Dynasty temples. The temple has three wonders: Its Mahavira Hall is an original Liao Dynasty structure with a single-eave hipped roof and a building area of over 1,800 square meters. The Mahavira Hall houses seven Liao Dynasty Buddhas, all masterpieces of Liao Dynasty sculpture! Majestic and magnificent. The beams and purlins retain unique Liao Dynasty architectural paintings, totaling over 4,000 square meters, adding a touch of mystery and solemnity to the ancient temple! It is a royal temple with archaeological, painting, and sculpture cultural value; a rare gem of northern ancient architecture worth a second visit!
