The travel guide to Wangu Temple is here, go check it out with your family

Wangu Temple, founded during the Yuan and Wei dynasties, is originally named 'Yao Zai Temple' according to the 'Yongji County Chronicles'. After renovations during the Sui dynasty, it was renamed Wangu Temple, symbolizing 'eternal solidity'. The Tang dynasty poet Geng Hui once left the verse 'Clouds part in the middle of the night, a thousand villages in silence; the moon rises over the central peak, illuminating a myriad of ravines'. The poet Liu Shiqi also wrote the beautiful lines 'A green shade forms over a bamboo path, the wind chimes on the pagoda sound like music from beyond the heavens'. There are many Buddhist pagodas in Wangu Temple, among which the earliest, the Multi-Treasure Buddhist Pagoda, was built in 522 AD and is one of the earliest Buddhist pagodas in Chinese tower architecture. There is also the 'Beamless Hall' built against the cliff from east to west on the east side of the ancient pagoda. Designed by the architectural master and Zen master Miaofeng, it takes a different approach by using bricks for construction, with the top shaped like a dome caisson. The most eye-catching feature is the three huge hemispherical domed ceilings on the second floor of the Wuliang Hall, which are cleverly decorated with imitation bracket sets made of bricks on the inner surface, setting a precedent for the use of brick caisson bracket set decorations in religious buildings. The application of this elongated hemispherical dome load-bearing roof technique in religious buildings is a good continuation of China's traditional brick arch technology, creating a magnificent bracket set decorated dome caisson ceiling, elevating bricklaying to an ultimate state, and its preservation to this day is astonishing. Tips: The entrance is free, and compared to other popular temples, this place is more serene and the historical relics are well-preserved. It is very worthwhile to spend half a day to a full day here for a detailed visit. The cats raised by the monks in the temple are also very quiet and friendly, very adorable. √ The opening hours in summer are from 6:30 am to 7:00 pm; in winter, the opening hours are from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm
