The Wanxiang Temple of Zhenguo Temple outside the ancient city of Pingyao was built in the 7th year of the Northern Han Dynasty in the Five Dynasties and Ten States. It has a history of more than 1,000 years and is one of the oldest existing wooden structures in China. Nanchan Temple and Foguang Temple, which are later than Wutai Mountain in Shanxi, are ranked third. As a short period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms between the late Tang and the Song Dynasties, this Buddhist temple still retains a strong Tang Dynasty style. The single mountain is far-reaching and beautifully shaped, giving a majestic and imposing artistic beauty. Known as the "Millennium Treasure." It is commendable that the Wanfo Hall still retains the perfect five-generation color plastic sculptures. These colorful sculptures are original works of the Northern Han Dynasty Tianhui during the establishment of the temple. It is the only remaining five generations of colorful plastic products in addition to Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes. "Rare treasures", to be precious.
