The architecture of the Lama Palace is magnificent, with red walls and yellow tiles, and magnificent. The scarlet gate is solemn and solemn, and the copper rust on the door ring tells the story of the years. When you enter the palace gate, you will see a spacious courtyard with blue slabs on the ground, clean and simple. The cypresses on both sides of the courtyard are lush, as if loyal guardians guard this sacred land.
Visiting Yonghe Gong (Lama Temple) in Beijing was a deeply enriching experience, blending spirituality, history, and architectural beauty. As one of the most important Tibetan Buddhist temples outside Tibet, the Lama Temple offers a peaceful retreat from the bustling city, surrounded by ornate, traditional Chinese architecture.Upon entering the temple, we were struck by the vibrant colors and intricate details of the buildings. The beautifully crafted statues, prayer wheels, and incense-filled courtyards immediately created a serene atmosphere. The temple is home to numerous Buddha statues, but the highlight for us was the 18-meter tall Maitreya Buddha, carved from a single piece of sandalwood—a true marvel to behold.Each hall within the temple offers something unique, and we appreciated the opportunity to learn about Tibetan Buddhism through the well-preserved artifacts and peaceful surroundings. The temple attracts both locals and tourists, but it never felt overly crowded, allowing us time for quiet reflection.The Lama Temple is easily accessible via the Beijing subway, making it a convenient stop on any trip to the city. Whether you're interested in Chinese history, architecture, or spirituality, a visit to Yonghe Gong is a rewarding experience. It's a tranquil oasis in the heart of Beijing!
The guide of Jing Zhuangyuan, Yu teacher, explained for three hours in the whole process. There was no stop for a moment. The speech was very exciting. The content was dry. I was very proficient in Tibetan Buddhism. I hope I will have the opportunity to hear the teacher's explanation next time I come to Beijing!
The Lama Palace is usually very crowded and the incense is very strong. It is said that Beijing is the most accurate place for boys to seek careers and wealth. The location is in Dongcheng District. It's quite big inside, free incense can be provided
I came to the Lama Temple to pray for blessings. I was very lucky to follow Mr. Zhuang's group. The dry goods were full for nearly three hours. Although the Lama Temple occupies a small area, it is worth visiting. Mr. Zhuang's ins and outs of the Lama Temple is like a number of Zhen. I can hear that I have a lot of research on history and Buddhism. Especially the ritual and moral of the Lama Palace prayer, I heard absolutely harvest
The Lama Palace is located in the northeast corner of Beijing, Qing Kangxi 33 (1694), where Kangxi Emperor built the mansion and gave four sons, later Prince of the Prince. Three years (1725), the palace was changed to the palace, called the Lama Palace, 13 years (1735), the Lama Emperor died, once parked the Lingyu, so the main palace of the Lama Palace original green glazed tiles changed to yellow glazed tiles. The Lama Palace, because the Qianlong Emperor was born here, the Lama Palace has two emperors, become "long Qianfudi", so the temple is yellow tile red wall, the same specifications as the Forbidden City Palace. In the nine years of Qianlong (1744), the Lama Temple was changed to the Lama Temple, and the Prime Minister's Affairs was appointed to manage his affairs and became the center of the Qing government's control of Tibetan Buddhist affairs. The Lama Temple was the highest-standard Buddhist monastery in the country in the middle and late Qing Dynasty.
The explanation of Mr. Zhao, a bachelor of the Royal Teacher, made this trip to the Forbidden City particularly interesting. The second time I came to the Forbidden City, I listened to Mr. Zhao's many lively small stories, so that the history and monuments are vivid, and it is a worthwhile trip!
The teacher's explanation is very detailed, including the etiquette and precautions for the Buddha, and has a good understanding of the Lama Temple. I saw the world's first future Buddha, and marveled at how such a tall wood shaped such a magical Buddha statue. It was so amazing!
