The day I first arrived at the Dazhao Temple, it was snowing lightly, which was completely different from my revisit on a sunny day with a blue sky. Fortunately, during my short trip to Qingcheng, I had the opportunity to appreciate this famous ancient temple outside the Great Wall from close range and from multiple angles, and different psychological experiences lingered in my mind. Especially when I visited the Wuliang Temple of the Dazhao Temple again on a day when the sky was clear, listening to the crisp metallic sound of the bells hanging at the corners of the tower, and various colorful prayer flags fluttering with the wind outside the Great Wall, as the saying goes: sincerity is spiritual. When I prostrated myself in front of the huge Buddha statue, the wind outside the Great Wall blew away the gloom in my heart, cleansing and purifying my eyes and soul, and I felt an unprecedented relaxation and joy.

Dazhao Temple is the largest temple in Hohhot. Dazhao, called 'Yike Zhao' means 'big temple', where 'Zhao' is Tibetan for 'temple', is a Gelug sect of Tibetan Buddhism, built in 1580, mainly to promote the Yellow Religion, and the earliest temple built in Hohhot. The temple is famous for its silver Buddha, murals, and dragon carvings. Whether it's architecture, murals, or Buddha statues, they are all worth savoring. Outside Dazhao Temple, the old street is lined with shops, and the night view is very charming, attracting many travel photographers. In the cool autumn night, strolling in it has a unique charm.

The Dazhao Temple was presided over by Altan Khan, the leader of the Tumote tribe in the Ming Dynasty, in the seventh year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. It is a large Tibetan Buddhist temple and belongs to the Gelug sect (Yellow Sect). The word 'Zhao' in Dazhao Temple means temple in Tibetan, and its original Chinese name was 'Hongci Temple', which was later changed to 'Wuliang Temple'. Because there is a silver Buddha enshrined in the temple, that is, the statue of Sakyamuni enshrined in the Buddha Hall, made by Nepalese craftsmen, the whole body is cast from 30,000 taels of pure silver, so Dazhao Temple is also called 'Silver Buddha Temple'. The treasures of the Dazhao Temple are extremely rich, and the silver Buddha, dragon carvings, and murals have become the 'three unique features' of the Dazhao Temple, which are historical relics of the Ming Dynasty. As a tourist, I feel that the Dazhao Temple is a great place to worship Buddha. The halls are magnificent and gorgeous, the Buddha statues and Thangka murals are exquisite, the entire temple is not commercialized, and you can truly feel the charm of Tibetan Buddhism and cleanse your soul in the Sanskrit.
