Photos of Taifo Hall

The Thai Buddha Hall is located at the foothills opposite Huiru Park on Dongshan Road. The temple in Thailand has the reputation of the Thai Art Museum. This building, built in the famous city of Chaozhou, imitating the Thai Marble Temple, is very Thai. The horn means the dragon and the phoenix are auspicious. The decoration of the gables and the top shapes of the doors and windows concentrate the ancient Thai plastic arts, fully reflecting the majestic and exquisite exoticism. For Chaozhou people, you can appreciate the exotic style without going abroad; for the Chaozhou people living in Thailand, it is even more interesting. The center of the hall is dedicated to the Thai-style Sakyamuni Buddha, called Qingla Buddha. This 3-meter-high, 1.5-ton bronze Buddha statue is covered with gold foil and is called the Golden Buddha. The walls are surrounded by pictures "The Story of Buddha", which mainly tells about the birth of Sakyamuni Buddha, the process of attaining Buddhahood and Nirvana. There is the Erawan Buddha on the east side. In Thailand, the Erawan Buddha is a god, not a Buddha. It is Brahma, one of the three gods of ancient Brahmanism, which means 'Big Brahma', and Thai Chinese are used to calling it "Erawan Buddha". "Big Brahma" It means the creator of the five things in the world. He originally had five heads. It is said that one of them was destroyed by Shiva. The remaining four heads were facing the four directions. The four hands were holding the Vedas, lotus, spoon, rosary or bowl. When Buddha is worshipped, incense is offered in all directions from east, west, north, south, and south, and worship is performed clockwise. "Wangjiang Tower", "Wangzhou Pavilion" and "Buddhist Pagoda", etc., one bell and one drum are hung on the east and west hills.
