Xifeng Temple is one of the earliest Buddhist temples in Gansu, with a history of nearly two thousand years. Gansu has made important contributions to the gestation and development of Chinese civilization in history. Gansu was once an important channel for the intersection of Chinese and Western cultures.

In the Erhai area of Yunnan, a state of Nanzhao was established in the Tang Dynasty, and was canonized by the Tang Dynasty, and was renamed as the Dali Kingdom in the Song Dynasty. Nanzhao-Dali vigorously promotes the Han culture, and there are many historical sites remaining to this day. The most famous is the three towers of Chongshou Temple in Dali. The three towers are located at the foot of Yingle Peak in Cangshan. The big tower in the middle, named Chihiro Pagoda, was built during the Nanzhao Quanfengyou period (823-859 AD). It is said that it was built under the guidance of the Tang Dynasty architect Gongtao and Huiyi. It is 69.13 meters high and has 16 floors. Each floor has a voucher-shaped niche on the front. There is a white marble statue in the niche. It is a square brick tower with a square eaves. The shape is similar to the Xi'an Small Wild Goose Pagoda and Songyue Temple Pagoda. Tang Dynasty style. The two small towers are 42.19 meters high and have 10 floors. They are octagonal solid brick towers. The tower body is coated with a layer of white mud and was built in the Dali period. Behind the pagoda, there was a large-scale Chongshou Temple, which was destroyed by fire in the late Qing Dynasty. Only three pagodas stood tall and became the oldest building in Yunnan.

This should be the ticket for Tianlong Babu Studios. Originally, the tour in Lijiang made me think that the Yunnan tour ticket is too high and too high. For example, in Lashihai in Lijiang, I walked through a muddy field and took a broken fishing boat for about 20 minutes. The charge was 130 yuan. Everyone on the boat shouted deceived. This is the first attraction I visited after I arrived in Dali. It feels good and worth the price.

I started to look at the three towers. Just take a picture outside. I thought that the 5A scenic spot would not be a vain name. Go in and take a look. It really is a worthwhile trip. The three towers are just the front view and the back Chongsheng Temple is the top priority of the entire scenic spot. The magnificence and momentum of the temple is shocking. By the way, there is also a plaque of the "Daxiong Palace" that 108 domestic and foreign monks have opened together. Listen The tour guide said that you only need to make a wish and you don’t need to make a wish. You must go to Chongsheng Temple to burn incense when you go to Dali.
