What travelers say:

20231224 afternoon: 1. Yunmen Temple is a thousand-year-old temple in Xiangxiang City. It was built in the second year of the Northern Song Dynasty (1050), covering an area of 2800 ㎡. It consists of three main buildings of the Temple of Heavenly Kings, the Grand Xiong Palace, the Qianshou Guanyin Pavilion on the central axis and many small temples on both sides. The incense is strong. Guanyin's 4th birthday is every year. That is, the temple is gathered by many believers in February 19, June 19, September 19 and November 19 of the lunar calendar. ① Address: southeast corner of the intersection of Sangmei Middle Road, Dongfeng Road, Xiangxiang City, Xiangtan City, Hunan Province. ② Transportation: direct bus, easy to stop by car. ③ peak season: no. ④ Time: 1 hour. ⑤ Ticket price: free. 2. The temple gate is a red gate of 3 holes, like a archway integrated with the fence. The marble floor of the Xiangyunteng roll outside the temple gate is beautiful and solemn. The small stone Buddha statue ornaments can be seen everywhere on the outside of the temple. I carefully counted more than 30 different forms. After entering the temple, there is a blessing wall next to the incense stove on the right hand side. The word "fu" is engraved with different forms. The small bronze faucet under the wall sprays water in the small pool. 3, the Temple of Heavenly Kings is generally the first temple of the Buddha Temple, the Lord Maitreya Buddha, the Vetuo Bodhisattva, the four major heavenly kings. 4, the grand majesty hall is the core building of the temple, the second floor eaves, the main saga, the Buddha, the two sides are the grand kaya, the Anan, the two sides of the hall are dedicated to the Han white jade 18 Luohan, is Qing Guangxu years by a pair of father and son stonesmiths with 18 pieces of whole jade carved, took 3 years, for the provincial level cultural relics. At present, I am encountering believers in practice, and the Sanskrit music haunts the temple, solemn and sacred. 5. The Qianshou Guanyin Pavilion is the main hall of the whole temple. The gilded Guanyin in the middle is like the original object when the Northern Song Dynasty Jian Temple was built. The mud and wood carving are mixed. It is 12 meters high. It is the tallest and second tallest in the country. (The tallest in the country is located in Longxing Temple, the scenic spot in Shijiazhuang City, just visited 2 months ago), Spectacular and gorgeous, Guanyin image on the throne is engraved with the ancient legend of the local "Guanyin Town Neilong" in Xiangxiang City, which makes Xiangxiang City's Guanyin faith add the "Guanyin Dragon Down Day" on November 19, the lunar calendar, which belongs to the local special case. The four words "Changchun in the South China Sea" in the temple are written by Zeng Guoqian, a famous general of the late Qing Dynasty and his brother Zeng Guoqian. The stone incense stove in front of the Guanyin Temple is protected by glass cover and should be cultural relics. 6. The west route from south to north is: ① Land Palace: It was built in Qingjiaqing four years (1799), and was built by Zhang Bo of Zhixian. The main land is the public. There are many ancient monuments in the temple. ② Maitreya Temple: The main Han Baiyu Amitabha, which was moved here when the Daxiong Palace was rebuilt. ③ Jushixuan: Exercise the residence of the Jushi in the temple. ④ Ninth Buddha Hall: Believers' changing clothes. ⑤ Prajna Temple: Free Library. ⑥ Gongdetang: The Lord's Buddha statue of Sakyamuni, with the cards of the super-dead spirits on both sides, every first day, 15th, Buddha's Bodhisattva birthday, the mage will be super-degree here, the regular chanting, worship, three-time Buddhist meditation are held here. ⑦ Thousand Buddha Hall: The main body sends Zi Guanyin, Shancai Boyzi, and Long Woman. ⑧ Fatang. 7. East Road from south to north is in turn: ① Dragon King Hall: It was built in 1799 and was built by Zhang Bo, Zhixian County... The number of words exceeds the limit, and it continues in the last picture.
