Longxing Temple, Zhengding.

Longxing Temple was first built during the Sui Dynasty and has been renovated and expanded many times. It is one of the oldest, largest, and best-preserved temples in China. The temple has more than ten large and small halls, distributed on both sides of the north-south axis, with a clear hierarchy and obvious architectural style of the Song Dynasty. The Mani Hall was praised by Liang Sicheng as a solitary Song Dynasty building in the world's ancient architecture, with extremely high artistic value. The inverted Guanyin in the Mani Hall was called the Oriental Beauty by Mr. Lu Xun, with a graceful posture and dignified expression. In addition, the temple's prayer wheel is the earliest preserved prayer wheel in China, with extremely exquisite craftsmanship. The Thousand-Hand Guanyin is the tallest ancient bronze Buddha statue in the world, with a solemn shape and exquisite craftsmanship, which is breathtaking. The bronze cast Vairocana Buddha is also the most exquisite bronze cast Vairocana Buddha in ancient China, with extremely high artistic value. Longxing Temple is a national 4A-level tourist attraction and has an important position in the Buddhist and architectural circles.
