Yonghe Temple Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Yonghe Temple was once the residence of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, Emperor Yongzheng was the prince and had not yet stepped up to the throne. It is also the place where Emperor Qianlong, the son of Emperor Yongzheng, was born. Nowadays, the temple is a well-known monastery of Tibetan Buddhism in Beijing. The incense often burns brightly. There are also many precious cultural relics in Lama Temple, such as the 500 Arhat Mountain carved out of sandalwood, the giant Buddha niche carved out of silkwood, and the 18-meter-high Buddha carved out of white sandalwood.

Find the Peace in Yonghe Temple#urbanexplorer #tripblazers #beijing Yonghe Temple (or Lama temple in English) is a beautiful moment for peace in the middle of the bustling Beijing city. Whilst it can get crowded with people buying bracelets to be blessed by the monks, if you go further into the complex, there are spaces which are very quiet and good for reflection. One of the highlights of our trip was seeing the huge wooden statue of Buddha in one of the halls which is an impressive sight.HereComesTheSun45

Yong He Gong aka 雍和宫 which is located in the capital of People's Republic of China Beijing and which is considered one of the best preserved Lama or Lamaism Buddhism temples outside if Tibet. Without any exaggerations, this temple is a unique germ in a Beijing cultural heritage necklace. Yong He Temple possesses very rare artifacts which could not be found anywhere else and therefore representing the difference between lamaism and other studied and giving the picture of Lama doctrine. The architectural style was found topical for Lama Temple planning in Tibet. At the same time the temple is commemorating the memory of Qing Dynasty emperor for which glory sake it was established. For instance, The Iron Hall of Qing Dynasty is kept very well in this temple (taking photos are prohibited with both reasons, religious and aim to protect it from light). Another interesting place is Lama sit or Lama throne which is put in big sala of small museum expositions of iron made accessories and artifacts related to Tibetan Buddhism. The hand made carpet with map of Lhasa is very old artifact counted more than 200 years, came from Tibet and well kept here. Numerous Buddha statures from different materials represent Buddha way and Carma circle, these statures are all very important historical artifacts and could be found only in this temple. The huge and tallest Buddha stature was introduced in previous post. Well, to mention all important things I met in this temple will take a long list for writing. Please, come here and discover all of those things by yourself. Incredible place. It is easy to be excessesd by subway, Dong Cheng District, the name of the station is the same Yong He Temple 雍和宫。 Have a nice trip! #culturalattractions#museumquest#historiccultureMaxS4

Hi, everyone! Today I would like to introduce one of the most impressive Buddha stature I saw during my trip in Beijing. At first, we are in Yong He Gong Lamaist monastery in the heart of Beijing City, Dongcheng district. Yong He Gong has a lot of artifacts but this one is really impressive, just mind shocking! Very tall solid Buddha stature created from bronze! It has no parts, it was moulded as it is during the Qing dynasty for the sake of those days emperor glory and popularization of Buddhism as the marketing guys could say now. Immense Buddha is dressed in very clean and beautiful clothes looks like watching you from a high altitude with a little smile. Yes, the eyes were constructed in this way to give the visitors above described feeling. #culturalattractions#bestislandtraveltowns#museumquest#historiccultureMaxS5

The Royal DescentAs the history says Buddhism came from India, as so the Buddha too. The very first Buddha who got enlightened is a king who got tired 😴 of war and couldn’t live with that loss of lives anymore. And so, he gave up on earthly attachments to attain the monk 🍀 . Here located in Dongcheng district is the Lama temple. It is quite around the corner from the famous Wangfujing street. This temple is also called locally as Yonghe temple, and once it was a royal residence. Over the time, people started to come to pray 🙏 and the Buddhism followed here is the yellow hat 🤠 . You can see different sections of temple starting from the entrance, with some amazing architectures and statues of ancient beliefs. Also they have a magnificient statue of Maitreya, that will make you totally 💯 in love with Buddhism. Check this must visit place in Beijing, folks !! #urbanexplorer #yonghemiao #couplestrip#historicculture#culturalattractionAaru 裴儒5

The palace of peace and harmonyThe Yonghe Temple, also known as Lamas Temple, is a Tibetan Buddhist temple and monastery in downtown Beijing. If you have a few hours to spare in Beijing, take a didi to the temple. Like entering an ancient bubble inside the busy city, transporting you from Beijing to Tibet in a few steps. From the smell of incense, gorgeous artwork in every structure, and peaceful ambience, you will feel in close connection with your soul. The guardian lion statue in the entrance will lead your way in. Take your time to admire the different architectural designs and artwork. You might see some similarities between the buildings’ paint designs in the temple and those ones in Forbidden City.

After the civil war, remained closed for 32 year til is reopened in 1981. Therefore, if you are fan of the art, ancient architecture, history or just want to visit a Tibetan monastery, this is the perfect spot for you. 📍 28, Yonghegong Street No., Dongcheng district, Beijing #temple #lamas #yonghe #lamastemple #beijing #yonghetemple #beijingtravel #beijingsuburbs #artwork #architecture #urbanexplorer #architecturalphotos #maydaytrip #happylaborday #scenicspotphotoguide#ancienttomb#oldarchitecturecriskotsu6

Beijing Yonghe Temple | The premier temple of the Qing Dynasty court, from which two emperors emerged.After a hiatus of seven years, I find myself back in the imperial city of Beijing, where the rain continues to fall as it always has. The northern rain, which I last experienced at the Forbidden City seven years ago, now pours down on the Yonghe Temple. From the royal residence of Emperor Yongzheng to the highest-ranking Buddhist temple in the late Qing Dynasty, the Yonghe Temple, which shares the same grandeur as the Forbidden City, has now become a popular attraction on social media. 【History】 In the 33rd year of Emperor Kangxi's reign (1694), he built a mansion here and bestowed it upon his fourth son, Yin Zhen, which later became the residence of Prince Yong. In the ninth year of Emperor Qianlong's reign (1744), the Yonghe Temple was converted into a Lama Temple, becoming the center of the Qing government's control over Tibetan Buddhism nationwide. Because it was the birthplace of Emperors Yongzheng and Qianlong, it is known as the "Dragon's Hidden Land of Blessing." 【Layout】 The Yonghe Temple mainly consists of three exquisite archways and five grand halls. It covers an area of 66,400 square meters, with over a thousand halls and rooms. The front part includes seven buildings: Zhaotai Gate, Bell Tower, Drum Tower, Yonghe Gate, Yonghe Palace, Scripture Hall, and Tantric Hall. The halls in the back rise in succession, symbolizing the solemn auspiciousness of the Buddha's world. 【Highlights】 ⭐Yonghe Palace: The palace has a yellow glazed tile roof with a hip and gable top. Inside, there are three bronze gilded Buddha statues and eighteen Arhat statues covered in gold leaf. ⭐Falun Hall: The "one large, four small" five Tibetan-style skylights on the roof of the hall symbolize Mount Sumeru surrounded by the four continents. ⭐Wanfu Pavilion: Standing 25 meters tall, it is the tallest building in the Yonghe Temple complex. Inside, there is a 26-meter-tall wooden statue of Maitreya Buddha, carved from a single piece of sandalwood. ⭐Three Woodcarving Wonders: The Five Hundred Arhats Mountain, the Sandalwood Buddha (Maitreya Buddha in the Wanfu Pavilion), and the Nanmu Buddha Shrine. PS: The popular "Yonghe Temple Incense Ash Glazed Bead Bracelet" (around 380 yuan) can be purchased at the "Second Dharma Logistics Outlet". After purchase, you can have it blessed in the consecration room. 🚘Address: No. 12 Yonghegong Street, Dongcheng District, Beijing 💵Ticket: 20 yuan 📣Nearby: The Imperial College, Confucius Temple, Bailin Temple, etc.Andreabbjmk
The green peaches of Yonghe Palace are in bloom, let's take a look from a different angleAfter watching a recommended video online, I was enticed to take a snapshot of the Yonghe Palace subway station and the green peach blossoms together on the bus. I rushed to take photos excitedly, but the temperature rose too quickly, and the blooming season is nearly over. Friends who want to go should hurry up. 🚇 Exit C of Yonghe Palace Subway Station Here's the route: 1⃣️ God's view p1-3: You need to take a double-decker bus. If it's just for enjoying the flowers: the section from Andingmen West to Yonghe Bridge East is enough. You can choose either bus 200 inner loop or 142, both should work. ps: The bus drives too fast, didn't have enough time to snap a few pictures, I feel like recording a video might be better 😂 2⃣️ Panoramic view p4-6: Exit C of Yonghe Palace Subway Station, go to the parking lot across the street, it's safe and good for taking pictures. 3⃣️ Close-up view p7-9: Just exit from C, and take pictures under the green peach trees. Which view do you guys like best?AUBREY BOWEN

"Jing Zhuangyuan" Li explained very carefully, which greatly exceeded my expectations. Teacher Li's patient and meticulous explanation made me and my friends gain a lot, and really understood the greatness of the Lama Temple. Recommend Mr. Li again! ! !
Today, I was very fortunate to follow the teacher to swim to the Lama Temple. The teacher explained very meticulously and vividly. I feel that this trip is very worthwhile. I have learned a lot of historical knowledge that I can't get to school in textbooks. I hope that next time I can bring my children to visit the Lama Temple again with the teacher.
The tour guide is very powerful and worthwhile. The whole 2-hour explanation, vividly explained the historical religion and other content, greatly popularized some knowledge that everyone can't find on the Internet!
The Lama Palace is located in the northeast corner of Beijing, Qing Kangxi 33 (1694), where Kangxi Emperor built the mansion and gave four sons, later Prince of the Prince. Three years (1725), the palace was changed to the palace, called the Lama Palace, 13 years (1735), the Lama Emperor died, once parked the Lingyu, so the main palace of the Lama Palace original green glazed tiles changed to yellow glazed tiles. The Lama Palace, because the Qianlong Emperor was born here, the Lama Palace has two emperors, become "long Qianfudi", so the temple is yellow tile red wall, the same specifications as the Forbidden City Palace. In the nine years of Qianlong (1744), the Lama Temple was changed to the Lama Temple, and the Prime Minister's Affairs was appointed to manage his affairs and became the center of the Qing government's control of Tibetan Buddhist affairs. The Lama Temple was the highest-standard Buddhist monastery in the country in the middle and late Qing Dynasty.
Jing Zhuangyuan Li's explanation of the Lama Temple is very detailed, so that these tourists have a new understanding of the development of the Lama Temple's history, and a new understanding of Tibetan Buddhism. It is a very impressive history class. I highly recommend Mr. Li's explanation.
"Jing Zhuangyuan" teacher for the history of the Summer Palace is very detailed professional, the other two friends who participated in other platforms were also invited to listen to the lecture for free, and the harvest was quite rich. Unfortunately, because we didn't have enough time to catch the plane that day, we left the group early, and I hope that we can have the opportunity to participate in the teacher's group next time.
