I was looking forward to an attraction. Those people were prepared. We went shopping for about two hours. There was no parking space nearby. We parked far away and parked in the residential area for free parking.
After 40 minutes of shopping, the main thing is to ask God to worship Buddha. Many people come to burn incense. I heard that only on the first day of the New Year, there is a saying that there is a head incense. In addition to Buddhism, it is Taoism in the east of the temple. It is very quiet and worth seeing.
Nanyue Temple (Nanyue Temple) is located at the foot of Hengshan Mountain, Nanyue District, Hengyang City, Hunan Province, under the Nanxun Chidi Peak of Zhu Mingfeng. It is a temple of the Holy Emperor of Nanyue, built in the Sui Dynasty, and is one of the largest and most complete ancient palace-style buildings in southern China, known as the "Southern Forbidden City". After six fires and sixteen renovations and expansions in Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing, it was rebuilt and formed a scale of 98,500 square meters in Qing Guangxu in eight years (1882). It is the main temple of the god of Nanyue. The emperors represented the main temple of the country's sacrifice to the mountain and Sichuan community. It is also called the temple of Dengfeng Zhongyue Temple and Tai'an Temple. The red walls and towering corner buildings are all around the temple. The main buildings are the main entrance, Kuixing Pavilion, the three main cave gates of the city gate, the imperial stele pavilion, Jiayingmen, the imperial book building, the main hall, the bedroom palace, and the north gate. It is also a temple where the three religions of Confucianism and Buddhism coexist. Buildings such as the eight-view of Taoism on the east side, the eight-view of Buddhism on the west side and the middle imperial book building represent the nature of the unity of the three religions. "The eight-view of Taoism on the east side" means: Lao Yi Deguan, Xin Yi Deguan, Lao Sanyuan Palace, New Sanyuan Palace, Wanshou Palace, Qinghe Palace, Renshou Pavilion, Yuxu Pavilion. The earliest Taoist activity was in the East Han Dynasty. Liu Xian's "Repair Nanyue Temple" in the Ming Dynasty states: "Yueju Society, south patrol to Nanyue Rui Li, the courtesy of speech is like Yue. Yue received the beginning of Zen Ruo Emperor. The top of Zhan Mountain can be pushed. Zhou system: six years of kings patrol the princes, facing Fangyue. At that time, Yue had Mingtang, for the place of the emperor's relatives, Li Telongxu. Li Han and Tang, extremely sloppy." The Mingtang here should be the predecessor of Nanyue Temple. Nanyue Temple was originally on Zhurong Peak, and in order to facilitate the family sacrifice and folk pilgrimage, the sloppy generation moved to the foot of the mountain. In the 13th year of Kaiyuan (725), Tang Xuanzong's sloppy built Nanyue Zhenjunxuan; Tianbao five years (746), Tang Xuanzong Feng Nanyue Zhenjun was the king of the king, so the temple system was increased according to the scale of the palace; Zhenyuan period (785~805), began to be called Nanyue Temple. Qingguangxu eight years (1882), Nanyue Temple was ordered to be rebuilt by Pingjiang Li Yuandu, and the construction and re-renovation of the line, the imperial stele pavilion, the imperial book building, the zhusheng hall, and the jurisdiction of the shrine, so that the Nanyue Temple is quite large and has been carried out to this day.
