法輪寺

20230404 All day: 1. "Falun Temple" is located in the scenic spot "Lushan" of 5A. Lushan is a famous Taoist mountain with a long history. It is known as the "first mountain of Chinese Taoism". The natural scenery is beautiful and steep. It has the majestic mountain in the north and the handsome mountain in the south. The highest peak altitude is 2123.5 meters. On the mountains of Danxia landform, the ancient temples of the famous temple stand proudly like the Temple of Heavenly Palace. They are the birthplace of one of the five major martial arts schools in China. Historically, they left Qin Shihuang, Han Wudi, Sima Qian, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Lin Zexu, Yuan Tong, Zhao Shichun, Yu Youren and other celebrities footprints. ① Address: Yu Town, Yu District, Pingliang City, Gansu Province. ② Transportation: Direct bus (13th to East Gate; 21st to South Gate, but long walk; scenic spot direct train from "Yu Ancient Town" goes directly to the mountainside "Zhongtai" and the top of the mountain), driving is very good. ③ peak season: none. See the green mountains in spring and summer; see the red leaves in autumn; see the snow in winter. ④ Time: 1 day. 2. There are many large-scale halls of Falun Temple, which were built in the Tang Dynasty and was originally named "Shuhua Temple", destroyed in the Cultural Revolution and rebuilt in 1992. The "Baoguangming Jie Building" and pagodas in the park highlight the majesty of the temple.

I didn't expect there to be a large-scale Buddhist monastery on the famous mountain of Taoism, which is located in the scenic area of Taitai Emperor City in Lushan. Most of the buildings have been newly built in recent years, leaving only a pagoda of the Song Dynasty.

This is a free and open Buddhist monastery, located in the suburbs of Pingliang City, the middle of the mountain, the scale is relatively large, the monastery was built in the Tang Dynasty, has a history of more than 1,200 years, and the existing buildings are mostly modern rebuilt.

Falun Temple is located in Pingliang's famous Lushan Scenic Area. It was built in the Tang Dynasty. It has a long history. The existing buildings are mostly rebuilt in modern times. There is a Ming Dynasty pagoda in the temple, which is a landmark local landscape.
