    Wangu Temple, which went to the afternoon of March 2, 2024, was catching up with the construction of part of the fence in the temple. The door did not inform the construction of part of the fence in the temple. After entering, two potion-like cave-like caves can be worshipped, and there is a big sleeping fairy. The overall parking lot is sand and stone, no charge, passing partners can go and see it

    As an ancient building that can be seen at first sight after getting off the highway in Yongji, the original ecological taste is not fully commercialized! As one of the few towers in China that allow towers to climb, the ancient towers are well preserved!

    Zhongtiao Mountain, about ten kilometers away from Yongji City, was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty. The corners of the multi-pagoda are full of wind bells, and the wind bells ring, which is quite pleasant. You can follow the spiral brick ladder to the eighth floor of the pagoda and climb high.

    Known as the "Zhongtiao First Chan Forest", Wangu Temple is located in the foothills of Zhongtiao Mountain in Yongji City, Shanxi Province. The temple was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty. The building is magnificent and strange. It is a famous Buddhist holy place and has a history of 1500 years. After visiting this tour, the Tang poet Geng Ting left the famous poem "Yun Kai Qiancun Jing in the middle of the night, Moon Shangzhong Peak Wan Xuming". The "Duobao Buddha Pagoda" in Wangu Temple was built in Zhengguang, Northern Wei in 522 years. It is a landmark building of Wangu Temple and the earliest Buddha Pagoda in China. The tower is 89 years earlier than the four-door tower of Jinan Shentong Temple in Shandong Province and 130 years earlier than the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in Xi'an. It is named because the tower is dedicated to four treasures of "Jade Buddha, Treasure Bottle, Shelizi, and Gold Version of Buddha". For thousands of years, the Doba Buddha Tower is known worldwide for its magnificent architecture and unique style, known as the "Chita". Ming Jiajing 34 (1556) Zhangzhou magnitude 8 earthquake, folk houses and temples have been destroyed, only the Doba Buddha Tower is left alone, only the tower has tilted. The existing stone forehead above the tower gate is inscribed after the 14th Ming Wanli (1586) restoration. The tower of the Dorapo Buddha is an octagonal cone with 13 floors. Visitors can climb up the spiral steps to nine floors, each with different views in the distance. It is worth mentioning that the tower wall is actually made of square bricks indented into stacked blocks, extremely strong, in the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, the tower was hit by Japanese shells several times, still safe. Most amazingly, a cypress tree and a pomegranate tree were planted in the southeast of the tower, where the jade Buddha was worshipped. It is said that the seeds were carried by birds thousands of years ago, and the seeds germinated after the rain, forming this rare spectacle. There are several statues of cranes under the pagoda. As long as you stand in front of the statue or clap your palms, you will understand the sound of cranes in different places. Tourists passing by here will not help but clap your palms and listen to the cries of cranes, adding infinite fun to the temple. The "crane" cries also attracted great interest from experts in the acoustic field of China, and the initial judgment was due to echo. The infinity hall behind the Dobao Buddha Tower, built by the monk Miaofeng monks in the Ming Wanli years, the top of the hall is a scorpion-shaped shape, not only breathable and light, when the pilgrim worships Buddha incense, cigarettes will rise along the patio to escape, keep the hall clean, known as one of the "three musts" of Wangu Temple.
