May all the good things in the world come to Yonghe Palace as promised. May Buddha Youping walk out of Wanfu Pavilion safely. In the eastern chamber is the Buddha Tower. There is a statue of Sakyamuni Buddha with a bronze fetus named "Jundan Buddha". Behind the Buddha there is an enclosure-like backlight, which is carefully carved from precious golden Nanmu. It is known as one of the "three unique" of Yonghe Palace because of its exquisite and exquisite skills. The niche goes directly from the ground to the roof of the building. It stands high and low in two rooms with three floors inside and outside. At sunset, the Buddha stands in solemn silence, and the brass mirror behind the head is embedded in the enclosure-like backlight. This backlight centers on the brass mirror and spreads around it, forming a circle along the enclosure, reflecting with the lantern and illuminating the Buddhist Hall. The niche is supported by two golden dragon pillars with golden skin on the beams. There are 99 dragons carved around it. Some of them hold their heads high and explore their claws. Some of them stand upright and scream out. The Buddha statue in the niche is made of imitation wood and copper. The water-print clothes of Buddha statues are naturally smooth. It is said that the disciples of Sakyamuni Buddha, in order to keep the image of Buddha in the world forever but dare not look directly, had to ask the painter to draw the image of Buddha according to the shadow in the water, so the image of Buddha was drawn together with the water-print. The statues of later generations can only be based on this painting, "according to Buddha" hence the name.

    "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.
