Dali Confucious Temple

文庙，是大理古城内一座比较大规模的寺庙建筑，在中国的古城内，一般都设有文庙，或大或少，供奉万世师表孔子孔圣人，大理古城也不例外，采用的制式也是传统文庙的结构，漫步其中感受浓浓的书卷气息，与外面热闹的商业气氛形成比较大的反差，非常适合进来逛逛，而且是免费开放的。

大理文庙由外到内由大门、照壁、棂星门、大成殿等组成，属明清大理殿堂式建筑风格，具有大理白族建筑艺术的特点，体现了西南边疆文化与中原文化既一脉相传、又相互揉合

作为王都，汉文化的兴盛自然带来儒家文化的推崇，在大理就曾有16座祭祀孔子的文庙，这些文庙当中当属大理古城内的大理文庙规模最大，层次最高，历史也最为悠久。

The original pattern of Dali Confucian Temple is relatively large. This location of the city library is the Dacheng Hall of the Confucian Temple. The Tianzitai in front of the Dacheng Temple is basically this location. The marble slab of the Tianzitai was three or four times larger than the slate.
