The new Muru Temple, located on Beijing East Road, Chengguan, Lhasa, is based on the original appearance of the old Tibetan Temple. The architectural pattern of the temple is like a large courtyard house, retaining the original stone steps and carving columns. The former temple is no longer open, and the present temple is the former temple, hanging a huge Tangka, showing the extraordinary position of the Tibetan leader at the time.
Muru Temple is just across from Barkhor Street. It is free to enter. The main hall is under maintenance. There are many masters engraving the moving boards of Tibetan scriptures. The yard is like a courtyard house, with consistent color and fame, but full of life. There are also many Tibetans in the palace to go to the supply, and the oil overflows. The carving of oil is lifelike.
Muru Temple was built in the 7th century AD and has a history of more than 1,000 years, and its predecessor is Muru Ningba behind the Jokhang Temple. Muru Temple is not big, nor as well-known as the Jokhang Temple, salad Temple and other big temples, few foreign tourists go, but to truly experience the original Lhasa, this is also a place to go.
It has been several months since the last time I went to Muru Temple. During the peak season, I shuttled between Barkhor Mall and Jokhang Temple almost every day. This few hundred meters of Beijing Road has two final pure land in Lhasa, which is almost next to it. One is the former Jiri Hotel, the other is Muru Temple. When I pass by, I often go in for a while. Outside is the most noisy street in Lhasa - Beijing Road, but there are few people inside. The Jiri Hotel was completely demolished in the second half of this year, and the Muru Temple is also being remodeled. Inside the temple, except for the ruins or ruins. There are no vendors who have set up stalls here before, and no sun-bathers here. When I went today, it snowed. The temperature below zero, there was no sunlight. Fortunately, record it at this last moment. History needs to be inherited, history needs to be recorded. Before the demolition of the Jiri Hotel, I took some photos. Muru Temple has also changed, and the impression is only left in the photo. Development is good, but Lhasa is getting less and less of the taste it should have.
Xinmuru Temple, 15 Beijing Road, sits north and south. The north and south are 102 meters long, the east and west are 85 meters wide, the back is 97 meters wide, covering an area of 8,925 square meters. There are more than 300 houses. The front of the monastery is low and high, the front of the temple is the monk house, and the back is the main hall. The first half of the main hall is the Great Hall and the second half is the Buddha Hall. The hall is 9 wide and 7 deep. The Buddha Hall is 3 rooms, the middle Buddha Hall is nearly square, 11 meters long, 10 meters wide, and 110 square meters. The area of the Buddha Hall on both sides is small. The three sides of the monastery are monk houses, each three floors, the first floor is 3. 5 meters high, the second floor is 2. 4 meters high, and the third floor is2.7 meters high. The layout of the monk houses on the west side is the most distinctive. The front and back are two rows of north-south-oriented monk houses, between which a narrow and long courtyard is sandwiched, and the east is a row of north-south-oriented monk houses. Each year from December 23 to 29, Muru Temple held a grand annual sacrifice dance and dance. The temple is now the Tibetan Buddhist Association Printing Institute. Tickets: free
Last year I came here to overhaul, this time the construction is near the end, the color of the building is very beautiful and bright, I also entered the temple, the scene is also very characteristic, the space is very full, not empty, it can be seen that it is a place where monks concentrate on homework every day, But because of respect for the rules, there was no filming. Because of the reasons for the renovation, there are not many people here, but I still saw Tibetan elderly people coming in one after another, reverently reading the scriptures, praying in front of a statue of a Bodhisattva, putting a yuan or a corner of lamp oil money, almost everyone is the same... Tibetans are very religious, Letter to the afterlife... I also learned to put a dollar of lamp oil money, pray and pray...
有时候觉得拉萨的建筑挺奇怪的,明明前面是林立的、比较现代化的商业区,这边冷不丁冒出一个比较古朴、有藏地特色的寺庙。
