The stone carving art museum has the famous Wuta Temple, is the core building of the museum, the original Wuta Temple was destroyed in the late Qing Dynasty, in the late 1980s, on the original Wuta Temple site, the current Beijing stone carving art museum with the display of Beijing area stone carving cultural relics as the theme. There are 9 display areas on the east, north and west sides of the King Kong Throne Tower. More than 500 stone artifacts are displayed, including stone tablets, stone carvings, stone carvings, tombstones, and a special area for displaying the cemetery, which is very precious. Tickets are 20 yuan, and the elderly card is free. The museum is closed on Monday. We entered from the southwest gate of the zoo. We first visited the Song Jiaoren Memorial Tower site in the zoo and the main building of the agricultural test site established in the Qing Dynasty. The Western-style Changguan Building, and then went north to the north gate of the zoo and directly into the stone art museum. There are not many people in the museum, and the ginkgo leaves are not yellow yet, but the four-dimensional large-scale persimmon trees planted in the museum garden are full of fruit. In the sunset, the golden light is shining. Many photography enthusiasts with long guns and short guns are creating art. The scenery is pleasing to the eye.

    Also called Wuta Temple, just opposite the Beijing Zoo. Like the stele forest in Xi'an. I didn't know there was such a good place near the company for so many years. The first 200 people are free every Wednesday. Although not big, the exhibition and exhibition board introduction is very rich, the text is informative, it will take four or five hours to look carefully. The text introduction of the stone stele statues on the outdoor exhibition are all carved on the small slabs, not very clear, especially in the sun.

    Near the Beijing Zoo, the museum is not half an hour to an hour to see it. Beijing Huimin ticket activities come. Usually the first 200 on Wednesday are also free to enter the park. It rained on the day of the visit and it was not intact, and I have the opportunity to go again in the future.

    Beijing Stone Carving Art Museum was formerly Zhenjue Temple. The incense of the Ming and Qing generations was very vigorous. The core of the museum is a 5-story stone-carved pagoda, imitating Indian style, but according to Chinese architecture, it is a cleverly designed beamless palace. The museum has a lot of stone artifacts excavated in Beijing. It is very interesting and recommended to visit.
