Guangsheng Temple Review

Guangsheng Temple Scenic Area, located in Huoshan, Hongdong County, Linyi City, Shanxi Province. The scenic area includes three attractions: the Guangsheng Temple on the mountain, the Guangsheng Temple under the mountain, and the water temple. The scenic spot is being renovated. A new parking lot has been built under the mountain. You need to take a shuttle bus to the scenic spot. The round-trip ticket is 20, the ticket is 55 (free for more than 60 years old), and the explanation of Shangsi 40, Xia Temple and Shuishan Temple 20. Economic development is the first need, understandable. There are three scenic spots: the Jin Dynasty of Shang Temple, the "Zhaocheng Jinzang", the murals of the Yuan Dynasty of the Shui Temple, and the Ming Dynasty of the Feihong Pagoda of Shang Temple. Zhaocheng Jinzang was once preserved in the Mituo Temple of Shangsi, and is now preserved in the National Library. It is the earliest "Dazang Sutra" in existence, and "Yongle Grand Canon", "Four Library Quanshu", and "Dunhuang Legacy Book" and is called the treasure of the four major town halls of the country map. The murals in the water temple are exquisite and well preserved, reflecting the people's lifestyle at the time, with soil refrigerators, honeycomb coal stoves, Yuanza Opera classes, etc., which have extremely high cultural and historical value. But the current protection is not strong, some tourists use mobile phone flashes to direct the mural to watch. The front and back halls of the temple have huge murals. But in the 1920s, the then presiding officer to improve the monks' lives to repair the temple, the murals sold for 1600 oceans, he actually set up a monument to record this matter! Now the Yuan Dynasty's "Yuan Shengguang Buddha Statement" is preserved in the Nelson Atkinson Museum of Art in Kansas City (I was fortunate to witness it), and the "Pharmacist Buddha Statement" is preserved in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, United States. Two Ming Dynasty murals in the front hall were preserved at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Humanity and Archaeology. The Feihong Tower is located in the upper temple on Huoshan Mountain, and it became the world's tallest glazed brick tower after the destruction of the Dabaoen Temple tower in Nanjing. The exterior of the tower is decorated with glazed glass, various components and patterns, exquisitely pinched, colorful and beautiful, and the color is as new as ever. The 83 edition of "Travel to the West" "Sweeping the Tower to identify the wrong" is the scene. In addition, there are some hanging plastics in the Tibetan temple in the upper temple, but unfortunately it is quite dilapidated. The front ridge of the roof of the Pilu Temple is very short, and I have seen this kind of temple roof for the first time. In general, the things of Guangsheng Temple are worth the fare, and there are not many tourists. The management of the scenic spot is developing in the good direction, but there are still many details that need to be improved. For example, if tourists take mobile phone flash lights to take pictures of murals, this can be studied from Beijing's Fahai Temple, the hall is closed, the murals are sold separately, and the person is responsible for explaining.
