Qinglian Temple.

Qinglian Temple was established in the Northern Qi Dynasty and was once a place where the Buddhist community of the Sui and Tang Dynasties aspired to be, similar to a training base for high monks. It is divided into the upper and lower temples. The lower temple is also called the Ancient Qinglian Temple. It has a pagoda from the Yuan Dynasty and a Shakya Hall with iron railings. Inside are Tang-style colored sculptures. You can see them through the railings. It is said that it was not open before. I happened to meet a teacher who taught archaeology and brought students to see it. I heard a lot of explanations, but I didn't understand it. But I think the skills of the ancients are very good. The modern restoration is done by students from the Sculpture Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. Because they study Western sculpture, they can't restore the original appearance. The upper temple is called Fuyan Zen Temple. The lower temple was established first, followed by the upper temple. There are no two 1,400-year-old ginkgo trees. The Maitreya Hall also has Tang Dynasty colored sculptures. The hands are damaged. It is said that they don't know what it was like before, so they didn't repair it. Qinglian Temple is backed by mountains and faces the water. It is very beautiful in the sun.
