The Longxing Temple we are going to now is located in Zhengding County, 15kilometers north of Shijiazhuang. Beijing Guangzhou railway and Beijing ShenzhenExpressway pass through the territory. It takes about 40 minutes from downtownto Zhengding County. Zhengding is the South Gate of Beijing. It has always beena place for military strategists. In history, it was called "Sanxiong town inthe north" together with Baoding and Beijing. Up to now, stone carvings of"Sanguan Xiong town" are embedded in the South Gate of Zhengding. Zhengding isan ancient cultural city with a long history. It was the state of Xianyu in thespring and Autumn period. The Warring States period belonged to the state ofZhongshan. After Zhao destroyed Zhongshan, it belonged to the state of Zhao. Inthe Qin Dynasty, it belonged to Hengshan County. In the early Han Dynasty, itwas called Dongyuan County. In the reign of emperor Gaodi of the Han Dynasty, itwas renamed Zhending, implying real stability. Since 1400, it has been the seatof government, state, county and county. In 1723, the emperor yongzhengyuan ofQing Dynasty avoided the name of Yinzhen, the emperor Shizong, so it is still inuse today.
With a long history, Zhengding has left a unique style of scenic spots andhistoric sites, known as "three mountains are missing, nine bridges are missing,nine floors, four towers, eight temples, and 24 gold medals square". "San ShanBu Jian" refers to the fact that Zhengding used the names of Zhongshan, Hengshanand Changshan in history, but there was no mountain in Zhengding. "Nine bridgesdo not flow" means that there are three bridges in front of the gate of LongxingTemple, in front of the main hall of Gufu and county Confucian temple, but theyare all dry bridges. "Nine towers, four towers and eight temples" refer to thefour gate towers, four corner towers and Yanghe tower of the ancient city; fourtowers refer to Lingxiao tower, Huata tower, Xumi tower and chengling tower;Eight Temples refer to Longxing Temple, Guanghui temple, Linji temple, KaiyuanTemple, Tianning Temple, Qiansi temple, housi temple and Chongyin temple. "24gold medal archways" means that Zhengding used to have 24 gold medal archways,large and small, such as the larger Xujia archway and Liangjia archway. With thechange of history and the wind and rain, many precious cultural relics have beendestroyed. However, judging from the existing four national protected culturalrelics, seven provincial protected cultural relics and more than 10 county-levelprotected cultural relics, it is still a famous historical and cultural ancient city was listed as a provincial historical and cultural city in 1990and a national historical and cultural city in 1994.
Zhengding tourism has the characteristics of "new and old", "elegant andpopular". Among many places of interest, Longxing Temple, which was built in 586ad, was built by Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of Song Dynasty. It ismajestic and well preserved. It enjoys a high reputation at home and abroad. Itis praised as "the first famous temple outside Beijing" by the famous ancientarchitect Mr. Liang Sicheng. In addition, the Huata of Guanghui temple is aclever combination of Vajra pagoda and flower pagoda. The Lingxiao tower ofTianning Temple is the first wooden tower in China. The Tang Dynasty bell towerof Kaiyuan Temple corresponds to the ancient pagoda, which provides valuableinformation for the study of the development of Buddhism in China. The chenglingPagoda in Linji temple is the mantle pagoda of Yixuan, the founder of Linji sectof Buddhism. At ordinary times, a large number of Japanese monks come to worshipthe ancestral pagoda, which becomes a link between China and Japan.
There are many new landscapes in Zhengding, which mainly focus on promotingnational culture. Rongguofu was built in strict accordance with thearchitectural pattern of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. There are alsojourney to the West Palace, Fengshen romance palace and so on. In addition, thenational table tennis training base in Zhengding is also famous.
In a few minutes, we are going to have the grand Longxing Temple. Let megive you a brief introduction to the general situation of Longxing xing Temple is a large-scale, earlier, majestic and well preserved Buddhistbuilding complex in China. In order to keep this famous temple well preserved,Premier Zhou Enlai gave instructions on the battle plan before the "Zhengtaicampaign": we must try to protect a number of cultural relics and historic sitessuch as Zhengding Longxing Temple.
Longxing Temple was built in the sixth year of kaihuang (586 AD) of SuiDynasty. It was named longzang temple at the beginning, and was changed intoLongxing Temple in Tang Dynasty. In the fourth year of Kaibao of Song Dynasty(971 AD), in the name of song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, Longxing Temple was expanded,Dabei pavilion was built, and 21.3-meter-high bronze Avalokitesvara withthousands of hands and eyes was cast. A group of Song Dynasty buildings rosefrom the ground. In Jin, yuan and Ming Dynasties, they were all repaired andrebuilt. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong of QingDynasty, it was rebuilt twice, and the Imperial Palace was built on both 1709, it was rebuilt and renamed "Longxing Temple". This is probably becauseEmperor Kangxi also thought that Zhengding had outstanding people and was afraidof the emperor in the future, so he changed "dragon" to "dragon".
Longxing Temple covers an area of 82500 square meters. The main buildingsstill retain the style and characteristics of Song Dynasty architecture. Thewhole building is arranged on a central axis from south to north, includingErlong Xizhu Zhaobi, Sankong stone bridge, Tianwang hall, ruins of Dajue Liushihall, Mani hall, altar, Cishi Pavilion, zhuanlunzang Pavilion, Dabei Pavilion,Mituo hall, Pilu hall, etc.
Having said that, we have arrived at Longxing Temple. Please follow me tovisit.
Erlongxizhu, Zhaobi, Shiqiao
The tall glazed screen wall that we see now is a screen wall that blocksthe gate of ancient temples and famous people. In the center of the wall is thepattern of "two dragons playing with pearls" carved on glazed bricks. The twodragons are flying in the sky, which is very spectacular. The three single holestone bridges we are now passing are three of the nine bridges that do not rding to folklore, there used to be half a Luan stand here, and ZhaoKuangyin visited here many times.
The most important hall in the temple -- Tianwang Hall
Tianwang hall is one of the most important halls in Longxing Temple. It hasthree deep rooms and three wide rooms. It is a Northern Song Dynasty buildingwith single eaves and seven purlins. However, it was overhauled in the QingDynasty, as evidenced by floating clouds and Dougong.
On the top of the central arch of the hall, there is a gold horizontalplaque written by Xuanye, Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. You come into thehall with me. In the middle of the hall is Maitreya Buddha with a big belly anda smiling face. He is one of the Mahayana Bodhisattvas in Buddhism. The orthodoxMaitreya Buddha should wear a Bodhisattva costume and a heavenly rding to the Buddhist Scripture, Maitreya is his surname, ayido. He was borninto a big Brahman family in southern India and was a distinguished r becoming a disciple of Sakyamuni, he ascended to the 33rd level of heaven,douhutian (the paradise of alternate Buddha). The Buddha predicted that he wouldinherit Sakyamuni's Buddhism and become a Buddha in the future. In other words,he is the legal successor of the Buddha, also known as the future Buddha. Thecloth bag in his hand is called the heaven and earth bag, also known as the racebag. It can hold the world and give away children, implying that Buddhism isboundless.
Now we can see the Buddha statue of Maitreya with big belly. It is saidthat it was a monk in the Five Dynasties and a native of Fenghua, ZhejiangProvince. It's called cheeZe. When I was alive, I often carried a cloth bag,begged when I saw things, talked incoherently, and slept at will, like is the author of the book "the passing of the world", which says: "Maitreyais true Maitreya, which is divided into hundreds of billions. It shows peoplefrom time to time, and the world does not know it." in addition, in the historyof Zhejiang Province, Maitreya reincarnation organized many peasant uprisings,so the world thought that he was the incarnation of Maitreya, and createdMaitreya according to his appearance. Some Siyuan wrote another antitheticalcouplet on both sides of the Straits Association: "if you have a big stomach,you can tolerate things that are difficult to tolerate in the world. When youopen your mouth, you will laugh at the ridiculous people in the world."
On both sides of the hall are the familiar four heavenly kings. They arethe kings of the East, the south, the West and the north. They hold pipa, sword,dragon and umbrella respectively. After the four heavenly kings were introducedinto China, they were endowed with Chinese Moral: the southern heavenly king wasin charge of the wind, the eastern heavenly king was in charge of the wind, thenorthern heavenly king was in charge of the rain, and the Western heavenly kingwas in charge of the rain. All in all, they are "in good weather", implying abumper harvest of grain.
When you come here, you may have some doubts: why don't you see themountain gate? Most temples should pass the mountain gate first and then enterthe temple, but Longxing Temple has no mountain gate. There is a beautifullegend here. It is said that Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynastyordered general Yuchi Jingde to supervise the construction of Longxing the project was about to end, the news came that the king of the TangDynasty wanted to kill Qin Qiong. Qin Qiong was Yuchi Gong's good friend. YuchiGong quickly returned to the court. When he arrived near Kaifeng, HenanProvince, the Construction officials caught up with him and asked him where themountain gate was. Yuchi Gong was very anxious. Without thinking, he pointedwith a steel whip: "it's here to repair.". So the builders built the mountaingate there. Up to now, there is a doggerel in Zhengding: "the gate of the templeis far away, and the gate is in Henan.". Of course, it's just a rding to historical research, Yuchi Gong has never been to Zhengding, letalone the theory that the king of Tang Dynasty killed Qin Qiong. It is only acommon layout of temple buildings to replace the Mountain Gate with the heavenlyking hall.
Eternal regret: the ruins of the Sixth Division Hall of Dajue
The ruins we see now are the ruins of the Sixth Division Hall of Dajue,which used to be the largest Buddhist hall in the temple. It is said that thebuilding is 34.5 meters wide and 18.3 meters high, with colorful hangingmountains and gold statues inside, which is very spectacular. It was first builtin the Yuanfeng period of Shenzong of Song Dynasty. The capitals of Jin, yuanand Qing Dynasties were rebuilt. In the early years of the Republic of China, itwas a great pity that it collapsed because of years of disrepair. Dajue isanother explanation of the purpose. Buddha is the transliteration abbreviationof "Buddha" in Sanskrit, and free translation is "awakener". According to theBuddhist Scripture, those who can be "conscious", "aware of others" and "awareof perfection" can become Buddhas.
It is said that there were six Buddha statues here, and Hinayana Buddhismbelieved that they were the six ancestors before Sakyamuni. According tohistorical records, Brahmanism prevailed in ancient India at the end of thesixth century, but it advocated that Brahmanism created man, which wasessentially a kind of racial discrimination. In this way, many people areagainst it. In addition to Sakyamuni, there are six influential figures. In aword, they are different from Buddhism and are called "the six masters ofWaiDao". Here is dedicated to the six masters other than Buddhism, which meansthat the ancient political unity of the majority.
Mani Hall: the architectural model of the Song Dynasty's "building Frenchstyle"
There are six places in Longxing Temple, which can be called the best inChina. Now let's take a look at the first place: the shape of Mani hall. We arenow standing outside the hall to see the main hall: the plane of the main hallis in a cross shape, with mountain flowers in the middle of all the fourdirections. In the center of the hall is a double eaves and a top of Xieshanmountain, with green tiles for filling the core and green glazed tiles fortrimming. Under the eaves, the brackets are grand, the distribution is sparse,the columns are thick, and the rolling brake, side corner and rising areobvious. Careful observation shows that the two ends of the horizontal columnare high, medium and low, and the upper end of the vertical column is graduallyinward. This kind of structure is similar to the Song Dynasty's "Zao Zao FAShi", which was very common before the Tang and Song Dynasties, and graduallylost after the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This is the only isolated example ofancient architecture in China. This unique building once deeply attracted g Sicheng. In 1933, he braved war and chaos to come to inspect, andspecially included this photo in the history of world architecture.
The word "mani" in Mani hall means hero and saint. Some people think it isanother transliteration of "Mou Ni"; others think it means Manichaeism. We canalso see lions, chickens, peacocks, horses, dragons and other animals on theeaves of the pavilion of Mani hall, as well as a monk riding a lion. He is whatwe often call "Wangfeng Buddha". In Buddhism, he was built around the roof toshow the evil spirit of avoiding disaster.
Please follow me into the hall. We can see that the colorful clay sculpturein the center is a sitting statue of Sakyamuni. Sakyamuni and Confucius arecontemporaries. They are the founders of Buddhism. Their surname is qiaodamo andtheir name is Siddhartha. Standing on his right side, his elder disciple JIAYEis holding his fist with both hands. The wise and devout man with his left handfolded is Ananda. Chinese Zen said that he was the second generation patriarchwho inherited Buddhism. The above three statues are original sculptures of theSong Dynasty. The two figures in front of the three statues are ManjusriBodhisattva and Puxian Bodhisattva, who were made up during the Chenghua periodof the Ming Dynasty. Their mounts are lions and white elephants. When it comesto Bodhisattvas, the four Bodhisattvas in China are Manjusri, Puxian, Guanyinand dizang. He praised Manjusri as "great wisdom", sages as "great action",Guanyin as "great sorrow", and dizang as "great wish". They are said to havefour famous Buddhist Mountains: Mount Wutai, Mount Emei, Mount Putuo and MountJiuhua.
Let's take a look at the murals around the hall. This is a picture of theorigin and development of the Shi family, which was drawn during the Chenghuaperiod of the Ming Dynasty with Buddhist stories as the theme. This muralvividly depicts the whole process of Sakyamuni's birth, becoming a monk,asceticism, becoming a Taoist and nirvana. The existing area is 422 squaremeters. Let's take a look at the East gable wall's "Grand View of the west":this mural depicts the prosperity of the Western Paradise. Let's take a closerlook at the lower left corner of the painting. Within an area of about 1 squaremeter, it depicts the human life, old age, illness, death and many othersufferings in a dim gray green. It is in sharp contrast to the splendor of thesky. Buddhists believe that only devout practice can get rid of the eightsufferings in the world and become Buddhists.
Please follow me to the north side of the temple and have a look at thesecond most popular place in the country in Longxing Temple: daozuo we see now is an exquisite and elegant colorful mountain. Luohan and theGod of Dharma guard patrol the mountains. Water spray animals and waterabsorbing animals keep the sea water flowing, which symbolizes that there aresuccessors to Buddhism. The 3.4-meter-high statue in the middle is the famousinverted Guanyin. As we all know, most statues in temples face south. But thisGuanyin is facing north from south. Please see, Guanyin's left foot is steppingon lotus, which means stepping on the Western Pure Land world, which means thatit is not contaminated by mud. The right leg is bent up to show good luck. Putyour hands on your knees and put your left hand on your right wrist. Especiallyher eyes, no matter which direction we look at her, we can feel her two eyeslooking down. Her eyes just form an emotional communication with the worshipers,which is respectful but not blasphemous. The white elephants and golden monkeyson the left and right are her and Puxian's mounts. One of the reasons why she isdown is the direction we just mentioned. Another reason is that Guanyin oncemade a vow: "all living beings will never end and never meet.". But how can allliving beings reach the end of universal salvation? So she can only sit backforever.

Pleaselook at this colorful clay sculpture hanging mountain on the north wall of theinner trough of Mani hall. There are more than 30 clay statues in the hangingmountain, but the most noticeable one is the colorful Guanyin Bodhisattva in themiddle, commonly known as "inverted Guanyin". Because Guanyin Bodhisattva hasthe oath of "all living beings will never be able to reach the end of universalsalvation, and all living beings will never reach the end of universalsalvation", it constitutes the image of inverted sitting Guanyin. The statue ofAvalokitesvara is 3.4 meters high. Please look at the eyes with deep wisdomoverlooking us. Do you feel shocked? In fact, what is beautiful about her is notonly her elegant posture and elegant appearance, but also her vast mind andtouching charity.
Through the archway and the altar, we can see that scattered on both sidesof the central axis are two typical two-story pavilions built in the NorthernSong Dynasty, which can be distinguished as the lunzang Pavilion and the CihuaPavilion.
The zhuanlunzang pavilion was built in the Northern Song Dynasty. Thediameter of the zhuanlunzang Pavilion in front of us is 7 meters. It is dividedinto three parts: the Tibetan seat, the Tibetan body and the Tibetan roof. Nextto it is a 10.8-meter wooden shaft. You will be interested to ask what is theuse of such a special magic weapon? According to historical records,zhuanluncang was created for the convenience of illiterate believers or thosewho had no time to read scriptures in the southern Liang Dynasty. The believerspush the wheel for a week and read the Scriptures again. Although it has beenthousands of years, it can be rolled gradually with the help of two or threepeople. Isn't it amazing? As a special kind of magic weapon, it has a history ofmore than 1400 years. However, due to affectation and man-made reasons, thereare few existing objects in the sea. Among them, lunzang in Longxing Temple isthe oldest and the largest one, which is ten years old Precious historicalremains.
As we all know, in the history of Chinese calligraphy, the Sui Dynasty wasa transitional period from Hanli to Tangkai, and the longzangsi stele that Iwant to introduce now is just the representative work of this period. Its fontis dull and broad, clumsy but elegant, stable but not stagnant. It can be saidthat it is standard regular script and valuable material for studying thehistory of Chinese calligraphy.

Therefore,this Avalokitesvara is also known as "Avalokitesvara with thousands of hands andeyes". It is worth mentioning that as early as more than 1000 years ago, withoutmechanization, the bronze Buddha was completely cast by hand, which invented awonder in the history of metallurgy and foundry in the world. It is preciselybecause of its existence that people naturally called Longxing Temple "GreatBuddha Temple".
Finally, we came to the Pilu hall, where a bronze statue of Pilu Buddha wasworshipped in the middle. "Pilu" is the Sanskrit abbreviation of "piluzana",which means "shining everywhere". Pilu Buddha is Sakyamuni's Dharma Buddha. ThisPilu Buddha is 6.72 meters high.
