Exploring the Majestic Beauty of the Millennium-Old Temple and the Water Guanyin~

Suzhou Chongyuan Temple, located in the picturesque Yangcheng Lake Peninsula, features a 33-meter-high statue of Guanyin in the Water Guanyin Courtyard, showcasing the unique charm of Chongyuan Temple's Lotus Buddha Kingdom and Guanyin Dojo. The temple's architecture includes the Mountain Gate, Heavenly King Hall, Bell and Drum Tower, and the Grand Hall of the Great Hero. The Grand Hall of the Great Hero covers an area of 2100 square meters, making it the largest single building among domestic temples. On Guanyin Island in front of the temple, there is the largest indoor Guanyin statue in China, standing at 33 meters high. From a distance on Yangcheng Lake, Chongyuan Temple appears majestic with its grand Grand Hall of the Great Hero, the imposing and magnificent Guanyin Pavilion with its flying eaves and upturned corners, and the temple's layered main buildings. The temple also features the grand Guanyin statue, bronze-skin leather drum, Guanyin wall on the island, and a bronze bell that can produce the first sound of the Tang Dynasty's first law, all of which recreate the splendor of Chongyuan Temple in its heyday.
