Jinzhou Yixian Fengguo Temple Travel Guide

There is a thousand-year-old city hidden in Liaoning Province, which is Yixian County, formerly known as Yizhou. Here, you can not only see the rise and fall of the Five Yan and the Great Liao, but also see historical sites such as the "Millennium National Treasure"! Fengguo Temple is one of them, and it is also the filming location of "The Grandmaster". [Opening Hours]: April 1 to October 31: 8:00–16:30 (last entry at 16:00) November 1 to March 31: 8:30–16:00 (last entry at 15:30) [Ticket Price]: Recommended [Fengguo Temple, Wanfo Cave] Joint ticket: CNY 69/person [Fengguo Temple, Wanfo Cave, Antai Gate Ruins] Joint ticket: CNY 79/person Single attraction ticket price: Fengguo Temple: CNY 50 Wanfo Cave: CNY 40 Antai Gate: CNY 10 Guangsheng Temple: CNY 10 [Activities]: Mahavira Hall: The main building of Fengguo Temple, the largest and highest-grade wooden structure among the ancient Buddhist temples in China, represents the highest level of Chinese architecture in the 11th century. The reason why the Mahavira Hall is not called the Mahavira Treasure Hall is that the rare treasures in the world are already in the hall. Liao Dynasty Painted Sculptures: The most important and precious treasures in the Mahavira Hall are 23 painted sculptures from the Liao Dynasty, including the world's oldest, largest, and most exquisite painted clay sculpture group of the Liao Dynasty, the "Seven Buddhas of the Past", as well as 14 Bodhisattvas and two Vajra Warriors. "Seven Buddhas of the Past": More than 9 meters high, sitting in one hall, majestic. From east to west, they are Kasyapa Buddha, Krakucchanda Buddha, Sikhin Buddha, Vipasyin Buddha, Visvabhu Buddha, Kanakamuni Buddha, and Sakyamuni Buddha. The Vipasyin Buddha in the middle is the tallest, reaching 9.5 meters. "The Most Beautiful Bodhisattva": The Bodhisattva on the east side of Kanakamuni Buddha, with a smile on his face, seems to be telling a story. Reclining Guanyin: Behind the Vipasyin Buddha, there is a reclining Guanyin statue with a male appearance, which was rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty. In the movie "The Grandmaster", the scene where Zhang Ziyi, who plays Gong Er, worships Buddha in the temple was filmed here, and it has become a popular spot for tourists to take photos. [Itinerary]: Recommended route: Fengguo Temple - Wanfo Cave - Antai Gate Ruins (or Guangsheng Temple Tower) Fengguo Temple: [Thousand-year-old Temple] Praised as the "Supreme National Treasure"! One of the eight Liao structures, the all-wood structure is a miracle in architectural history! It is also the filming location of "The Grandmaster". Wanfo Cave: Known as one of the three major grottoes of the Northern Wei Dynasty along with "Longmen" and "Yungang", it is the largest grotto group in Northeast China! Although the wind and sand have passed, the scenery of that time can still be seen. Antai Gate Ruins: 600 years of history, the only remaining ancient city gate in Yixian County. Guangsheng Temple Tower: An ancient and solemn Liao Dynasty ancient tower, standing quietly among the alleys of western Liaoning.
