Inside, you’ll marvel at the 18-meter-tall Maitreya Buddha statue carved from a single piece of sandalwood (a national treasure), admire the exquisite Buddhist murals and sculptures, and explore the five grand halls dedicated to different Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Your guide will share stories about the temple’s transformation from a royal residence to a religious site, the spread of Tibetan Buddhism in the Qing imperial court, and the cultural significance of its sacred artifacts.Shicha Lake Park(Pass by)
