Deep within the sacred Buddhist site of Mount Wutai lies a 1,000-year-old monastery – Foguang Temple. Within this vast ancient complex, the East Hall stands out as a dazzling jewel with its unique heritage and magnificent architecture.

The East Hall, as the central structure of Foguang Temple, is an outstanding example of traditional Chinese architecture. Built in the Tang Dynasty (618-907), it has stood the test of time for over a millennium. Supremely elegant and majestic, it is a testament to the outstanding skill of ancient Chinese architects.
