First established in the Western Jin Dynasty (265-317), the Tanzhe Temple has a history of more than 1,700 years, and is considered to be the oldest ancient temple in Beijing, as well as one of the most-visited temples in the capital.
Surrounded by ancient trees, pagodas, and lofty halls, this Buddhist temple in the suburbs of the city embodies the aesthetic principles of Chinese ancient architecture, with a central axis running through the middle and basic symmetry on the left and right sides.
