After lighting incense at the Bell and Drum Tower, Mingyuan took Ye Junze and Lin Xin and walked elsewhere.
After passing the Bell and Drum Tower, the group of three came to the Magic Treasure Pavilion and the Sutra Pavilion. The Fabao Pavilion is the same size and shape as the Sutra Pavilion. It is also in the double-eaves Xieshan style. The pavilion's platform is 5 meters high, 25.2 meters long from east to west, and 22.5 meters wide from north to south. The platform is a reinforced concrete structure, forming the lower chamber of the pavilion.
A five-bay Xieshan-style hall with double eaves is built on the platform, 18.5 meters long from east to west and 12.95 meters wide from north to south. It has vermilion lacquer columns, painted forehead beams, and is covered with gray tube tiles.
Among them, there are enshrined in the middle of the Sutra Pavilion
"Ancient Chinese Buddha". The Buddhist Scripture Pavilion also houses more than ten kinds of Buddhist scriptures, including the "Longzang", "Chinese Tripitaka" and "Dunhuang Tripitaka". It is the place where the monks of Baima Temple read and study. There is a bronze Buddha statue enshrined in the Fabao Pavilion and is also a collection of Buddhist scriptures. There are dozens of
"magic weapon". These two places were the places that Mingyuan was going to take the two of them to visit when he mentioned the various cultural relics in the White Horse Temple.
After all, according to Mingyuan, there are many cultural relics in the White Horse Temple, which are worthy of careful observation.
Since Ye Junze and Lin Xin rarely come to White Horse Temple, they must not miss it. Otherwise, this trip can really be said to be in vain.
Because the Magic Treasure Pavilion and the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion were not in the same place, Mingyuan took the two of them into the Magic Treasure Pavilion to visit first.
As soon as they entered the Magic Treasure Pavilion, Ye Junze and Lin Xin saw the bronze Buddha statue enshrined inside it at a glance.
After carefully looking at the bronze Buddha statue, the two of them slowly turned their eyes and saw the statues placed on rows of sandalwood shelves.
"Magic weapon". It's just that they didn't start from these so-called
Just feel any fluctuations in spiritual power from the "magic weapon". Come to think of it, these magic weapons just have such a name, and they don't actually have the ability to be used as magic weapons.
After understanding this, Ye Junze and Lin Xin just looked at it for a few times, then slowly withdrew their gaze and stopped observing.
After touring the entire Magic Treasure Pavilion in this way, Mingyuan led the two of them slowly towards the Sutra Pavilion.
Because the Sutra Pavilion and the Magic Treasure Pavilion were not very far apart, it didn't take long for the three of them to enter the Sutra Pavilion again.
Ye Junze and Lin Xin followed closely behind Mingyuan. As soon as they walked in, they saw the ancient Chinese Buddha enshrined in the center.
They couldn't help but look at it carefully and looked at it carefully. I saw that the ancient Chinese Buddha was only as big as a thumb. It was made of gilt copper and sat in the lotus position on the Xumizuo. Just looking at it, it looked very strange and beautiful.
After carefully looking at the ancient Chinese Buddha, Ye Junze and Lin Xin gradually moved their eyes around and began to observe other existences in the Sutra Pavilion.
After observing silently for a while, Ye Junze and Lin Xin nodded slightly, with a hint of surprise in their eyes at the same time.
It can only be said that this place is completely worthy of the reputation of the Sutra Pavilion. Everywhere you look, except for the ancient Chinese Buddha, there are volumes of scriptures.
Mingyuan on the side also dutifully introduced to the two of them what each volume of scriptures was.
Ye Junze and Lin Xin did not hesitate at all. They raised their ears and listened attentively.
While Mingyuan was explaining, Ye Junze and Lin Xin also picked up the scriptures on the shelf and started reading them casually.
Although the two of them knew nothing about Buddhist scriptures, they had listened to Mingyuan's previous lectures and were influenced by them, so they had a little understanding.
It didn't take long for Mingyuan to introduce all the scripture collections in the Scripture Collection Pavilion to Ye Junze and Lin Xin in turn.
At this time, the two of them had finished reading the scriptures in their hands. After touring the entire Sutra Pavilion, Mingyuan continued to lead Ye Junze and Lin Xin to other places.
After all, the entire White Horse Temple is still very big. Of course, they can't stay in the same place for too long. They still have to visit all the places as much as possible.
During the following period, Mingyuan took Ye Junze and Lin Xin to visit the Reclining Buddha Hall, the Jade Buddha Hall, the Sixth Patriarch Hall, and the Tomb of the Two Monks.
During this period, Mingyuan still introduced them dutifully. Mingyuan has been in White Horse Temple for so many years, so he naturally knows everything about White Horse Temple.
He could easily pick up things on various encyclopedias, or even things that had not been mentioned before, and explain them to the two of them, which also greatly increased the knowledge of Ye Junze and Lin Xin.
When Lin Xin was making introductions, she also needed to turn on her phone to check the encyclopedia. But Mingyuan doesn't need it at all. When he comes to a place, he can tell the two people about various related things here.
So compared to Lin Xin, Mingyuan is more like a professional tour guide. After coming out of these places, Ye Junze and Lin Xin followed Mingyuan to Qiyun Pagoda Courtyard.
As soon as the three of them came here, Mingyuan pointed to the Qiyun Pagoda in front and introduced them to them. Just listen to Mingyuan say slowly:
"Qiyun Tower was built during the reign of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Its original name is
The "Sakyamuni Relic Pagoda" was repeatedly destroyed by wars and was rebuilt in the fifteenth year of Dading in the Jin Dynasty. The Jinxiu Sakyamuni Relic Pagoda is a square brick tower with dense eaves, 13 floors and about 25 meters high. It is one of the earliest extant Jin Dynasty ground-level buildings in Luoyang. In the Qing Dynasty, Ruxiu, the abbot of the White Horse Temple, founded Qiyun based on the instructions of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The record of the tower was renamed
"Qiyun Tower". Later, Luo City implemented the protection of Qiyun Pagoda, and built the Qiyun Pagoda Courtyard covering an area of 15 acres in 1990. "
"That's what we see now." After listening to Mingyuan's careful introduction, Ye Junze and Lin Xin nodded slightly to express their understanding.
With that said, the three of them lifted their steps forward and quickly walked into the Qiyun Pagoda Courtyard. With Mingyuan's careful introduction and company, Ye Junze and Lin Xin took a leisurely stroll in the Qiyun Tower Courtyard, which covers an area of 15 acres.
The entire Qiyun Pagoda faces south and is rectangular in plan. On the central axis from south to north, there are buildings such as the mountain gate, release pool, stone arch bridge, and Qiyun Tower.
There are auxiliary buildings on the east and west sides of Qiyun Pagoda: 3 Buddhist chanting halls and 3 dining halls are built on the west side; 3 guest halls, 3 training class classrooms are built on the east side, and a Zen room is built. All buildings are Hard Mountain Pose.
On both sides of the mountain gate are large Buddhist stele corridors. On the west side are the portraits and verses of the thirty-third ancestors of Zen Buddhism, and on the east side are
"The Deeds of Sakyamuni Yinghua" and calligraphy treasures of eminent monks. After Mingyuan's introduction, Ye Junze and Lin Xin also learned that around 1999, the Baima Temple Temple built the Baima Temple Town
"Digong Temple" was taken over by the temple and renovated. In addition, new tourist facilities such as rockeries, viewing pavilions, and life-release ponds have been built.
It is precisely because of this that although Qiyun Pagoda Courtyard looks simple, there are still many places for Ye Junze and the others to visit.
The three of them chatted and wandered around the Qiyun Tower courtyard for nearly twenty minutes.
After walking around here, Ye Junze and the others had completely visited all the areas in the Chinese Ancient Building District in White Horse Temple.
So as soon as they came out of Qiyun Tower Courtyard, they no longer had any hesitation and were ready to move to a new area.
Now that you have visited the Chinese Ancient Building Area, the next place along the route here should be the Thai Buddhist Temple Garden.
According to Mingyuan, only five or six years have passed since the completion of the Thai Buddhist Temple Garden, so the overall look is still quite new. It is not as full of ancient buildings as the ancient Chinese buildings they visited just now. Strong and long historical atmosphere.
And according to Mingyuan, this is also the place where the relics of Sakyamuni Buddha are enshrined. There are also many different types of buildings in the Thai Buddhist Temple Garden, and the overall architectural style is full of Thai architectural style.
The relics of Sakyamuni Buddha are enshrined on the second floor of the stupa inside. On the first floor of the stupa, there are 9 most representative Buddha statues and 3 blue glazed gold statues representing different historical periods in Thailand. Cold season, hot season, rainy season
"Three Seasons Buddha", a total of 12 Buddha statues. After Mingyuan brought Ye Junze and Lin Xin here, he also gave them a serious and detailed introduction while taking them to sightsee here.
Although the architectural style here is far from those they have seen before, Ye Junze and Lin Xin did not dislike it at all. Instead, there was a strong look of interest in their eyes.
After all, if we were serious about it, they could be considered to have experienced exotic customs this time. As soon as they entered the Thai Buddhist Temple Garden, Mingyuan led the two of them towards the stupa.
The three of them first visited the Buddha statues enshrined on the first floor of the stupa, and then climbed to the second floor of the stupa to pay homage to the relics of Sakyamuni Buddha.
After coming out of the stupa, they also saw the Erawan Buddha, the Big Buddha Hall, the museum, the circulation office, the Bell and Drum Tower, the pavilion and other places one after another.
The buildings here are well-proportioned and relaxed, and full of unique architectural aesthetics. The entire Thai Buddhist Temple Garden may look small from the outside, but it is actually quite big. Even with the strength of Ye Junze and Lin Xin's feet, it took them nearly half an hour to finish the tour.
According to Mingyuan, this area is filled with various foreign-style buildings newly built in recent years. In addition to the Thai Buddhist Temple Garden they just saw, there are also temples from other countries.
So in the following period, Ye Junze and Lin Xin, under the leadership of Mingyuan, visited places such as the Indian Buddhist Temple Garden, the Myanmar Buddhist Pagoda Garden, and the Sri Lankan Garden.
After they visited all these places completely, the time was approaching evening, and the sky was gradually getting dark.
By now, it's time to eat. There happened to be dinner at White Horse Temple, so Mingyuan warmly invited Ye Junze and Lin Xin to stay for dinner together.
It's just that they have some vegetarian food here. If the two of them don't dislike it, they can stay and eat together.
Seeing Master Mingyuan's warm invitation, Ye Junze and Lin Xin couldn't help but look at each other. The two communicated silently with their eyes, and then nodded slightly, having made a decision.
I just heard Lin Xin say with a smile: "Since Master Mingyuan said so, we are not polite." After eating big fish and meat for such a long time, it is not bad to have a vegetarian meal occasionally to shave oil.
Upon hearing this, Mingyuan waved his hand gently and responded in a gentle tone: "No need to be polite, the two donors can just be more casual."
"Then I will take the two donors to the dining hall for dinner." Mingyuan said, turned around and walked slowly forward.
Seeing this, Ye Junze and Lin Xin quickly followed his footsteps. It’s a new month again. Happy June to everyone!
