Beichan Temple
 Also
known as Tuloushan, Beichan Temple is located on the North Hill in Xining.
A Taoist temple, Beichan was first built during the Northern Wei period
(386-534) on the hillside, topping dangerous rocks and bottoming a deep
valley. The red crags on the hillside have been eroded, shaping like
a Buddha. In the temple, there are nine grottoes and 18 caves, with
painted patterns of sunk panels, murals, and statues of Buddha. The
architectural structure of the two-story main building is unique and
exquisite. The cable car at the foot leads to the top of the hill, where
people can enjoy a panoramic view of the city of Xining. |
