Puning Temple | The largest Tibetan Buddhist temple in the north

🌈Attraction Features: 1. Puning Temple (Big Buddha Temple), established during the Qianlong period, is a temple complex with a unique style that combines both Han Chinese Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism. The architectural style is divided by the Mahavira Hall, with the front half being in the Han style and the back half in the Tibetan style. Especially the latter half gives the feeling of stepping into the 'Potala Palace', which is so layered! 2. Inside the main hall of the temple, there is an extremely tall statue of the 'Thousand-Handed Thousand-Eyed Guanyin Bodhisattva', which stands about 27 meters tall and is the world's largest statue of the Thousand-Handed Guanyin.
