Ciyun Temple, Sichuan, China | An Ancient Temple Dating from the Tang Dynasty, a Millennium of Silent Guardianship Surrounded by the mountains of Sichuan, stands a venerable ancient temple—Ciyun Temple. Originally built during the Tang Dynasty, it has weathered countless vicissitudes over the past millennium, yet has always protected the people of this region with its incense and bells. The layout of Ciyun Temple retains the ancient charm of the Tang Dynasty. With its sweeping green tiles and eaves, and the towering ancient trees, one senses the solemnity of time as soon as one enters the temple gates. Traces of successive renovations can be seen on the temple walls, and the mottled stone carvings and remaining paintings bear witness to the passage of time. For millennia, the sound of Buddhist chanting has never ceased within the temple. From the heyday of the Tang and Song dynasties to the ravages of war, Ciyun Temple has witnessed the passage of time with its tranquil presence. Pilgrims today can still feel the lingering charm of Tang Dynasty Buddhism, as if worshipping and praying alongside the ancients.

Anren Ancient Town Stone Carvings | The Mark of Time on Stone, the Ingenious Beauty of a Millennium-Old Town Located near Chengdu, Anren Ancient Town is renowned not only for its well-preserved Republican-era architecture but also for the unique charm of the stone carvings that pervade its streets. These carvings, like the town's silent memories, carve history and human sentiments into the stone. Walking along the bluestone-paved streets, stone carvings are everywhere: flowers, birds, and animals on door lintels, opera characters in ancestral halls, stone lions and drums in courtyards... Each one is meticulously crafted, with lines ranging from strong to graceful. These carvings are more than just decoration; they are symbols: prayers for prosperity, wealth, longevity, and happiness, records of family honor, and even expressions of reverence for nature. Anren's stone carvings often bear a strong Bashu style, combining the simplicity and refinement of western Sichuan dwellings. With their chisels, generations of craftsmen have engraved life's joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness, as well as auspicious meanings, into the cold, hard stone. As time goes by, the edges and corners of the stone carvings may have been eroded by wind and rain, but the craftsmanship is still clearly visible.
