Visited Chongming Temple again.

Chongming Temple, originally known as Langgu Temple, is located 15 kilometers southeast of Gaoping City, Jincheng City, Shanxi Province, at the eastern foot of Shengfo Mountain. Chongming Temple was founded during the Kaibao period of the Northern Song Dynasty (968-975). It was rebuilt in the sixth year of the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty (1826). In 1999, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage invested 500,000 yuan to carry out a major overhaul of the Zhongfo Hall. The Zhongfo Hall, which has experienced thousands of years of vicissitudes, is a precious historical and cultural heritage in ancient Chinese architecture. This building is a relic of the Song Dynasty, but in terms of architectural style, many places follow the Tang style, and the structure is peculiar, with high architectural artistic value. There is a pair of "broken beams" in the hall, which are docked with two small beams of the same diameter and length. The broken beams are supported by Shunfu strings under the middle seam, and the two ends are placed on the back of the front and rear eaves pillars. The roof gravity is balanced on the front and rear eaves pillars. On June 25, 2001, Chongming Temple was announced by the State Council of the People's Republic of China as the fifth batch of national key cultural relics protection units. Free visit...
