Dazhao Wuliang Temple｜Experience 500 years of 'Temple Culture'

Dazhao Temple is a large Tibetan Buddhist temple in the southern part of Yuyuan District, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, China, belonging to the Gelug sect. The 'Zhao' in Dazhao Temple means temple in Tibetan. The original Chinese name was 'Hongci Temple', which was later changed to 'Wuliang Temple'. Because there is a silver Buddha enshrined in the temple, it is also called 'Silver Buddha Temple'. Dazhao Temple is the earliest built Yellow Sect temple in Hohhot and has a wide influence in the Mongolian region. It was founded by Altan Khan, the leader of the Tumote tribe in the Ming Dynasty. Built in 1580 AD, it is the earliest Lamaist temple built in Hohhot and one of the few temples in Mongolia that does not have a living Buddha. Dazhao is not only a Buddhist holy land, but also a famous tourist attraction at home and abroad. The magnificent temple architecture, precious cultural relics and artworks, as well as the mysterious Cham dance and Buddhist music, constitute the unique 'Temple Culture' of Dazhao. 🎫Ticket: 35r/person, children 17r/person.
