Datong Tour·Hunyuan Yongan Temple.

Yong'an Temple was built in the Jin Dynasty. The current main hall is a Yuan Dynasty building. The main hall of the temple retains the Yuan Dynasty murals, wooden structures (bucket arches, eaves), caissons and Yuan Dynasty calligraphy fonts. The mysterious and wild murals of the ten Ming kings of Ming Dynasty esotericism in Yong'an Zen Temple have almost become a symbol of Hunyuan with their shocking shapes. The main hall uses yellow glazed tiles with Shanxi characteristics and a green glazed roof. A similar style can also be seen in the ancient buildings in Jiexiu, Shanxi. In ancient times, yellow was used by the royal family, so some experts speculate that Yong'an Temple was originally a royal building. The decorations on the eaves are very rich in auspicious animals, and you can feel the evolution of ancient Chinese architecture. The building uses the column reduction method, thus retaining more space. Above the main hall, the Tiangong pavilion decoration supported by large pillars and the algae-green caisson of the Yuan Dynasty are preserved, which looks simple and natural. The east and west sides of the main hall are the Water and Land Dharma Assembly of the Ming Dynasty. Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism were integrated into one hall. The picture is divided into three floors: upper, middle and lower, with characters in different postures. It can be said that he is a master of religious paintings. In the main hall in the north are the ten great kings of Tibetan Tantric Buddhism (the incarnation of the Buddha's anger and the three poisons that shock the three realms). The characters tore off the painting to reveal a compassionate face. This is the only one in the temple where the true face of the Buddha can be seen. During the Yuan Dynasty, ethnic groups merged and became more open to religion. It can be said that Yong'an Temple is no longer a religious place. It has both the statue of King Ming of Esoteric Buddhism, Confucianism and Confucianism, and even the tablet of the Jade Emperor written on the glazed ridge in the middle of the roof, "The true ruler of all spirits in the ten directions and the three realms of heaven and earth."
