Life advice: You must come to Qinghai (Ta'er Temple)

🌴Although it cannot be compared with the Potala Palace, the Ta'er Monastery has become one of the most sacred places in the world. As the activity center of Tibetan Buddhism in the northwest, it attracts believers from all over the world to come and worship every year. [Beg] The buildings of Ta'er Monastery are undulating, integrating Tibetan, Han and Sanskrit architectural styles. The temple is rich in cultural relics, including various ritual instruments, Buddha statues of various shapes and forms, and vast Buddhist scriptures and inscriptions in Tibetan, Mongolian and Manchu. It is a treasure house of Buddhist art. 🏞The temple is backed by snow-capped mountains, faces the lake, and is surrounded by vast grasslands, forming a spectacular natural landscape. Here, religious beliefs and natural beauty are perfectly integrated, which is refreshing. [Beg] 📚I saw the three wonders of the temple in the books: murals, pile embroidery, and butter sculptures. Any one of them is worth a visit [Tiptop]
