The ancient wooden carvings of the Tian Gong Ge Lou in Jincheng are unique and have stood the test of time.

📍Address: Located in Dongnan Village, Jincun Town, 13 km east of Jincheng City 🚗Transportation: Self-driving, navigate directly to Erxian Temple, arrive at a large T-junction, be sure to pay attention to a small road on the left leading to the village, it is easy to miss. 👍️Main Features: Erxian Temple is a unique belief in the southeast of Shanxi, and it is dedicated to two young girls. They were a pair of sisters during the Tang Dynasty, born smart and beautiful, lost their mother in their childhood, and although they were abused by their stepmother, the two girls were still very filial and later became immortals. They often appear in the local area to save people from suffering and difficulties. Unfortunately, what we see today, only five are Song Dynasty sculptures, and the other eleven, including the heads of the two immortals, have been stolen at the end of the last century. There is no historical record of the original appearance, and we can only imagine her style through the gorgeous patterns of the statue's clothes. 🎟️Ticket Information: Free, the cultural relic protection officer is very good, patiently explained, even when we went there at six o'clock, they still accompanied us to watch, and waited for us to finish watching before closing.
