Shandan Big Buddha Temple

The Big Buddha Temple is in the city center. Taking advantage of the gap between the morning and afternoon tours, I will come to visit after dinner at noon. The area is not very large. You can see it in half an hour.

In the west, which is also the popular place of Tibetan Buddhist temples, it can be said that the cultural customs of the temples are similar, but as long as the quiet taste, there are also their differences, representing the diverse cultural exchanges in the west.
