Tianwang Temple

Tianmen Mountain Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty as a center of Buddhism in the area of western Hunman. The present Tianmen Mountain Temple was rebuilt on the basis of the original site with a plot area of more than 10,000 sqm. It adopts an official style of the Qing Dynasty and the building in the temple compare well with the famous classical houses at home. The temple is located in the mountain hollow with a broad vision. If one gazes into the southeast, all the hills seem t be so small that the temple is really like an overlord.(quoted from a tourist guidebook)

I see the color painting on the pillars, roof edges and wall of temple is more flamboyant than that of Korean buddhist temples.
