Even if you think Pingyao insight into the stunning scenery of the Jinzhong do? Once peaceful simplicity of folk customs in the tourist influx has long been a matter of fact when they were trampled to pieces, too much temptation of money, can lead people to lose their ability to judge and reason. I am disappointed to come out from the city, the city can still feel the eyes of the people in my glance behind. Too thorough tourists dressed like a wolf will make them smell like bloody excited, and they face burnout lazy to put up a face hidden in the collar, the only showing two eyes, to look at the financial strength and from passing through.
However, as mentioned in the old saying "a way out," Do not swim in the city left a sigh of regret, 6,7 km away from the bridge in Pingyao, but the village, there is one about the Shuang Lin Temple was built in Northern Qi Dynasty. The so-called its winding, the taxi companies to 10 minutes, but then stopped in front of a temple. Blue wall, in the gloomy sky seemed quiet, began to feel the momentum into the entrance of the majestic, and the entire layout of the temple building three three regions along the central axis is located in the 3 Jinyuan Luo, well-structured and solemn.
Into the arch-shaped entrance, just north of the first Hall of Heavenly King Hall, the entire hall columns entirely by the whole root diameter of about 1 meter of logs supported. Although the temple here is the history of storms has been ages since repairs can no longer be said Wei-Jin era building, but the structure still follows the style of the time. Wei Jin building should be said that in the history of Chinese architecture has a heavy sum of the Han dynasty when the Zen came to the throne after another turn on without a break, times of hardship, so the surgery was difficult for the civil compared to the Han Dynasty. But it is such a historical impact, making the people have always focussed on religion, Buddhism, prosperity followed up, art and architecture at this time due to religious reasons has been a successful convergence, burst out of the brilliant spark. Construction began to beam as the main load-bearing structure, the wall of the building is only one partition for the role, there is no load-bearing function. Pavilions are followed changes in the structure of this product. And as the roof support, power concentrated in the beams above, in order to enhance the beam distortion strength and shear stress, layer upon layer of diminishing brackets appeared. Both decorative features, but also unique mechanical ingenuity. In fact, think carefully, but the high-rise buildings in recent years, we as a re-emphasis on the construction of the main pillars supporting the design, the wall has pulled out of the stage it had the burden.
Pull farther back to Heavenly King Hall, there is no time to embark on the stone steps to see King Kong in the four plastic Yan Xia, each statue is about third year meters, lined up. Dianmen about the two, eco-diverse, but no traditional statue of the ferocious face, they are powerful and dignified and elegant. While a damaged elbow, like the Department of King Kong can be seen, when the wood cemented with iron bars molded into the body such as kings, artisans have given their human aura, arm dance between the streamers, the vivid gestures, people feel that they have a sense of intimacy with the human warrior, but also has "force Nukiyama Come gas unrivaled" in Yingwu spirit. Four King's eyes Jiongjiong Shenghui No matter which corner of the temple, if the line of sight, and King's eyes meet, you'll find that it is watching your every move.
Through the Heavenly King Hall, is located north of the Buddha Hall. Shuang Lin Temple's buildings have little colorful repairs, mottled red paint the door to the winter sun lazy, weak to dropping the prayer hall, the windows Leng and shadow walls of iron fence in front of all to live, but the inside is painted sculpture relief We have not refused to thousands of miles away. Shuang Lin Temple is the relief of a major feature of Buddha stories carved into the wood rosy clouds, the Buddhist story of the background, detailed to the days of door Langyan are clearly visible. Soft colors and statues mostly oblique tilting forward, look up at the time, will feel a cloud with the gods come, feel, delight. Which Sakyamuni Buddha monk, to Nirvana in the Tianzhu Bati side of the river between the Sha Lo Doubletree detailed relief work. According to Buddhist sutras, Buddhist Ershi under the Doubletree, head north west, You Xie's clothes, passed away to heaven, Doubletree Dayton four sides with the white blossoms, known as "double-forest into destroy." The Shuang Lin Temple hence the name.
East Qianfo Dian, for hanging mountain-style architecture, instructions from the ancestral temple Goddess of Mercy statue itself has come to a painted sculpture of the highest level. As noted above, Shuang Lin Temple statue of the gods begin with human-shaped gods, and stately rooms exude a more compassionate stance. Guanyin of natural drooping left leg, right leg as squatting, easy to ride in the right leg on the right hand, head slightly left, eyes light enjoyable, quiet charm. Smooth fine lines dress garment, as if bathed in a quiet natural Guanyin session in the public compassion. It is rare in the Chinese Buddhist Goddess of Mercy statue sitting, there is no lotus seat of the Goddess of Mercy, as the world is an altar, kind, intelligent, enchant all sentient beings. Goddess of Mercy itself under the Skanda servo Feng, Qian Fodian Skanda like included in the UNESCO world cultural treasures. All less than 1 meter high statue, which exaggerated the performance of deformed body strength, a high degree of lifelike facial expressions. Although people want to imitate his stance felt very awkward and not real, but the statue to minor changes in the proportion of Skanda's body, making his body like a full bow, ready to go, very expressive. Neck twisted pairs of open eyes staring contests, body linger streamer fly, a highly elastic, and sense of movement.
Winter season, Pingyao Kiu Tau Tsuen, pure calm, we have a seat and leave the arrival of people do not have such a quiet break. Shiji Li away of Pingyao Ancient City is still noisy bustle did not know that not far from the Buddha on watching.
