No. 126: Guangzong Temple, Wutai Shan, Shanxi

(This article was published in the Shenzhen Daily on April 6, 2015.)

The pretty little main hall at Guangzong Temple (广宗寺), Wutai Shan, Shanxi (山西, 五台山)

August 27, 2012 - The next stopping-place reached on my ascent was Guangzong ("Wide Sect" or perhaps "Spreading the Teachings") Temple. Passing between the stone lions and through the usual heavenly Kings' Hall, I enter a courtyard which was fairly small by Wutai's standards.
