Compared to the famous Shaolin Temple Main Monastery, Chuzu An, located on the back mountain of Shaolin Temple, is much quieter. Not only are there fewer tourists, but it often appears as a "supporting role" in various architectural lists.
In the national key cultural relics protection unit directory, "Chuzu An and Shaolin Temple Pagoda Forest" is listed as one project. Among the 8 sites and 11 historical buildings in the world heritage "Historic Monuments of Dengfeng in the Center of Heaven and Earth," Chuzu An, the Pagoda Forest, and the Main Monastery are combined as the Shaolin Temple architectural complex.
But this does not affect Chuzu An's status in the history of ancient architecture, because there is a main hall in the temple👍
