"Ancient Temple Dule Temple: Witness to History's Glory"

The filming location of Black Wukong is right here! It is one of the only three remaining Liao Dynasty temples in China, and Mr. Liang Sicheng once praised it as a "rare treasure."

The name "Dule" comes from the phrase "thinking of enjoying alone and not enjoying with the people" when An Lushan raised an army; the plaque of Dule Temple was inscribed by Yan Song in the Ming Dynasty.
Must-see attractions in Dule Temple:

1. Guanyin Pavilion
There are clay sculptures of Guanyin and murals here, which are lifelike and amazing. The plaque of "Guanyin Pavilion" is said to be handwritten by Li Bai, adding a mysterious color.
2. Shanmen
The chiwen on the eaves of the Shanmen is the earliest existing chiwen, with a unique shape and exquisite craftsmanship. The Liao Dynasty statues of the two generals inside the gate are majestic and imposing.

Tips: Dule Temple, White Pagoda Temple, Luban Temple, and Confucian Temple have a joint ticket of CNY 40. You need to go to Dule Temple to exchange for a paper ticket before entering each attraction.
