This week our au pairs in Beijing have visited the Beijing Baipu Temple,an ancient temple of Liao Dynasty with a history of more than 900 years.
The drive to the temple, though picturesque, was somewhat perilous, with the only access being a narrow road that passes through the mountains. On the final approach to Baipu, the cliffs on either side of the road are adorned with dozens of golden Buddha statues, secured to the rock face at almost impossible angles.
Beijing Baipu Temple was built in the Liao Dynasty and is named after two waterfalls on the back. Here, the temple has a long history of ancient trees, terraced fields, numerous fruit trees, beautiful natural environment, and a quiet and unique environment of the temple. The temple coexists with Buddhism and Taoism. It is an ancient temple in the Liao Dynasty with a history of more than 900 years. The tower is 10 meters high and has a solid hexagon. The tower shape is a rare and precious type of tower in China and a masterpiece among the dense eaves towers of the Jin Dynasty.
