The Maitreya Buddha is enshrined in the hall, which is a wood carving with gold. On both sides of the hall are the four heavenly kings with exquisite clay sculptures and paintings. On both sides of the altar in the hall are a pair of ancient bronze incense burners, which were used by the imperial palace during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. They are unique in appearance and exquisite in workmanship. They were given by the Empress Dowager Xiaoshengxian, the mother of Emperor Qianlong.

The Buddha is 26 meters tall, 18 meters above ground and 8 meters underground, with a diameter of 8 meters.

Review for: 9:30場次
The tour guide, Mr. Feng, gave a very good explanation for 2 hours without interruption. Although the Lama Temple was crowded on holidays, Mr. Feng still introduced each place very seriously and taught how to worship Buddha. It is worth participating.
