A very rare temple in Hangzhou, Huiyin Goryeo Temple by the West Lake

Today I want to share with you a Super niche near West Lake in Hangzhou But the temple is so beautiful that it leaves you speechless - Huiyin Goryeo Temple. It is like a pearl lost in a bustling city. Quiet and full of charm. Temple History Huiyin Goryeo Temple has a profound historical heritage. It was first built in the Later Tang Dynasty and played an important role in the Buddhist exchanges between the Northern Song Dynasty and Goryeo (now the Korean Peninsula). It is said that monks from Goryeo came here from afar to study, making this temple an important bridge for cultural exchange. Walking into the temple, you can seem to see the collision and fusion of cultures thousands of years ago. Temple environment The first thing you feel when you enter the temple is tranquility. There is none of the hustle and bustle of other popular temples here, only towering ancient trees, pavilions, and the sound of gurgling water. The architectural style of the temple is simple and elegant, with flying eaves, brackets, carved beams and painted buildings. Every detail reveals the ingenuity of the ancients. There are also large lawns and exquisite gardens. There is a new scene at every step, and every shot is a blockbuster. Temple Features The most unique thing about Huiin Goryeo Temple is that it combines the architectural styles and Buddhist culture of China and South Korea. The Buddha statues in the temple have exquisite shapes, smooth lines and a unique artistic style. In addition, the prayer flags in the temple fluttered in the breeze, making rustling sounds, as if telling ancient stories.
