Dule Temple.

Dule Temple, commonly known as the Great Buddha Temple, is located on West Street in Jizhou District, Tianjin. Legend has it that An Lushan rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and swore an oath here. He wanted to be emperor, "to enjoy himself alone and not share the joy with the people," hence the name of the temple. The ancient temple was built in the 10th year of the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty and rebuilt in the 2nd year of the Tonghe era of the Liao Dynasty (984 AD). It is one of the only three remaining Liao Dynasty temples in China and was among the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units announced by the State Council in 1961. It is also one of the Ten Scenic Spots of Tianjin. Dule Temple has been included in the tentative list of World Heritage Sites.
