Daguangming Temple.

On the way from Huangtao Observation Deck to Bingling Temple, I came across a magnificent but deserted temple. I parked the car and took photos and entered the gate. I immediately saw an old lady and a young man coming from different directions. I instinctively thought that it was not open and came to drive me away, but when I came to the front, I was warmly welcomed to visit and took the initiative to explain. The main hall in the middle enshrines three Buddhas. The doors in the middle and the right are closed. Only the hall on the far left enshrines the founder of the Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism, Tsongkhapa. The door is open. There are many cushions for believers to worship in front of the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue is solemn and dare not enter. The two pavilions on both sides of the main hall were suspended due to insufficient funds. The main structure was completed, and the corners and eaves looked very imposing. On the platform on the right side of the main hall, there is a glass-covered wooden wheel car with complicated decorations. The young man in the hall explained that when Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, she was stationed here. The car was built according to the style of the year. Later, when I checked the map, the current driving route from Xi'an to Xining does not pass through Linxia. Maybe the route nearly 1,500 years ago was slightly different!
