Baojue Temple Introduction
The temple is most famous for its three buildings: the You'ai Bell Tower, the Seven Treasures Pagoda, and the statue of the Maitreya Buddha. The full-body statue of Maitreya, which stands seven stories tall, serves as the most prominent landmark of Baojue Temple and has become one of the main spots for visitors to stop and take photos. In front of the giant Buddha, there is a garden square also called Tongxin Park, where many small Happy Buddhas are displayed in various postures, either reclining or sitting. The square also features a coal transport locomotive from 80 years ago, adding a touch of history. Atop the You'ai Bell Tower is a large bell weighing 1,000 jin, gifted by the Japanese. Additionally, there is a memorial space in front of the Ksitigarbha Hall, attracting numerous Japanese tourists each year.
