The main buildings of the imperial palace

On the hillside behind the main building complex of Congress Temple, among the lush pine forests, there is a stone pavilion with double eaves and upturned corners. The forehead of the pavilion has the words "Fa Ru Qian Qiu" in gold, and three rectangular stone tablets are arranged in the pavilion.

The monument in the middle is "Yang Song of a wise master on the rooftop", which is 0.86m high, 0.86m wide,1.86m long, 2.6m high,1.26m wide and 0.1.0m thick. Long inscriptions and poems praise the founder and wise master of Tiantai Sect of Buddhism. You Lian tablet is "the most sincere master poem tablet given by the owner after the house is full of popularity". The monument is slightly lower than the monument to the wise. The monument on the left is "The Monument of Defarge in the Qing Master's Tiantai", which is the same size as the Manchu Monument. On the back of the Three Monuments is "Salute to White" written by Yamada of Japan in May 1982. Japanese people have remembered the virtue of Gaozu and prayed for the sincerity of friendship between China and Japan forever. On the left side of the pavilion of "Fa Ru Qian Qiu", there is a Gu Quan surrounded by a stone fence, engraved with the words "Zhang Xi Chun". It is said that Pu Ming, a monk in the Song Dynasty, once meditated here. Because it is inconvenient to get water from the temple, I said to Zhang Xi, "There should be spring water here!" " That is, there are springs spewing out, hence the name.

There is a Liang Meiwei on the right side of Ursa Major, which was planted by Master Zhang An, the fifth ancestor of Tiantai Sect in Sui Dynasty. According to research, Liang Meiwei has a history of 1300 years, and it is one of the three oldest plum trees in China. About its legend, the modern poet Deng Tuo's poem "Mei" is the most vivid: cutting the first branch of the east wind and sitting on a poem with a half curtain. I don't need pink and green. I still remember when I met you on the rooftop. Sui Tower is located 6 miles northeast of Tiantai Chengguan Town. In the eighteenth year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty, the King of Jin was protected by a bodhisattva and built a tower of gratitude for his master. Tang Huichang's method is not easy to be damaged, and it was repaired in the second year of Jianyan in the Southern Song Dynasty (1 128). With a residual height of 59.4 meters and a side length of 4.6 meters, it is one of the tallest ancient pagodas in Zhejiang. It is a hollow pavilion-style brick-wood structure, with cornices and arches destroyed by fire, and cavities are formed around it.

Later generations reinforced the tower foundation and paved steps around it. Now it has been repaired and listed as a provincial cultural protection unit. The architecture of Sui Tower is unique. There is no usual spire at the top of the tower except the brick tower wall and the carved Buddha statue. Standing in the tower, you can see the blue sky directly. The abbot building is located in the center of the eastern part of the parliament temple complex. This is a two-story house with seven rooms. In front is Juxian Hall (where monks eat), and behind it is Yingbin Tower (Temple Hotel). There is a yard paved with stones in front of the building.

There are three square tables in the center of the abbot building, with three rows of wooden chairs and square stools on each side. On the desktop, there is a red gold plaque of "Hong Yu Tiantai Sect", and the ink paintings of famous painters such as Yu Shao and Wang Ziwu are arranged on the forehead. There are some famous calligraphy and paintings hanging next to it, which is the place where Xiaoguo Temple receives Chinese and foreign guests. Adjacent to Zhangxiquan, there is a newly-built double-eaved inclined arch Guanyin Hall, which stands behind and above Daxiong Hall. Guanyin Temple is about15m long and12m wide. There is a golden Guanyin statue with thousands of hands and eyes in the center of the hall, with 32 Guanyin incarnations standing or sitting on both sides.

This hall was built with the donation of150,000 yuan from Xia Jingshan, Mr. Yang Maoci and Ms. Wu Meiying. 1October 29th, 1983, 10, held a grand opening ceremony and ceremony. The tower of gratitude is adjacent to Kannonji in the west. Built in September, 1985, about 3 meters high. The top of the pagoda is a brass dome, covered with red copper tiles, shining in the sun, and the tower body is a rock. It is square, with the inscription "Lotus Flower Sutra (Rilian)" in Japanese right in front, and the scriptures with gold characters on black background embedded on the other three sides. Abutment is also paved with recorded rocks.

This classic building was built with a donation of 6,543,800,000 yen from Japanese Lianzong believers. The pagoda was built in the National Assembly Temple in Tiantai Mountain, because Tiantai Mountain is the most prosperous and miraculous place where missionary masters (the most sincere among Japanese monks) once studied. Japanese monks worship Tiantai Sect (the master of the wise) very much, and firmly believe that the origin of Hokkekyo, as a Buddhism, is Tiantai Sect, to show the profound meaning of "gratitude for gratitude". The Seven Pagodas in front of Hanshi Pavilion, commonly known as the "Seven Pagodas" and also known as the Welcome Pagoda, were built to commemorate "seven buddha's past". They are: Vishamen Heavenly Corpse Buddha, Discarded Corpse Buddha, Vishamen Heavenly Floating Buddha, Sun stranded Buddha, Monahan stranded Buddha, Kaye Buddha and Sakyamuni Buddha. It was built in front of the temple, because it was the place where seven buddha was worshipped in the past. The seven pagodas built in the Sui and Tang Dynasties no longer exist. The Seven Pagodas were rebuilt on the old site by 1973. The Seven Pagodas we saw only have a history of more than 30 years. There is no written explanation next to the newly-built Seven Towers.

The biggest difference between the new seven towers and the old seven towers is that the new seven towers are solid while the old seven towers are hollow. Above the Seven Towers, you can see thich nhat hanh's tomb. On the left side of Daxiong Hall, Miaofa Hall is a two-story five-bay pavilion. There are lush plantains and sweet-scented osmanthus in front of the hall, and the environment is very quiet. Above the Temple of Magical Method is the Sutra Pavilion, which is open and clear. There are hundreds of wooden boxes arranged in the pavilion, and books such as Lotus Sutra and Tripitaka Sutra are treasured. Downstairs is the "Taizong Lecture Hall", where the teachings of Tiantai Sect are preached. The center of its layout is a carefully carved lecture platform, with an ink painting of Amitabha hanging behind the seat and a sweetmeats futon in front. There are dozens of long tables on both sides of the lecture. Whenever there is a lecture, the lecturer stands on the stage, and there are monks, old and young, men and women and believers on both sides of the lecture. On the left side of Miaofa Hall is Luohan Hall, which is now turned into a cultural relic room. During the period of 1975, the cultural relics room was renovated and opened, focusing on the ancestral statues of Tiantai Sect of Buddhism, the main classic works of Tiantai Sect, and the friendly exchanges between Xiaoguo Temple and Japanese Buddhist circles. The relics of the wise master, the clothes of the dragon, the beautifully shaped silver pavilion, the white jade reclining Buddha, and the bronze mirror of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. In the 20th year of Tang Zhenyuan (804), when Japanese monks first entered Tang Qiufa, they had a "passport" with instructions from Taizhou secretariat. During the period of 1979, the abbot of Xiaoguo Temple only felt that he was visiting Japan with a Buddhist delegation from China, and was welcomed by people in the ruling and opposition circles in Japan. Cultural relics and souvenirs brought back by the abbot from Japan are also on display here. Japanese friends visit Tiantai Mountain all year round, leaving behind calligraphy and paintings, utensils and cultural relics, such as "the sun, the moon and the sky are eternal, and the ancient feelings are deep."
