China's largest Buddhist temple - Nanhai Zen Temple

Nanhai Zen Temple is located in the southeast corner of Runan County, Henan Province. Covering an area of ??more than 300 acres, it is magnificent and has numerous projects. The main building, the Main Hall, is a square with a side length of 80 meters. It exceeds the size of the Taihe Hall in the Forbidden City and the Dacheng Hall of Confucius Mansion in Qufu, Shandong, and is known as the "No. 1 Hall in Asia." The four side halls of the King of Heaven, Guanyin, Manjusri and Samantabhadra are tall and majestic with triple cornices, comparable to similar buildings in existing Buddhist holy places across the country.

The Nanhai Zen Temple Shanmenpai Tower is 50 meters long and 31 meters high. On the 500-meter-long and 20-meter-wide corridor inside the mountain gate, there are 12 granite archways built from north to south according to the 12 marriages, 12 zodiac animals, and 12 Bodhisattvas. They are unique in style and majestic. The White Saint Elder's Relic Pagoda in the northeast of Nanhai Zen Temple combines ancient Chinese architectural art with Southeast Asian modern architectural art styles. It is tall and majestic, elegant and unique. The granite 500 Arhats carved on the platform of the Main Hall are the essence of more than 20 Arhat halls across the country. Excellent carving craftsmen gathered together to create elaborate sculptures with unique styles. The sutra storage building in the courtyard has a unique design. The building houses various versions of Buddhist classics from ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad.
