Description: |
|
Chaoyin Nunnery, also called Kwan-yin Hall, covers 3640 square
meters to the east of Lijiapan in Gulu Town. It was set up in
1456 (the 7th year under reign of Jing Tai of the Ming Dynasty),
but burned down in the period of Yong Zheng in the Qing Dynasty.
It was repaired in 1739 (the 4th year of Qian Long of the Qing
Dynasty) and reconstructed in 1803 and 1813 (the 8th year and
the 18th year under reign of Jia Qing of the Qing Dynasty).
However, it was burned down again in 1930 (the 19th year of the
Republic of China). It was rebuilt in 1934 but in 1937 the east
wing-room was shot by the Japanese army and was repaired after
Master Baoang entered the nunnery. It was used as factories and
storehouses after the liberation and many of the constructions
were damaged till it was reconstructed and opened to the
tourists in 1982. Sermon Hall and Baoen (pay a debt of
gratitude) Tower was set up in November 1992. The sermon hall
has two floors with the depositary of Buddhist texts in the
upper floor and the lower floor served as the sermon place
centered by a jade Buddha statue. The Baoen Tower is 51 meters
high and has 7 storeys and tourists standing on the top can have
a full view of the city as well as the East China Sea |
