Chengde Mountain Resort (Chinese: 承德避暑山庄; Manchu: Halhūn be jailara gurung) is a large complex of imperial palaces and gardens situated in the Shuangqiao District of Chengde in northeastern Hebei province, northern China, about 225 kilometres (140 mi) northeast of China's capital Beijing.
Mount Putuo has been a pilgrimage site for over a thousand years. [2] [3] After the Tang dynasty, Mount Putuo became a center of Guanyin worship. [4]Traditionally there were three main temples: the Puji Temple (普濟寺, founded in 10th century), the Fayu Temple (法雨寺, founded 1580 CE), and the Huiji Temple (慧濟寺, founded 1793 CE).
Accommodations are located at the two sides. Some of the greatest examples of this come from the 18th-century Puning Temple and Putuo Zongcheng Temple. Buddhist monasteries sometimes also have pagodas, which may house relics of the Gautama Buddha; older pagodas tend to be four-sided, while later pagodas usually have eight sides.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, it was the major banking centre of the country. In addition to the old city centre, two temples are listed as well, the Zhenguo Temple and the Shuanglin Temple. Both are important due of their architecture and art collections. [23] Classical Gardens of Suzhou: Jiangsu: 1997 813bis i, ii, iii, iv, v (cultural)
