Introduction to Tangshan Temple: Tangshan Temple was originally a royal temple during the Tang Dynasty. It was first built in the Sui and Tang Dynasties and has been built many times in ancient and modern times. Nowadays, the newly renovated temples strictly adhere to the principle of "repairing the old to look like the old". The mountain gate still maintains the original stone arch style. On both sides are the two Buddhist door gods "Xiha" unique to the Tang Dynasty, who ward off evil spirits. The stone arch is engraved with the "giving bat pattern", and the side square of the doorway is engraved with " "Auspicious Elephant Pattern", and the base plate of the side square has the original carving "Rui Lian Pattern" left over from ancient times. The meaning of the entire door opening is that the lotus holds auspicious blessings and welcomes guests.
