Lama Temple Holidays

This exceptional temple is a glittering attraction in Beijing’s Buddhist firmament.

If you only have time for one temple make it the Lama Temple. You have riveting roofs, fabulous frescoes, magnificent decorative arches, tapestries, eye-popping carpentry, Tibetan prayer wheels, tantric statues and a superb pair of Chinese lions with a dense cloud of incense.
 
The Lama Temple is the most renowned Tibetan Buddhist temple outside the historic lands of Tibet. The temple was converted to a lamasery in 1744 after serving as the former residence of Emperor Yong Zheng. 
 
Today the temple is an active place of worship, attracting pilgrims from afar, some of whom prostrate themselves in submission at full length within its halls.
 
With so many spectacular rooms to choose from, it’s easy to see why so many people flock to see this attraction. You have the Hall of Heavenly Kings, The Hall of Harmony, The Hall of Everlasting Protection, The Hall of the Wheel of the Law and the Pavilion of Ten Thousand Happiness to name a few. All these halls are packed full of exceptional monuments and cultural importance. 
 
There are about 70 lamas living in the temple. For a small donation to the temple, you can even ask the lamas to bless things for you - something like a jade pendant perhaps?
