Temple architecture in anrakuji
Anlejiao Temple has a gatehouse and four halls, and houses are connected on both sides. Not only is the building magnificent, but also the east-west cloister, the front and rear rooms, the north and south rooms are symmetrically arranged, and the eaves of the temple, the heads of animals on the roof and the carved kisses are exquisite; The red pillars and beams in the temple are magnificent in weather, heavy in roads and winding in corridors, which is fascinating. From the gate to the ten thousand Buddha building in the back hall, one hall is higher than the other. At first glance, it looks quiet and profound. There are tall splayed walls on both sides of the temple gate. Above the towering gatehouse, there is a white marble stone carving with the four characters "Anlejiao Temple" embedded in the blue background. The brushwork is vigorous and powerful, and it is natural and unrestrained. The Ten Thousand Buddha Buildings are dedicated to the Tibetan King, Bodhisattva and Guanyin with a thousand hands, and there are many large and small Buddha statues. There is a big ceramic bottle on the roof, 2 meters high, shaped like a gourd, with a circumference of seven feet. There are many Buddhist scriptures hidden in the bottle. Because of the high terrain and yellow glaze sauce, this gourd can be seen miles away from the top of the town when the sun shines.
