What are the Chinese and foreign influences of temples?
The northern monk of Wutai Mountain is not only famous in China, but also influential abroad. The Jintang (equivalent to the Ursa Major Hall) in the Tang Zhao Temple in Nara, Japan was built according to the form of Beige Temple. It is said that Jian Zhen, a monk at that time, led China builders to Japan to help them build, so the form was very similar. This also shows that the cultural relationship between China and Japan goes back to ancient times.
