At that time, it was called "asokang Temple" (or "wuyouwang Temple"). In the Sui Dynasty, the Buddhist temples were changed into Daochang, and the asokang temple was changed into Chengshi temple. The Tang Dynasty was the heyday of Famen Temple. With its prominent position as a royal temple, it held seven grand activities to welcome the Buddha bones, which had a profound impact on Buddhism and politics in the Tang Dynasty. In the early Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan, Emperor Gaozong, changed his name to "Famen Temple". In the second year of Wude (619), Li Shimin, king of Qin, spent 80 monks in Famen Temple. Huiye, a monk of Baochang temple, was the first abbot of Famen Temple. During the reign of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty, Ayu king tower was rebuilt into a four level wooden tower. In the third year of zongdali (768), the Tang Dynasty was renamed "the real body pagoda of protecting the country".

There are more and more halls and pavilions in the temple, more and more magnificent pagodas, and more and more extensive areas. Finally, a grand temple with 24 courtyards was formed.

Famen Temple is located in Fufeng County, Shaanxi Province, 120 kilometers west of Xian city. Famen Temple is the countrys leadingBuddhist holy land. It has been widely worshiped by tourists since its completion. It was built in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and has a history of more than 1700 years. It flourished in the northern Wei Dynasty and flourished in the Tang Dynasty. It is a beautiful holy land Holy Scripture with the real body of Sakyamuni Buddha The phalanx relic makes Famen Temple have an irreplaceable position in the world religious circles.Famen Temple was built on pagodas. Famen Temple Pagoda, also known as the "true body pagoda", is named after Sakyamunis finger bone. Now we can see that the door we just came in is called "Shanmen", also called "Sanmen", also called "sanjiemen", because the previous temples were built on the mountain, because they were called "Shanmen". The left and right sides are wuxiangmen and wuzumen respectively, and the middle is the empty door. We generally call monks entering the empty door, which probably comes from it.Now we are standing here is the front hall of Famen Temple. In the main hall, the Buddha of bhiluzana, the Dharma Buddha of Sakyamuni, is provided. On both sides are Manjusri Bodhisattva and Puxian Bodhisattva. On both sides of the main hall, there areeighteen Arhats, so the front hall is also called the bronze Buddha Hall.We can burn incense and worship Buddha here, and then we have to walk clockwise along the corridor. If we walk counterclockwise, it means going against the sky.Now we come to the real pagoda of Famen Temple, but what we see is that it was rebuilt in 1987. Famen Temple is famous for its placement in the phalanx relic of Sakyamuni Buddha since ancient times. It is also because the relic built the pagoda. It is recorded in the Buddha Hall that in 485 B.C., Sakyamuni was destroyed, and Ashoka king of the Peacock Dynasty of India converted to Buddhism It was divided into 84000 pieces, distributed all over the world, and built 84000 towers. There are 19 Buddhist relic pagodas in China, among which Famen Temple Pagoda is the fifth. Therefore, the original Famen Temple was called asokang temple. Later, it was renamed Famen Temple in the seventh year of Wude, Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty. It is still in use today. It is also known as the "ancestor of Guanzhong Pagoda Temple".Famen Temple was first built in the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong rebuilt a four level wooden pagoda here to support the Buddha finger relic. The woodenpagoda built in the Tang Dynasty collapsed in the Longqing period of the Ming Dynasty. In the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, a 13 story brick pagoda with eight edges was rebuilt by the monk Huayuan of Famen Temple, but half of it collapsed in 1981. In 1985, the local government rebuilt the pagoda in order to rebuild it In 1987, when the foundation of the tower was cleaned up for reconstruction, the underground palace was unexpectedly discovered. Four Sakyamuni Buddha finger relics and 2499 Royal treasures of the Tang Dynasty were unearthed. Famen Temple has become the focus of attention all over the world overnight. Now lets go to the underground palace to worship the Buddha finger relic.At present, the total length of the underground palace of Famen Temple is 21.2 meters, with an area of 31.84 square meters. It is the largest pagoda underground palace discovered in China so far. The four Buddha bones found in the underground palace are the most eye-catching. The third one is the spirit bone, which is the real finger bone of the Buddha. The other three are the shadow bones. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty ordered people to imitate them with white marble in order to prevent the tomb robbers from stealing them. But in the eyes of Buddhists, the shadow bone is also the holy bone, which has the same meaning as the shadow bone.After visiting the underground palace of Famen Temple, we came to the main hall of Famen Temple, which is the honorific name for Sakyamuni. It was opened in 1994. It is dedicated to the five Buddhas of the tantric sect of BuddhismIt represents five directions, East, West, North and south. They are Bukong achievement, Amitabha, eight day Tathagata, Baosheng Buddha and achu Buddha. Next to them are 20 groups of heaven, representing the 24 heavenly gods in the sky. We can also burn incense and worship Buddha here.Now we come to the display of treasures of the Tang Dynasty. There are 44 national treasure level cultural relics and 99 first-class cultural relics. It is one of the 88 museums in Shaanxi Province, which has the largest proportion of Chinas treasure level cultural relics. The first thing we see is a stone tablet, which is a material account tablet. It records in detail the name, size and size of the treasures in the underground palace. It is a national treasure level cultural relic.In addition, the silk fabrics in Tang Dynasty are also very precious. Among them, the most complete one is cluster gold embroidery, which means contraction. This kind of fabric is called cluster gold embroidery, which is formed by the pattern of flowerson the gold silk plate and then fixed on the silk. The embroidery skirt worshipped by Wu Zetian was made of this kind of fabric.Among these things, the most precious cultural relic is the gold-plated double closed 12 ring stick, which is called tin. In fact, it is not made of tin, but it will make a sound when shaking the ring. It is named after the sound. There are also differences in the level of the staff. What we see now belongs to the king of the worlds staff. The staff is 1.96 meters long and weighs 2390 grams. It is made of two taels of gold and 58 taels of silver. The staff has four drums. Each drum is covered with three rings, four drums and 12 rings. The four drums and 12 rings represent the highest level of magic power in Buddhism - Sidi 12 karma, So its mana is the highest. Only Sakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism, is qualified to hold this kind of staff, so it is the king of the worlds staff.Besides, we can also see some utensils dedicated to the Buddhas finger relic. The most precious one is the gold-plated real Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva is covered with pearls, and has a lotus leaf shaped tray in his hand. On the tray is a pure gold plaque with words. It is proved that it is a 39 year old birthday gift from a monk named Chengyi to Li Cui, Yizong of Tang Dynasty. The reason why it is precious is that this Bodhisattva also completed an important。
