The construction of the Yamen here started in 1303 in Yuan Dynasty, and thepresent buildings were built in Qing Dynasty. It was the most well preservedgovernment office of country level in feudal China. Since our opening up to theoutside world in 1984, it has attracted a number of our government officials andvisitors form both at home and abroad because of its special history, science,attractive value and its own charm. We have the famous saying : Beijing is thedragonhead while the dragon’s tail is in Neixiang. It is also one of theimportant cultural relics of state level.
The front part building of the Yamen was called a screen wall, which wasbuilt with blue brick relief sculpture. In the middle of the screen, there is astrange beast, which is called “Tan”. It was said to be a greedy beast thatcould swallow gold and silver treasures in the legend. Here in the picture wecan see that around it there are treasures everywhere. But he is not satisfied.His mouth opens widely intending to swallow the sun in the sky, but as a result,he falls off the steep cliff, having his body smashed into pieces. The pictureon the screen was first created by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the MingDynasty. The purpose of the drawing is to warn the government officials not totake bribes and break the law. Here is the main entrance, halfway there isanother gate right in the middle, called Yimen, the second main officialentrance. It used to be open only on the day when new governor took his place orwhen higher official came to visit. On both sides of the second gate, there’retwo small doors, the one on the east was called Life door, while the one on thewest was called Death door, or Ghost door, which was used only by the criminalswhen they were sentenced to death and were going to be killed. Passing throughYimen, you can see a grand building here in front of you . That is the greathall. The great hall was the place where the governor of the county announcedthe government orders, and also some important ceremonies were held here andsome important and serious criminal cases were tried here. In the middle of it,a trial desk was placed, and on the desk, the four treasures of the study andthe red and green bamboo pieces used for trial could be found. On the front sideof the screen, there’s a picture of seawater, tide and the sun, meaning that anofficial should be as clear as the sun and the moon and as clean as seawater. Inother words, an official should be honest and upright. When the prosecutor andthe defendant were taken to the hall for trial, they must kneel down on thestones. The square stone on the east was for the prosecutor, and the rectanglestone on the west was for the accused. Since most cases
involved more defendants, the stone for them was longer then. The housebehind the great hall was called doorman house. The man who guarded the housewas called Doorman, who was the county governor’s relative or people who wereclose to him. Now we have come to the second hall. It was the place where theCounty Magistrate dealt with small cases. Please look at these famous couplets,which means that before law everyone is equal. So the judges should pass thefairest judgment on people. This is called Fuzi Yard, an ancient form of addressto a Confucian scholar or to a master by his disciples. Fuzi was usually theofficial’s assistant who was usually their close friend of knowledgeable andartistic talent. Everyone, including the county governor respectfully addressedhim as Lao Fuzi, so the place where Fuzi worked was called Fuzi Yard. Finally,let’s go to the third hall. It was the place where county governor did his dailywork. If the cases he dealt with were of great importance, he would do it here.There was also a garden behind. It was here that county governor enjoyed hisfree life and got away from his government affairs. As we can see now, there’remany succinct couplets with rich intension here. But this one before the thirdhall was the most famous. It was written by GaoYigong , a county governor inNeixiang county. It means that being the local officials, we rearded the commonpeople as our parents. We worked for them voluntarily and willingly.Nowadays ,many of our Party leaders like Chairman Jiang Zemin read it with deep feelings,and Premier Zhu Rongji sings high praise of it. The words can be no doubtregarded as famous saying and epigram, and the only one of its kind. So now theYmen in Neixiang, together with the Museum Palace in Beijing, and the other twoin Hebei and Shanxi, has formed a special international tore route of the fourgreat ancient Chinese Yamens. Neixiang is now going out of Henan and into theworld. We warmly welcome all the reiends from all over the world to visitNeixiang, and enjoy the elegant demeanor of the ancient Yamen.

The ShaoLin Temple The shaolin temple was first completed in 495, duringthe reign of Northern Wei Dynasty. In 527, Bodhidharma, the disciple ofSakyamuni of the 28th generation came here to practice Zen creed. As it wasconcealed in the thick woods of the shaoshi hill, it was given the name ShaolinTemple meaning “temple in the woods of Shaoshi Hill”. As you know, the shaolintemple is widely known not only for its ancient and mysterious Buddhist culture,but also for its martial arts, that is Kungfu in Chinese, which enjoys atradition of some 20__ years. So that’s the saying “Chinese Kungfu taking thefirst place under the heaven” and “the best kungfu originating from shaolintemple.” In the year 20__, the temple sightseeing zone was designated to be oneof the AAAAA-grade tourist attractions of China by the National TourismAdministration
Now we’re standing in front of the Front Gate Hall. Please look up at theplaque hanging above the lintel, and you’ll find the plaque bears three Chinesecharacters, Shaolin Si, the name of the temple. This is said to be handwrittenby Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. This work is very precious because theemperor rarely wrote. Ok please follow me. Just now, we have visited the FrontGate Hall, steles, ginkgos, and the Hall of the Heavenly Kings, and now, we arejust in the principal hall in the temple, the Hall of Mahavira. This hall isenshrined with three main Buddhas in the central part. They are Sakyamuni Buddhasitting in the middle and Pharmacist Buddha of the Eastern Glazed World andAmitabha Buddha from the Western Paradise sitting on both sides. Along the gablewalls, sit 18 Buddhist Arhats, who were enlightened Buddhist monks. On bothsides in front of the Hall of Mahavira, stand the Bell Tower and the Drum Towersymmetrically. They were rebuilt in 1994 used to report hours for the temple.Normally the bell is used in the morning, while the drum, in the afternoon,hence the saying “morning bell and afternoon drum”. In front of the Bell Toweris the stele called “the Stele of Li Shimin” telling the story about how themonks from the Shaolin Temple rescued Prince Li Shimin from being pursued andattacked by Wang Shichong during the late Sui Dynasty. Li Shimin, who laterbecame the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty wrote the inscriptions on the stelepersonally,and left with a signature of Shi min on the stele. Ok please comewith me, we are going to the next hall. So now, the pavilion in front of us, notlike the Zangjingge and the Abbot’s rooms we visited just now, enjoys a movingstory. It’s named Dharma’s Pavilion or Lixue Pavilion, that is “Standing in thesnow” in English. It says: After Boddhi Dharma came to China, many ChineseBuddhist believers wanted to be his followers, and Shengguang was the mostprominent of all of them. He
always followed him whenever and wherever he went and served Dharma withheart and soul. But Dharma didn’t agree to accept Shengguang as a disciple.Shengguang didn’t lose heart and became even more steadfast. On a snowy night,he begged as usual with Budhidharma outside, standing in the knee-high snow. Themaster set forward a prerequisite: he would not meet his demand unless it wouldsnow in red flakes. Suddenly Shengguang drew out the sword and cut off his leftarm and stained the snowy ground. Bodhidharma was so moved that he passed hismantle, alms bowl and musical instruments on to Shengguang and gave him aBuddhist name of Huike. He was regarded as the second founder of the Zen sect.Emperor Qianlong wrote a phrase on a plaque in commemoration Alright everyone,now we are in the last hall, Pilu Hall, also called a Thousand Buddha Hall. It’salso the largest structure of the Shaolin Temple. This is just the highlight ofthe sightseeing zone. So until now, the visit in the Shaolin Temple is almostover. I think you may have some questions about the temple, or you want to takesome photos. So, please do remember, you have half an hour. After half an hourwe will gather in our bus, and make sure you’ll be there on time. And then weare going to the Pagoda Forest. Thank you for your attention!
The longmen grottoes Around 13 km south of Luoyang, there are twopicturesque hills confronting each other with the Yi River flowing northwardbetween them, connected by an arched stone bridge resembling a natural gatetower. This is the right place named Longmen, where the well-known LongmenGrottoes is located. The grottoes, which earns the fame of one of the ThreeTreasure Houses of Stone Sculpture in China, was created over 1500 years age. Itwas first known in the year 493 AD, when Emperor Xiaowen moved his capital toLuoyang from Datong, Shannxi Province, which marked the initiation ofdevelopment and expanse of Buddhism in Central China. It prolongs for 1000meters from north to south. According to the statistics conducted in recentyears, there are 2300 caves and niches with over 100000 Buddhist figures. Inaddition, more than 2800 tablet inscriptions and some 40 Buddhist pagodas werepreserved in or out of the caves.
Now, we’ve got to the grottoes. In front of you, here is the Qianxi Temple.It was built in the early Tang Dynasty around 640 AD. It has altogether 7Buddhist statues inside, of which, AmitabhaBuddha is sitting in the central partwith 2 of his favorite disciples, 2 Bodhisattvas, and 2 Heavenly Kings. Pleasecome with me. Now we are in front of the Bin yang Caves. The Bin yang Cavesconsist of 3 large caves, the North, the Middle and the South caves. The Mid andthe South caves were built under Emperor Xuanwu for practicing the merits andvirtues for his diseased parents, late Emperor Xiaowen and late EmpressDowagerWenzhao. While the North Bin yang cave was added for the late EmperorXuanwu by a eunuch in the palace. In the Western Hill of Longmen, there areseveral “the most” caves to feast your eyes. Just now, we visited theTen-thousand Buddha Cave with 15000 Buddhist images, which has the most Buddhaimages, and the Lotus Cave with 2cm-high Buddha images, which are the tiniestBuddha images. And now, we’ve come to another “most”, the Fengxian Temple.Fengxian Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty and it is the largest grotto inLongmen Temple with a width of 36 meters and a length of 41 meters. The mostimpressive figure is the statue of Vairocana Buddha sitting cross-legged on theeight-square lotus throne. It is 17.14 meters in total height with the head4meters in height and the ears 1.9 meters in length. At the sides of Vairocanathere are two statues of Vairocana Buddha's disciples, Kasyapa and Ananda,wearing prudent and devout expressions,next are 2 Bodhisattvas, Heavenly Kings,and
Great Men of Strength. Vairocana means illuminating all things in thesutra. The Buddha has a well-filled figure, a sacred and kindly expression andan elegant smile. The chief Buddha gives you an impression of dignified manner,magnificent looking, wise, farsighted and kind nature. The various appearancesand delicate designs are the representations of Empire Tang's powerful materialand spiritual strength as well as the high crystallization of people's wisdoms.Looking around the overall arrangement, we would rather say that the FengxianTemple is a scene of a grand imperial court than a spot of Buddhism. Generallyspeaking, the Fengxian Temple is the most magnificent and artistic among all theshrines of the Tang Dynasty as well as an example of success in integratingpolitics with Buddhism in ancient China. Ok everyone, now you can take photoshere. Or you can ask questions that you don’t understand. After 15 minutes wewill gather right here. See you then.
