2022-04-08

The Nine Dragons Wall was originally the screen wall in front of a Buddha hall, and was built in the 21st year of the Qianlong era (1756). The wall is 5.96 meters high, 1.60 meters thick and 25.52 meters long. The two sides of the wall are made of seven-color glazed tiles. Both sides have nine colored large dragons, soaring and playing beads in the clouds. The wall has 635 large and small dragons in total. There are three existing ancient nine-dragon walls in China, but this is the only double-colored wall.
