南普陀寺
Nanputuo Temple
Nanputuo Temple is located at the foot of Wulao Peak. The Buddhist hall is spread out along the rising central axis, with cliff inscriptions and tree-shaded courtyards. The temple has been built many times in the past dynasties, and today it is still a place for religious activities, rather than simply an ornamental attraction. The space for worshiping Buddha, the vegetarian tradition and the mountain background all illustrate its continued influence in Xiamen.
