Buddhist Temple sights in Tiānjīn

  1. Monastery of Deep Compassion

    Tiānjīn's most important Buddhist temple is noted for its Shìjiā Bǎo Hall (Shìjiā Bǎodiàn) and the subsequent large hall where a huge and golden multi-armed statue of Guanyin awaits, her eyes following you around the hall. The road leading up to the temple is an extraordinary market of religious paraphernalia, from prayer mats to books, Buddhist rosaries, talismans, statues and incense.
