Introduction of Lama Temple
Lama Temple Beijing (Yonghegong), or Palace of Peace and Harmony Lama
Temple or Yonghegong Lamsery, is a renowned lama temple of the Yellow
Hat Sect of Lamaism.
Lama
Temple features five large halls and five courtyards with beautifully
decorative archways, upturned eaves and carved details. It houses a
treasury of Buddhist art, including sculptured images of gods, demons
and Buddhas, as well as Tibetan-style murals.
After
Yongzheng's death in 1735, his coffin was placed in the temple. Emperor
Qianlong, his successor, upgraded Yonghegong to an imperial palace with
its turquoise tiles replaced by yellow tiles (yellow was the imperial
color in the Qing Dynasty). During the 9th year of Emperor Qian Long's
reign (1744), it was converted into a lamasery and became a residence
for large numbers of monks from Mongolia and Tibet.This is a kind of
friendly policy that the Qing dynasty deal with the relation with Mongolia
and Tibet.
