An Old Buddhist Temple

I want to show you an old temple today. You can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ooI43LOEvQM

In the year 686 AD, it was called "Lotus Temple". In the 26th year of the Tang Dynasty's Kaiyuan period (738 AD), Emperor Xuanzong of Tang ordered that a Kaiyuan Temple must be built in each province. Thus, it was renamed as Kaiyuan Temple.

If you visit many old cities in China, you might see many Kaiyuan Temples, which have the same story.
