Pule Temple, Buddhist temple in Chengde, China
The temple complex includes traditional Chinese structures in the front section and incorporates Tibetan architectural elements with mandala designs in the rear portion.
Emperor Qianlong commissioned the construction of Pule Temple in 1766 to receive diplomatic envoys from ethnic minority regions in the western territories.
The temple incorporates a wooden mandala inside its Round Pavilion, representing the Buddhist universe through geometric patterns and intricate carvings.
The temple opens from 8:00 to 17:00 between April and October, and 8:30 to 16:30 from November to March, with entry tickets priced at 50 yuan.
The Round Pavilion at the rear of Pule Temple follows the architectural design of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests in Beijing Temple of Heaven.
