The temple originated centuries ago and underwent multiple major reconstructions over time due to environmental challenges and structural needs. These rebuilding efforts shaped its current form and layout.
The temple serves as a place where people gather to practice Buddhism and participate in regular ceremonies throughout the year. It remains central to the spiritual life of the local community.
Visitors can explore the temple complex by moving through its various halls and courtyards at their own pace. It is best to move respectfully and be aware of those engaged in religious activities.
