Beizhen Temple

Beizhen Temple makes the political importance of a mountain visible in halls, gateways and inscribed stone. Its north–south sequence directs attention toward the deity, while surviving stelae record successive acts of honour and repair. Some former subsidiary buildings, including the Qing imperial lodge, remain as archaeological foundations.
