The architectural features of the Mani Hall of Longxing Temple in Zhengding
The Mani Hall of Zhengding Longxing Temple had many unique architectural features: 1. ** Overall layout ** - It was located in Longxing Temple, Zhengding County, Hebei Province. It was the most important ancient building in the temple. The main structure was a square hall with seven rooms. - In the middle of each of the four sides, there was a Xieshan style building with mountain flowers protruding forward. It was distributed in a cross shape. The plane was a narrow rectangular cross shape. The second space in both directions was narrower than the tip. - The outer eaves and columns were surrounded by closed brick walls, and the inner column network was composed of two circles of inner columns. 2. ** Rooftop Style ** - The roof of the hall was a double-eave Xieshan Peak (rebuilt by later generations). This kind of roof was complicated and interlaced, like a forest of mountains. It was different from the formal roof of the Qing Dynasty hall in the Forbidden City. It reflected a complex geometric aesthetic. Such buildings were rare in China. 3. ** Dou Gong feature ** - The bucket arch under the eaves was of a large scale, with a sparse layout, with obvious rolling brake, side angle and rising characteristics. There were a total of 127 dougong in more than 20 styles. The 45-degree slanting arch was used in the room, showing the rich changes of the dougong in harmony. The design of the bucket arch was complicated and varied. The use of the inclined arch indicated that the construction technology was quite mature during the Northern Song Dynasty. 4. ** Beam frame structure ** - The structure of the beam frame followed the Song Dynasty's "Building Law", using the lifting beam type. The front and back of the eight rafters on the upper floor were supported by four pillars, sharing a four-seam beam frame, supported by golden pillars inside and outside. The ratio of height to width of the flat beams was close to 3:2, which was in line with the standard size of the Song Dynasty components. The ratio of the beam frame to the bending was 1: 3.41, reflecting the unique style of the Song Dynasty architecture. 5. ** Lighting and ventilation ** - There were doors and windows on all four sides of the building, but only the walls of the arch were slightly illuminated, so the lighting and ventilation in the hall were poor. 6. ** Space Speciality ** - The three-dimensional structure was overlapping and majestic, full of changes. It was rare in the early ancient architecture of our country. By taking advantage of the changes in the size of the building and the space of the courtyard, although the axis was long, it did not feel stiff. 7. ** Age of construction and renovation ** - It was built in the fourth year of Emperor You of the Northern Song Dynasty (1052). It has undergone many repairs, such as the complete renovation in the 22nd year of Chenghua of the Ming Dynasty (1486) and the 42nd year of Kangxi to the 45th year of Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.(1703 - 1780) Large-scale renovation, partial shelf removal and tile roof renovation in the 24th year of Qing Daoguang (1844), major renovation in 1977 - 1980 (this major renovation confirmed the exact age of the building and found many bricks, tiles, and wooden components with words), 2016 - 2017 Dunhuang Research Institute implemented a protection project for the murals, and the renovation project was completed from April to September 2020.
