After practicing for 75 years at Jiuhua, his body remained intact after death and became a central object of veneration. Built in the Qing Dynasty, the hall is a masterpiece of traditional Hui-style architecture, featuring curved eaves, intricate wood carvings, and symbolic decorative elements. It is one of the most significant pilgrimage destinations for Buddhists across China. The red lanterns and the Chinese national flag in front of the temple represent the blending of ancient religious devotion and modern cultural identity. This site holds not only deep spiritual meaning but also tangible historical and architectural value. This heritage preservation project aligns with SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities. By using digital technologies to reduce physical tourist impact and preserve sacred sites, we ensure cultural continuity and sustainable community identity.
