Full travelling information of Beijing attractions Hall of the Sea of Wisdom

 

Completed in 1750 during the Qing dynasty, the hall situates on the top of the Longevity Hill as a religionary structure. Without a single beam or column used in its structure, the hall was also called "no beam hall". Built with bricks, the outer walls were totally wrapped with colorful glazes, which appear brilliant and colorful in the sunlight.

There used to be many niches and Buddha figures in the hall. However most of them were burned down during the invasions of the Anglo-French Allied forces and allied forces of the eight powers.
