Famen Temple

Introduction

Famen Temple is located 118km (73 miles) west of Xian and was built during the Eastern Han dynasty (25-220AD) to store a relic of Buddha’s finger bone. In 1987 the largest Buddhist underground palace in China was also uncovered here.

The temple houses many precious treasures including more than 2,400 gold and silver items, glazed wares, porcelain, pottery, jewelry and textile products of the Tang imperial court.
