In Luoyang, central China’s Henan Province, White Horse Temple stands as a cradle of Chinese Buddhism.

Founded in AD 68 during the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is revered as the “First Ancient Buddhist Temple in China”, and has witnessed Buddhism take root and flourish.

From here, the faith gradually spread to Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia and beyond.

Its solemn halls and lifelike statues embody centuries of devotion and artistry.

Today, the temple remains a sacred space where belief, art and architecture endure across millennia.
