Thanks for posting the article. It's interesting how Buddhism made it's way to China before reaching Tibet. And,  all from an emperor's dream. but credit have to be given to the Chinese for keeping the tradition unbroken for 2,000 years as the rituals are 2,000 years old. Incredible! The energy and blessings from all the rituals must be very strong there.

A temple is a representation of a Pure Land . With the existence of this first Buddhist temple in China, has hit  a crucial note for Buddhism to be widely spread in China for many generations to come. The architectural of the temple is unique and has the taste of orient.  I believe by  building more Buddhist temples in China the nations will be able to  progress in spiritual practice which will transform them to a more caring, selfless and compassionate nation in contrary to put the country in the world map.
