Qiongzhu Si ( Bamboo Temple )
This Tang Dynasty temple is twelve Km Northwest of the city. The
current structure is not that old, however, because after burning down
in the 15th century it had to be rebuilt in a major renovation
stretching between 1833 and 1850. During this process approximately
500 life-size sculptures of Buddhist Arhats were cast and painted.
 Admission is CNY 10. At the Dianchi Cinema and at the entrance of the
Yunnan Hotel, you can take the tourist bus to the Bamboo Temple.
