Attractions and things to do - Beijing Sightseeing – Lama Temple, Panda Garden and Altar of the Divine Farmer

Lama Temple (Yonghegong), or Palace of Peace and harmony is an elegant temple and lamasery. Once the residence of a royal court, this vibrantly ornamented temple is one of the largest and most important Tibetan Buddhist monasteries in the world. Built in 1694 AD, Lama Temple houses tranquil gardens, superb sculptures and a veritable treasury of Buddhist art.
