At the entrance to the City, the Mountain Gate with its three arches was constructed in 1980. Glazed yellow roof tiles and red brick walls were distinctive features of the gate. | ||||||||||||
| The City of Ten Thousand Buddhas is a wellspring from which Buddhism flows into the world; it is also a place to which Buddhism throughout the world returns. As the Avatamsaka Sutra says: | |||||||||||||
| There is nothing that does not flow forth from the Dharma Realm, And nothing that does not return to the Dharma Realm. |
