Located within the Lama Temple, the Wanfu Pavilion was originally constructed in 1750 during the Qing Dynasty’s Qianlong period. It stands at a height of 23 meters and houses tens of thousands of small Buddha statues, hence its name. The structure spans seven bays wide and features a two-story building with triple eaves. Inside, an 18-meter-tall Maitreya Buddha statue is enshrined, and to accommodate this large statue, the pavilion employs a vertical well-style spatial design, surrounded by multiple levels of corridors and pillars. Visitors can ascend the stairs to view the Buddha statue from various angles. The Wanfu Pavilion exemplifies the architectural style of a Han-Tibetan mixed Lamaist temple.
