Baluntai yellow Temple

It is the largest holy land of yellow religion in Xinjiang. It is located in the north of Hejing County, 130km away from Korla City and accessible by national highway 218. Huang Temple was built in 1888, and was named Yongan Temple by Emperor Guangxu of Qing Dynasty. The Yellow temple is located in the center, and the other 14 temples are well arranged and facing south. The Baluntai River, hidden in the dense forest of the valley, flows from the front of the temples like a paradise.

Due to the disrepair and the devastating destruction during the cultural revolution, the whole temple group was almost razed to the ground. Now there are only huangmiao temple, Kejin temple, pagoda and manhanwangfu. Since 1984, master Panchen Lama and living Buddha Shengqin have come to the Yellow Temple several times to praise the mountain, water and temple for their aura. As a result, the Yellow temple has added a magical aura to people's mind. The 15th of the first month of every year is the peak period of incense.
