Architectural Features - The stone lions


The stone lions at Yanshui Wu Temple should only be looked at, and should not be touched, because people’s body heat will accelerate their weathering. There used to be teeth and jewels sculpted on them, but these are no longer visible as a result of weathering. Such details gradually wear away and cannot be restored. Therefore, visitors are strongly urged not to touch the lions.
