What are the architectural features of Zixiao Palace in Wudang Mountain?

From the east gate, I entered the Dragon and Tiger Hall, Monument Pavilion, Tang Shifang Hall and Zixiao Hall, and then I came to my parents' hall. These floors of halls seem to be stacked by mountains, and the rest are pavilions. On both sides are the East Palace and the West Palace. They are self-contained, quiet and elegant, and they are even more noble and rich under the mutual shadow of bamboo forests and famous flowers and grasses in Zhou Songbai. This architectural idea accords with nature. Zixiao Hall is the only wooden hall in Wudang Mountain with double eaves and a mountain-resting structure. This large wooden structure Taoist building with hanging beams is extremely rare in ancient buildings in China. It makes full use of the terrain gap and is built on a three-story platform, which is magnificent and magnificent.

Because the Zixiao Palace is a place where Wudang Taoism prayed for the royal family and has a special position, it has a solemn layout and exquisite furnishings. The gods and immortals worshipped by Taoism in each temple are gathered together, and together with the furnishings such as god cases, sacrificial vessels and utensils, a mysterious fairy world is formed. Emperors of Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties often set up altars and shrines here, praying for the spirits of ancestors in heaven, and praying for the blessing of gods at the same time, so as to ensure the safety of the country and people, good weather, abundant crops and stable rule.
