As soon as passing through the one pillar gate which did not matching the Temple listed on UNESCO, I could see the unexpected wonderful pavilion in the name of Man Se Ru, which means live long life (10,000 years)
Why Man Se Ru in Buddhist temple ?
I was curious for naming of this pavilion.
Even though Live long is very important in every culture, but it is not core value in Buddhism.
In my guess, this naming is the proof of the mixture between Buddhism and Taoism.
But it is hard to say my estimation is correct.
It could be said as an intellectual play in my own.
The impressive thing was the scenery than the name.
The pavilion made very wonderful scenery with the surrounding features as below.
The scenes through the steps beneath the pavilion
The complete view of the pavilion.
The roof of the pavilion from the main building.
The Scenery from the pavilion.
This pavilion seemed to be made the last gate to enter into the main area, but this building looked like providing us more beautiful than main buildings in this temple.

Pavilions may be small garden outbuildings similar to a summer house or a kiosk small rooms on the roof of a large house reached only via the roof rather than by internal stairs may also be called pavilions These were particularly popular up to the 18th century and can be equated to the Italian casina formerly rendered in English casino These often resembled small classical temples and follies Especially if there is some space for food preparation they may be called a banqueting house A pavilion built to take advantage of a view may be referred to as a gazeboBandstands in a park are a class of pavilion A pool house by a swimming pool may have sufficient character and charm to be called a pavilion By contrast a frestanding pavilion can also be a far larger building such as the Royal Pavilion at Brighton which is in fact a large oriental style palacehowever like its smaller namesakes the common factor is that it was built for pleasure and relaxation
