As China's National Day holiday approaches, Geyuan Temple in Laiyuan county of Baoding, Hebei province, is preparing to welcome the public, offering a rare glimpse into the architectural heritage of the Liao Dynasty (916–1125).
Though not yet fully developed as a tourist site, the temple has gradually attracted attention from historians and architecture enthusiasts. Its main building, Wenshu Hall, was built in 966 and is one of only eight surviving structures from the Liao period in the country. The hall was designated a national key cultural relic in 1996, according to the county's culture and tourism bureau.
