Datong Huayan Temple dates from the Liao and Jin dynasties (the 11th and 12th centuries AD). Huayan Temple was separated into an upper and lower temple in the Ming Dynasty about 500 years ago and then rejoined in 1963. The Lower Huayan Temple houses the Sutra Hall which was built in 1038, while the Mahavira Hall built in 1062 is on the Upper Huayan Temple. The Smiling Bodhisattva in the Sutra Hall has been widely adopted as the symbol of Datong for her appealing smile with its parted lips and visible teeth.
