Obo Worship at Beizi Temple

Beizi Temple, known in Mongolian as “Banzhida Gegen Temple” and in Chinese as “Chongshan Temple,” is one of the four great temples of Inner Mongolia. Built in the eighth year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty (1743), it was refined over seven generations of Living Buddhas and is a sacred site of Tibetan Buddhism. Its scale has long been recognized as the largest temple in the Xilin Gol League area, making it a great treasure trove of Buddhist culture in the league and earning it the reputation of the “Famous Northern Temple.” Obo worship is a grand ritual of the Mongolian people and their most solemn and enthusiastic sacrificial ceremony. On the day of the event, participants will visit Beizi Temple to worship the obo, inviting lamas to pray for peace in the nation, favorable weather, and safe travels.
