The original teachings from India became imbued with native Chinese thought on heaven and man; a foreign religion therefore with Chinese modifications. As far as its architecture was concerned is gradually integrated with that of China in style hardly differing from that stipulated by central government law. In addition to the wooden or brick and stone temple gate the main hall and other Buddhist buildings the Buddhist pagoda or tomb pagoda often took on various forms in the monasteries. Unique forms including those to be found in the stone cave and the lamasery are also to be seen chiefly in Northern China and western localities. To facilitate identification the monasteries and their location in what is a vast land have roughly been arranged into three regions: Northern China Central China and the western localities. Not only is their appearance described but the reader is also given an insight into their internal structure their fittings as well as the exquisitely sculptured statues all an expression of the dignified beauty of Buddhist architecture.
