CANADIAN IMITATED TANG-STYLE WOODEN HALL PROJECT

Located more than 100 miles away from Toronto, the Canadian Wutaishan Daxiong Hall is modeled on the East Hall of the Tang Dynasty remains of the Great Buddha Guang Temple in Wutaishan, China, and adopts an imitation Tang-style pure wood structure. The overall assembly process starts from the raspberry column base, and the wooden structure between the column and the upper and lower sills is all spliced by tenon and tenon splicing, highlighting the characteristics of all wood materials, tenon and tenon structure, ancient construction and other technical characteristics, and complementing traditional ancient construction skills and ancient construction culture in practice. After its completion, Canada Wutai Mountain is not only a Buddhist ashram, a Dharma propagation center and a learning base, but also a multi-functional cultural park integrating religion, culture, art, education, environmental protection, tourism and so on, which will carry forward the compassionate spirit of Buddhism, spread China's traditional culture, enrich Canada's multicultural connotation, and promote the development of Canada's tourism industry with brand-new concepts and methods.
As a Luban inheritance originating from Jiangnan Water Town, ZYF Construction will adopt modern project management concepts, uphold traditional wooden structure construction techniques, and strive to reproduce the original Tang Dynasty and show the cultural characteristics of Chinese Han Buddhism.
