The first Buddhist temple established in China, built in 68 AD during the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is considered the cradle of Chinese Buddhism. Visitors can see the ancient pagodas, the cool and quiet halls, as well as the neighboring Indian and Thai style temples.

A must-visit in Luoyang, White Horse Temple is revered as China’s first officially sanctioned Buddhist temple and one of the oldest in the world, dating back nearly 2,000 years. Though it has been rebuilt multiple times, it retains its historical and spiritual significance, drawing numerous domestic tourists. The temple complex also includes an international section with temples donated by Thailand, Burma, and India. The Thai Temple features a Thai marble vihara and a replica of the Chinnarat Buddha statue. The India Buddha Hall, inspired by the Sanchi Stupa and constructed with Indian marble and granite, was opened in 2008 after being proposed during Indian Prime Minister Vajpayee's visit to the temple in 2003. The Burmese-style Buddha Hall, inspired by Yangon’s Shwedagon Pagoda, was completed in 2014 with gates and walls modeled after the Mandalay Palace.

This is allegedly the tomb of Du Fu (712-770 AD), a great poet of the Tang Dynasty who wrote more than 3000 poems during his lifetime. According to some historical records, Du Fu was originally buried in Hunan Province but about 40 years later, his grandson Du Siye reburied his coffin at this location, so that he could lay beside the graves of his ancestors. Whether Du Fu is actually buried here, however, is a mystery. There are in fact no less than eight tombs in China that all claim to be Du Fu's Tomb.

The centerpiece of the park is the Shangqing Temple, a Taoist Temple that was founded in the Tang Dynasty. The temple has been rebuilt and renovated many times, partly due to damage caused by numerous disasters such as an earthquake in the 16th century and a Japanese bombing raid in World War II.
