In the Pingcheng era of the Northern Wei Dynasty,the core area of Buddhist culture represented by Wuzhou moun-tain and Wutai Mountain was gradually formed in northern Shanxi.Samantha tanyao was once honored as the White Emperor.With the support of emperor Wencheng tuobajun,he dug Yungang Grottoes,from the theoretical preaching of"the son of heaven is the Buddha"to the entity construction of"order is like the emperor".The shape changes of the grotto Buddha statues reflect that Bud-dhism played an important role in the process of integrating the multi-ethnic culture of the Northern Wei Dynasty.After Emperor Xiaowen Tuoba Hong ascended the throne,he toured Wutai Mountain South of Pingcheng for many times,set up twelve temples around lingjiu peak,and built a number of famous temples such as Xiantong temple,Qingliang temple and Foguang temple,which effectively promoted the spread of Manjusri belief.In all,Yungang Grottoes and lingjiufeng 12th courtyard,as the National Buddhist project funded by the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty,have a large scale and strict layout,which is intended to highlight the majesty and strong strength of the Northern Wei Dynasty,and reflect the basic characteristics of Buddhist buildings under the in-tervention of state power in the Pingcheng Era.
