1、少林寺景点介绍中文及英文中文版少林寺的历史久远,始建于北魏太和十九年(495年)。32年后,印度名僧菩提达摩来到少林寺传授禅法。以后,寺院逐渐扩大,僧徒日益增多,少林寺声名大振。达摩被称为中国佛教禅宗的初祖,少林寺称为禅宗的祖庭。禅宗修行的禅法称为“壁观“,就是面对墙壁静坐。由于长时间盘膝而坐,极易疲劳,僧人们就习武锻炼,以解除身体的困倦。因此传说少林拳是达摩创造的。少林寺在唐朝初年就扬名海内。1673年,少林寺派人参加战争,帮助康熙皇帝打赢了一场战争,但是,随后康熙命蒙古八旗进攻少林,少林寺被夷为平地,有五名僧人逃了出来,据说加入了天地会。右图为少林僧人在寺门前表演少林功夫。少林寺在鼎盛时期
2、,7进院落,规模很大。可惜在1928年,军阀混战,军阀石友三火烧少林寺,把天王殿、大雄宝殿、法堂和钟楼等主要建筑统统毁于一炬;许多珍贵的藏经、寺志、拳谱等烧成灰烬。现在还存在的建筑有山门、立雪亭、千佛殿等,其他建筑正在陆续恢复中。千佛殿内供毗卢佛铜像,因此亦叫毗卢殿。殿内彼地上还保存着20多个直径约4.5厘米的洼坑,是往昔寺僧练拳习武时的脚坑遗迹。脚坑分布方圆不大,呈一条线状,这是僧人刻苦练功的见证,也说明少林拳的所谓“曲而不曲,直而不直”的特点。千佛殿东侧的白衣殿,三面墙绘有少林拳谱壁画,壁画长约20米,很生动地表现少林寺和尚练拳习武的情景。大雄宝殿是寺院佛事活动的中心场所,与天王殿、藏经阁
3、并称为三大佛殿。原建筑毁于1928年,1986年重建。殿内供释迦牟尼、药师佛、阿弥陀佛的神像,殿堂正中悬挂康熙皇帝御笔亲书的“宝树芳莲四个大字,屏墙后壁有观音塑像,两侧塑有十八罗汉像。整个建筑结构合理,雄伟壮观,气宇轩昂。立雪亭建于明代,1980年重新修缮。相传这里是二祖慧可侍立在雪地里向达摩祖师断臂求法的地方。殿内神龛中现供奉达摩祖师的铜坐像,是在公元1531年(明嘉靖十年)所铸。龛上悬挂的匾额“雪印心珠四字为清乾隆皇帝御笔亲题,字体遒劲,气势豪迈。此殿现为寺僧日常做佛事的场所。少林寺自建寺以来,禅、武、医举世闻名,经久不衰,沉积了丰厚的历史内涵和文化底蕴,曾先后被评为“郑州市十大旅游景区、
