So your understanding of Chinese culture is only temples?If you ask me, if I know Chinese culture, well. I barely scratched the surface. But according to what I read, Chinese culture, as it was, ended with cultural revolution.
And most of the old temples are either destroyed or left out, without much maintenance.
What you see in those pictures are skeleton of what was once a 5000 year old culture. The efforts to put them back is very good. But I'm pessimistic about the results.
Sorry. There have been four large-scale destruction of Buddhism in Chinese history.
