平遙雙林寺，原名中都寺，位於山西省晉中市平遙縣西南六公里的橋頭村，是第三批全國重點文物保護單位，1997 年與平遙古城、鎮國寺一同列入世界文化遺產名錄，素有「東方彩塑藝術博物館」之譽。據寺內北宋碑刻記載，該寺重修於北齊武平二年（571 年），推測始建年代更早，北宋時更名為雙林寺，元末建築傾頹，明清時期大規模修葺，現存建築多為明清遺構，總佔地面積約 1.5 萬平方米。 該寺坐北朝南，分東西兩部分，西部為核心廟院，沿中軸線佈置三進院落，共 10 座殿堂：前院有釋迦殿、羅漢殿、武聖殿等；中院為大雄寶殿及千佛殿、菩薩殿；後院為娘娘殿與貞義祠。寺院外圍環繞 6 米高的朱紅夯土包磚牆，設有垛口，猶如小型城堡，防禦性與觀賞性兼具。 寺內珍藏彩塑 2000 餘尊，完好者 1500 餘尊，大則丈餘、小僅尺許，涵蓋佛、菩薩、羅漢、金剛等形象，其中天王殿四大金剛、千佛殿韋陀像（有「東方大衛」之稱）、菩薩殿二十六臂觀音等尤為經典，彩塑繼承唐宋金元塑藝傳統，高度寫實、神情生動，衣紋流轉自然，展現出明代塑藝的精湛技藝。此外，寺內還存有唐槐、宋碑、明清壁畫，與彩塑共同構成一方文化勝境。 Shuanglin Temple in Pingyao, originally named Zhongdu Temple, is located in Qiaotou Village, 6 kilometers southwest of Pingyao County, Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province. It is one of the third batch of Major Historical and Cultural Sites Protected at the National Level. In 1997, it was inscribed on the World Cultural Heritage List together with Pingyao Ancient City and Zhenguo Temple, and is known as the "Oriental Museum of Painted Sculpture Art". According to the Northern Song steles in the temple, the temple was renovated in the 2nd year of Wuping in the Northern Qi Dynasty (571 AD), and it is speculated that its founding date was earlier. It was renamed Shuanglin Temple in the Northern Song Dynasty. The buildings collapsed at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and were renovated on a large scale in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The existing buildings are mostly relics of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with a total area of about 15,000 square meters. The temple faces south with its back to the north, and is divided into east and west parts. The west part is the core temple courtyard, with three courtyards arranged along the central axis, totaling 10 halls: the front courtyard has Sakyamuni Hall, Arhat Hall, Wusheng Hall, etc.; the middle courtyard is the Mahavira Hall, Qianfo Hall and Bodhisattva Hall; the back courtyard is the Niangniang Hall and Zhenyi Shrine. The temple is surrounded by a 6-meter-high red rammed earth brick wall with crenellations, like a small castle, which is both defensive and ornamental. The temple houses more than 2,000 painted sculptures, with more than 1,500 well-preserved ones. The largest ones are over ten feet tall, and the smallest ones are only about a foot tall, covering images of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, Vajras, etc. Among them, the Four Vajras in the Heavenly King Hall, the Wei Tuo statue in the Qianfo Hall (known as the "Oriental David"), and the Twenty-six-armed Guanyin in the Bodhisattva Hall are particularly classic. The painted sculptures inherit the sculpture art traditions of the Tang, Song, Jin and Yuan Dynasties, with high realism, vivid expressions, and natural flowing clothing lines, showing the exquisite craftsmanship of Ming Dynasty sculpture art. In addition, the temple also preserves Tang Dynasty scholar trees, Northern Song steles, and Ming and Qing murals, which together form a cultural scenic spot.
