It is the 31st year that Zhang Yufei has worked and lived in Faxing Temple, nestled in Cuiyun Mountain in Zhangzi county, Changzhi, North China's Shanxi province.

The 52-year-old cultural relics guardian and docent knows every sculpture and inscription in the temple, which was listed as a national key cultural relics protection site in 1988.

With a deep history, the temple has rich cultural offerings, including stone pagodas, wooden buildings, colored sculptures, inscriptions and wood carvings. A stone relic pagoda, built in the Tang Dynasty (618-907), is located on the central axis of the temple.

"These cultural relics have become a part of my life and I want to introduce the culture, art and stories behind them to a wider public, letting more people appreciate their beauty," Zhang says. He has published several monographs on the temple's relics and shared Shanxi's cultural heritage stories on social media.
