平涼大雲寺（又稱涇川大雲寺）位於甘肅省平涼市涇川縣城西北約1公里處，始建於隋仁壽元年（公元601年），初名大興國寺，後於公元690年由武則天敕令改建為大雲寺，以珍藏《大雲經》並供奉佛舍利。其核心價值在於1964年出土的隋唐五重套函（石函、鎏金銅匣、銀槨、金棺、琉璃瓶）及14粒佛祖骨舍利，這一發現被郭沫若鑑定為國寶級文物，比著名的法門寺地宮早180年，反映了唐代舍利供養制度的劃時代變革。此後在2013年，遺址附近又發現宋代龍興寺地宮，出土佛舍利2000餘粒，形成49年間三次出土佛舍利的罕見現象。現寺內重建的仿唐風格建築群佔地364畝，包括高95米的舍利塔、主展館等，已成為國家AAAA級旅遊景區和甘肅省規模最大的仿唐建築群之一。作為絲綢之路上的佛教文化樞紐，大雲寺不僅以「西有敦煌、東有涇川」的格局展現佛教藝術東傳脈絡，更以舍利瘗葬制度的漢化實證成為研究中國佛教史的重要地標。

Pingliang Dayun Temple (also known as Jingchuan Dayun Temple) is located approximately 1 kilometer northwest of Jingchuan County in Pingliang City, Gansu Province. Originally built in 601 AD during the Sui Dynasty under the name Daxingguo Temple, it was later renamed Dayun Temple by imperial decree of Empress Wu Zetian in 690 AD to enshrine the "Great Cloud Sutra" and house Buddhist relics. Its core significance lies in the 1964 discovery of a five-layer nested reliquary set (stone case, gilded copper box, silver outer coffin, gold coffin, and glass bottle) containing 14 Buddha's bone relics, which were authenticated by Guo Moruo as national treasures. This discovery predates the famous Famen Temple underground palace by 180 years and reflects a groundbreaking evolution in Tang Dynasty relic enshrinement practices. In 2013, a Song Dynasty Longxing Temple underground palace was uncovered near the site, yielding over 2,000 additional Buddhist relics—marking three major relic discoveries within a span of 49 years. The reconstructed complex, designed in Tang-style architecture, spans 364 acres and features a 95-meter-tall pagoda and main exhibition halls, now recognized as a National AAAA-level tourist attraction and one of Gansu's largest Tang-style architectural ensembles. As a pivotal hub of Buddhist culture along the Silk Road, Dayun Temple not only exemplifies the eastward transmission of Buddhist art through the "Dunhuang in the West, Jingchuan in the East" framework but also stands as a critical landmark for studying Chinese Buddhist history through its sinicized relic burial practices.
