Any symbols on the outside are part of the decoration, either Buddhist, Daoist, scholar items, or other. A mark would have to be on the bottom, but you haven't uploaded a picture. But, actually most of these vases do not have a mark.
Anyway, the marks are mostly for decoration only and irrelevant for dating, etc.

Hello,
This is not a temple vase.
The type of vase shown in the pictures is a typical vase of the Guangxu reign, in the late Qing dynasty.
