In the winter, the sky is darker. It takes about 4:30 in the afternoon to drive to Salt Lake City. Entering the scenic spot, the Hua Deng is at the beginning, and the quaint buildings are illuminated by the lights! Part of the reflection in the water, very beautiful! Strolling in the scenic area, there is a feeling of being in a paradise. The quaint insect two inn sings the fairy monks in front of the flower, and the night in the courtyard, toasting the moon. Under the eaves, the umbrella lanterns are hung in ancient times, and the ancient scenes are restored. The nights are bright and the lights are bright. The people in the neighborhood gather together. The night is cool, and the spring is full of moonlight. The couple's twin room named "Fenghua", the red yarn plaque in front of the bedside pillow, the style of Shuicun Mountain Guo wine flag, the antique building community overlooking the window, the atmosphere is magnificent, no one who comes here will not be intoxicated, in front of the window sill Looking through the columns, red lanterns and quaint wooden carved doors come into view, Jiangnan cloth women gently passing the figure from the corridor in front of the door, good NICE! I like it very much. Around 7 o'clock, the Taiji Plaza Tie Shui Dance Dragon officially began to perform, which is the ultimate goal of rushing to Salt Lake City today! With the background music playing, a few old men were shirtless. With the water show in the lake, 1000-degree molten iron was hit into the night sky, showing amazing beauty! Cheering in the audience! This moment is deeply impressed! Quiet in it...
There is little snow in the south of the Yangtze River. Even if it is down, it will melt soon. The snow at the beginning of this year is surprisingly good, and it has not melted for a long time.
Take the East Salt Lake City on that day, enjoy the snow scene, watch the lantern festival, but it made up for me to go to Yunnan and did not see the loss of snow in the south of the Yangtze River. Once I saw enough, there was ice icing, and the southerners really saw this. Scenes. That day 5

Always young, always in love with the comfort of Tianning Temple in the autumn afternoon~
They all say that you should go to the temple in the early morning when the incense is most prosperous, but I say that Tianning Temple in the afternoon has more charm.
Tianning Zen Temple, known as the "first jungle in the southeast", has a unique architectural style and retains a strong Chinese traditional cultural atmosphere. As autumn becomes thicker, the two ginkgo trees at the door have turned golden, and the ground is golden, adding a bit of Zen. It is very suitable for autumn walks and coming here to add incense and blessings.
After passing the Daxiong Hall, you can see the Tianning Pagoda in the distance. The tower body follows the style of the Tang and Song ancient towers. It still retains the most original ancient charm to this day, which is fascinating. The setting sun shines on the Tianning Pagoda, and the Buddha's light and golden light radiate in all directions. Paired with the light and shadow yellow wall, it looks more solemn and sacred.
If you want to see the panoramic view of Tianning Temple, you can also sit in the coffee shop opposite. The rooftop terrace of DIOPDROP gives you endless surprises. In this world where the road is long and the horse is urgent, I hope you and I can be safe and happy, and everything goes smoothly.
Ticket: 20, climb the tower: 50.

🚩 Tianning Temple Pagoda
When you come to Tianning Temple, you must go and see the pagoda. This is the Tianning Pagoda, known as the first Buddhist pagoda in China. It has 13 floors, and each floor is divided into clear layers and sandwich layers, each displaying different Buddhist cultures.

Explore the cultural and natural beauty of Changzhou through the ages!
Changzhou, a city filled with awe-inspiring treasures, offers a profound cultural heritage intertwined with stunning natural landscapes, sure to leave a lasting impression. The journey begins in the Tianning District at the Hongmei Park on Yanling Middle Road, Changzhou's largest classical garden and former site of the Tianning Temple. After years of weathering and expansion, it has become a favorite spot for locals to relax and enjoy the scenery. When the plum blossoms are in full bloom, the Hongmei Pavilion is nothing short of poetic, and the Wenbi Tower, built during the Qi and Liang periods of the Southern Dynasties and one of Changzhou's oldest structures, stands majestically with its seven stories, offering a panoramic view of the city from its top.
Next, visit the Baolin Zen Temple at 98 Hongxi Road in the Tianning District. This royal monastery, founded in 527 AD, may be located on the outskirts of the city, but its unique golden pineapple shape and the ancient and solemn architectural complex are captivating, with each brick and tile bearing the weight of history.
Moreover, the Tianning Zen Temple and its Pagoda at 636 Yanling Middle Road in the Tianning District are undoubtedly landmarks of Changzhou. The temple has stood there since the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era and is known as the 'Number One Jungle in the Southeast.' The Tianning Pagoda ingeniously integrates the ancient styles of the Tang and Song dynasties, with its 14 stories and alternating design of light and dark layers. The top of the pagoda, with the highest bell and the glittering glazed Buddha statues, is truly breathtaking.
For a taste of local culture, take a stroll to Qingguo Alley at 100 Heping North Road in Tianning Street. This area embodies the rich local culture and artistic atmosphere of Changzhou, with old houses and new blocks reflecting each other. It's a perfect place to appreciate historical relics or capture modern artistic elements.
Don't forget to spend a quiet afternoon at the drip drop coffee shop, admiring the magnificent panorama of the Tianning Zen Temple from its rooftop. Also, don't miss the Changzhou Yinsi Noodle Shop next to the Tianning Zen Temple, where for just 4.5 yuan, you can savor the delicate texture and rich flavor of the authentic Yinsi noodles.
