Travel with Black Myth: Wukong to Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou!

Following the filming locations of Black Myth: Wukong, I arrived at Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou! ► One of the Top Ten Ancient Temples ▪ Lingyin Temple was built in the first year of the Xianhe period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it has a history of about 1,700 years, making it the earliest famous temple in Hangzhou. ▪ During Emperor Kangxi's southern tour, he bestowed the name "Yunlin Chan Temple". ► Feilai Peak ▪ Lingyin Temple is one of the "Five Mountains" of Zen Buddhism in the Jiangnan region, with Feilai Peak being the foremost of the Five Mountains. ▪ Feilai Peak is located at the entrance of the temple. The stone carvings on the mountain are quite notable, with a giant Maitreya Buddha statue serving as the prototype in the Black Myth: Wukong game. ▪ Due to long-term erosion by underground water, many fantastical and varied caves have formed on Feilai Peak, each with its own history. ► Worship and Offer Incense ▪ When visiting Lingyin Temple, you must offer incense and worship Buddha. Following the sequence of burning incense first and then worshiping Buddha, start from the incense burner square and proceed through the Hall of Heavenly Kings, the Mahavira Hall, the Hall of Medicine Buddha, the Direct Point Hall (Dharma Hall), and the Huayan Hall along the central axis. The main halls are flanked by the Hall of Five Hundred Arhats, the Hall of Ji Gong, the Lantern Pavilion, the Huayan Pavilion, the Great Compassion Building, the Abbot's Building, and other structures. If time permits, you can worship at each one. ▪ Do you remember the song "Shoes are torn, hat is torn, the robe on the body is torn"? In the TV series "Living Buddha Ji Gong", the Living Buddha Ji Gong was originally ordained at Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, and the series was also filmed at Lingyin Temple. ► Can Be Visited Together with Faxi Temple After visiting Lingyin Temple, you can continue to Faxi Temple. You can take a special bus to Faxi Temple for 5 yuan per person, or walk for 15 minutes. ► Tickets: Lingyin Temple 30 yuan, Feilai Peak ticket: 45 yuan
