Travel notes on Xilitu Zhao in Hohhot.

20240929 After the rain in Hohhot in the morning, the temperature dropped even lower, so I decided to have lunch before going out. So I found a very famous Shao Mai restaurant nearby, but I really liked their lamb spine hot pot, so I ate a large pot of lamb spine and side dishes by myself, and then drank all the soup, and felt warm all over. Next to the restaurant is Xilitu Zhao, the ticket is CNY 25. "Xilitu" means "Dharma seat" in Tibetan, and "Zhao" means "temple", so the "Zhao" we heard is actually a Tibetan temple. Xilitu Zhao is a Gelug temple of Tibetan Buddhism. I have read a novel "Blue Lotus" before, which mentioned the Sakya Sect and the Gelug Sect, and suddenly felt that the distant sects mentioned in the book were concrete.
