Impression of Quzhou: The world's largest root carving museum, "Root Palace Buddha Country".

These days, the temperature in Quzhou and Kaihua has been around 37°, to facilitate the tour of the Buddhist country of Gengong, we stayed in a hotel across the block from the scenic spot. At about 8 am, we entered the park from the south gate, there were very few people, slowly walking, quietly watching. Entering the south gate, climbing up the steps, 2 huge root carvings as standing pillars, supporting as soon as you enter the main gate, the palace of roots, the kingdom of Buddha, all the shocking pavement comes. Then enter the Buddhist Culture Root Carving Art Museum, the earliest area of ​​the Gengong Buddhist Kingdom, with more than 1,000 giant root carving works. Inside the Wu Buddha Happy Pavilion, a total of 15 groups and 81 Maitreya group root carvings, implying "nine-nine to one", the various forms of laughing Buddhas are lifelike, marveling at the craftsmanship, while relaxing the mood. To get to the Zuigen Pagoda in District 2, you have to walk the 680-meter-long corridor built along the hillside, also known as the Rohan Cultural Corridor. The five hundred Rohan root carvings are majestic and elegant. We also visited the Zuigen Pagoda in District 2, saw Qingmei Garden and Yunhu Zen Heart, and then entered the Huaxia Culture Root Sculpture Art Museum in District 3 (described in another article). The Buddhist country of Gengong, started as a small root carving workshop in the 1990s, completed a district in the first 10 years, became the only 5A-level scenic spot in Kaihua County in the second 10 years, and became a state-owned sole proprietorship in Kaihua County in the third 10 years and received the Guinness World Record, founder Xu Guqing outstanding achievements. Later travel itinerary, we stayed in a B&B, the owner is a carpenter, he gossip Xu Guqing, said that in the circle of Kaihua carpenters, said that Lao Xu is not into the circle of fools, one mind doing root carving, backed a lot of debt, poor I can't even afford to marry a daughter-in-law. Later, the county state-owned capital invested, until the last 120 million yuan to acquire Lao Xu's shares became a sole proprietorship, Lao Xu is now considered to have turned over. Visited the shocking Gengong Buddhist Kingdom, combined with Master Xu's experience of enduring success, and feel that it is a very worth visiting scenic spot, see the scenery people, very thick!
