Suzhou | Xiyuan Temple | Find a Moment of Tranquility

In Suzhou, there is a pure land where the soul can rest—Xiyuan Temple. As you step into the temple, the lingering scent of sandalwood seems to have traveled through millennia, instantly enveloping the worldly disturbances. The yellow walls and black tiles, with their flying eaves and upturned corners, are all imbued with the frost of time, shining brightly under the sunlight. Inside the temple, ancient trees tower into the sky, their branches and leaves swaying, casting mottled shadows like a Zen painting drawn by nature. The Hall of Five Hundred Arhats is solemn and majestic, with each Buddha statue having a different expression, as if whispering the Buddhist chants of the past. In the pond, turtles and fish swim leisurely, creating gentle ripples on the water's surface, spreading circles of tranquility and peace. Here, you can listen to the echoes of your heart amidst the lingering Buddhist chants, temporarily forgetting worldly thoughts beside the ancient Buddha, and finding a place of clarity and peace. Why not choose a sunny day to visit Xiyuan Temple for a date with your soul, to enjoy the scenery and understand Zen, and find a corner of tranquility in the bustling world? Would you like to come here to find your heart?
