A thousand-year-old temple more "stunning" than a 5A scenic spot

Known as the "Buddhist Kingdom on Water," it's even more spectacular than the Hall of Supreme Harmony in Beijing 😭 Chongyuan Temple by Yangcheng Lake is far more stunning than I imagined... Built during the reign of Emperor Wu of Liang, it has been a popular pilgrimage site ever since It is also home to the tallest indoor Guanyin statue in China From above, the temple looks like Guanyin sitting on a lotus . 📍Chongyuan Temple ⌛️Opening hours: 07:30–16:30, open during Spring Festival 🎫Tickets: Book 1 day in advance for 15💰 🚗Drive to Chongyuan Temple Parking Lot, 3💰 per 30 mins 🕐Duration: 2h ✔️Tips: Everyone knows that the vegetarian noodles at Xiyuan Temple are famous, but the vegetarian noodles at Chongyuan Temple's Xiangji Kitchen are even better. It's just that it's far from the city center, so fewer people go there. It's available from 9:00–14:00 every day, so give it a try if you go~ .
