Mianning-Lingshan Temple
Hidden and unassuming, in the deep old forest of the western foothills of Xiaoxiangling, the incense is not affected by the remote and high ridge, it's truly a treasure land.
During the Qianlong period, Buddhist disciple Yang Xuexin (Dharma name Wuzhen) traveled through the 'Four Famous Mountains' and passed by Mianning Lingshan. He saw detailed clouds covering it, and was moved by the unique and strange scenery of Lingshan, so he decided to build a temple in Lingshan for quiet cultivation. It took 15 years to build the Lingshan Temple, and he preached for 21 springs and autumns, with 48 disciples. In 1804, after his death, his body did not decay and was worshipped by disciples in the Buddha Hall for 160 years. Moreover, he left a spectacular 'Seven Stars Holding the Moon' temple for future generations, and created the temple style of 'Goodness is the Best, Forever Tied to Lingguang' for future generations.
Wandering Wine and Dine
Lingshan Temple‖"The first spirit in the world, the first mountain in the south of Sichuan, the first temple in Panxi"
Lingshan Temple is located in Mianning County, Liangshan Prefecture, Sichuan Province. It is 365 kilometers away from downtown Chengdu, 8 kilometers away from Mianning County, and 80 kilometers away from the capital of Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture. Because it is closely backed by the towering mountain called Lingshan, it is called Lingshan Temple.
Lingshan Temple was built during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It is the most famous temple in Liangshan Prefecture, and it is known as the "first spirit in the world, the first mountain in the south of Sichuan, the first temple in Panxi" because of its responsiveness.
The scenery of Lingshan Temple is beautiful, with green mountains and trees all year round, clouds and mists, and the changes in the cloud layer are dazzling and spectacular.
After sunrise or sunset, the sunlight is like thousands of golden lights, like a myriad of rosy clouds, dyeing the white clouds in the sky colorful, and reflecting the Lingshan Temple golden, as if the entire Lingshan Temple is covered with gold gauze at that moment.
Being in the morning clouds and evening fog of Lingshan Temple, listening to the morning bell and evening drum, stopping, you can unload the fatigue, and quietly appreciate the natural landscape of Lingshan Temple is a kind of healing.
