Zen Hotspring Resort Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
【Song Dynasty Tea Ceremony】Take the time of a cup of tea to return to the elegance of the Song era
Tea became popular in the Tang Dynasty, and flourished in the Song.
The Song Dynasty had four elegances: "burning incense, brewing tea, hanging paintings, arranging flowers."
Brewing tea was the art of tea ceremony for the Song people,
and also a reflection of the elegant life of the Song era.
Using tea as ink, painting in the tea soup,
the Song people expressed the landscapes in their hearts in the tea and in their paintings,
encapsulating romance within the teacup.
A cup, a pot, a scoop, a refined event,
Take the time of a cup of tea,
to feel the mood of one person with one tea,
Elegance is, after all, ordinary,
The greatest taste in life is the joy of simplicity.
Yunfu Guide | Meditate in the Zen hall to gain insight and balance yourself during vacation
This year's first Dragon year, Dragon month, Dragon day, and Dragon hour, meditate in the Zen hall to gain insight and balance yourself.
·
Meditating and comprehending the way is to sit cross-legged and cultivate Zen understanding. It is not only one of the main methods of practice but also a way of healing, treating diseases, cultivating oneself, nurturing nature, and maintaining health. The Zen Quan Resort's meditation calendar includes this Zen meditation course, where staying guests can go to the Zen hall for a free experience, or they can ask meditation instructors for guidance. They will tell you the methods and significance of meditation.
·
When meditating and gaining insight, one must be like an old monk, with eyes on the nose, nose on the heart, sitting alone in a quiet room with soft light, circulating air, and moderate temperature. After going through several steps such as crossing legs and forming seals, loosening clothing, shaking the body and rubbing hands, wrapping knees thoroughly, and keeping the chest flat and spine straight, one can achieve smooth breathing and undistracted mind-watching.
·
Through the mental strength cultivated in meditation and insight, we can be clear-minded and fully observe the inner self and the external world, returning to the original joy of life. No matter how the external circumstances change, we stay with this joy, unshakably, and freely follow the circumstances, finding back the true self in its real sense.

Guoen Temple Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Yunfu Guoen Temple, the hometown of the Sixth Patriarch
During the early Tang Dynasty, there were two great monks, one was Xuanzang, and the other was Huineng. It was really Huineng who influenced later generations with his thoughts, from China, to Japan, to the West, including Steve Jobs, and even the iPhone that wrote this article.
In traditional Chinese culture, individuals admire poetry and Zen, even though law and Confucianism dominate Chinese politics and social life.
From Hubei, through Hunan, Guizhou, Guangxi to Guangdong, it has been more than two weeks, and for the first time I stayed in the same place for two nights, which is in Yunfu Xinxing, in order to experience the tradition of Zen.
The ancient temple named after the country
Guoen Temple was founded in the first year of Hongdao of the Tang Dynasty, located at the foot of Longshan Mountain in Xinxing County, originally named Baoen Temple. Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, Li Xian, named it "Guoen Temple". This is the birthplace and place of nirvana of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng, with the fragrant litchi tree planted by the Sixth Patriarch himself, and the spring water from the ground where the tin rod was placed...
This ancient temple of more than 1,300 years is known as the "First Sacred Land of Lingnan".
Yunfu Guoen Temple: The quiet beauty of the thousand-year-old temple
In this impetuous society, people must have faith to be calm, no longer irritated.
I heard that Yunfu has a thousand-year-old temple that is very effective. The adults come to pay homage to the temple. The Guoen Temple and Guangzhou Guangxiao Temple and Shaoguan Nanhua Temple are called the "Three Great Fathers of the Six ancestors". The temple is dedicated to Fobao relics and six. Zu Hui can be a golden body, as well as the ancestors of the five ancestors, such as the and Wu Zetians handwriting, the title of Guo'en Temple and other cultural relics.
Guon Temple does not need tickets. After entering, you will be burned with incense and donate some incense money. There are few tourists in the temple and the scenery is beautiful and quiet.
The Enta is the tallest building in the temple, and you can climb the tower to overlook the entire temple.
We also went to see the millennium ancient banyan tree, which is said to have been planted by the master of the six ancestors Huineng. The lychee produced by the old trees every year is very sweet and sweet.
Yunfu Guoen Temple: A place where wishes can be realized
I heard that Yunfu Guoen Temple is very effective. Many people come to seek Buddhas and often think of things.
Guonen Temple is located at the foot of Longshan Mountain in Liuzu Town, Yunfu Xinxing County. The temple is dedicated to the Buddha Baoli, the six ancestors, Huineng Jinshen, and the statues of the five ancestors, the and the Wuze Tianshou Book. "The title and other cultural relics."
The whole temple is built on the mountain, with a building area of more than 10,000 square meters and a paddy field of up to 1,800 acres. The tree of the mountain gate is covered with a blessing bag, and it is entrusted by many pilgrims.
If you have time, you can climb up to the Enta overlooking the temple. The tower is very narrow and can only accommodate one person up and down. You need to line up and go. The sister is too fat to go!

Xiangwo Mountain Ecological Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Xiangwo Mountain is located in Xinxing County, Yunfu City, Guangdong Province. It is a natural place under the sky. There is a Zen Tea Museum where you can experience authentic tea culture. When it collides with the Zen culture, it has more details. Because Xiangwo Mountain is not only the hometown of tea, but also a holy place of Zen. The most famous sorghum in Buddhism in China, the hometown of the six ancestors Huineng is emerging, so there is a deep Zen culture here. Like the nest of the paradise, it is enough to accommodate your heart. Blowing the air, looking at the tea garden, the product, no one will want to leave easily.
When the sky is not bright at 4 o'clock in the morning, climb along the hiking trail to the flying silkworm hill to watch the sunrise, just because the sunrise here is like a colorful dream. Before sunrise, the coolness of the air infiltrated into the collar, which quickly drove away the heat of the trek. Walking in the mountains, the taste of nature wraps you. The scenery in front of us keeps changing with the pace, and people dont see enough. After waiting for a long time, the sun finally came out, separated by a layer of fog, not very clear, only the halo of the ripples, but even more people want to find out. There are some old defensive walls on the Flying Silk Mountain, and the locals are called the Great Wall. In the light of the morning light, it reflects the traces of the years. Wall holes are the best framing frames, framed by a small piece of gentle to the ultimate world. The faint color casts a faint mourning on the whole picture. Ascending the distance, thousands of landscapes have become a small place visible at the moment; the nearby vegetation is quite complete. This feeling makes people feel that they are small and the world is vast.
Where are you going to play this National Day? I am on vacation at Xiangwo Mountain Ecological Park. In the morning, fly to Tianshang Mountain to watch the sunrise. After going down the mountain, go to the tea garden to pick up tea, visit the Zen Tea Museum, and learn about the culture and history of Zen tea. In the afternoon, go to the heated swimming pool, or relax with a tea and spring, and the children can also go to the water park. In the evening, enjoy the sunset of Yuehu Lake while eating on the terrace of the cafeteria. Watch a movie at night or attend a bonfire party. In addition to the ordinary rooms, Xiangwo Hotel has a star room and can watch the stars in bed. There are also apartments that are suitable for a family size. Before you go, buy some tea like tea, and taste the sun. This holiday is so happy!
Xiangwo Mountain used to be the place where the educated youth cut the queue. Here, the Educated Youth Tea Farm was set up. Although there is no educated youth, the tea farm has been preserved. The oldest tea tree is 66 years old. Go, pick tea together!

Sheraton Yunfu Xinxing Hotel Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
An unexpected surprise, the Sheraton Yunfu Xinxing
After a long return journey, I randomly chose a midway stop, the Sheraton Yunfu Xinxing, and to my surprise, it was full of delights, which made me give it a thumbs up👍
Surprise 1: The executive suite is fully equipped, with an excellent layout, and the service is intangible but on point.
Surprise 2: As a county, Xinxing is very orderly. Whether it's motorcycles or cars waiting for traffic lights, or pedestrians, everyone consciously abides by the basic requirements of stopping at red lights and going at green lights, which many cities struggle to implement. Here, everything is in perfect order.
Surprise 3: The streets and shops in Xinxing are very clean, achieving a no-littering standard, which is surprising for a county.
Surprise 4: The nearby residence of the Sixth Patriarch and the Guo'en Temple are awe-inspiring. As a giant who influenced Buddhism, the Sixth Patriarch's impact on Xinxing and its people is also immense. The public is orderly, friendly, and clean, which is quite rare.
So many surprises, and it seems that not much is said about the hotel itself, but all these surprises are closely related to the hotel. The hotel also makes one feel a sense of tranquility, all part of the hotel's character, blending in with Xinxing.
Yunfu specialties: ancient French roast goose and seafood feast
want to eat Yunfu specialties, it is better to come to Yunfu New Sheraton Hotel. Cai Yue Xuan Chinese Restaurant specializes in Cantonese cuisine, using Yunfu local ingredients and seafood to prepare dishes according to seasonal seasons. The taste is fresh and mellow.
Shunde fish is hottest and the most delicious, it seems to be broth and water, but the food is rich. The dragon simmered with the steamed taste, the taste of the sauce was just right, and the fish was sweet and sweet. The nine-section shrimp fried in crispy flesh, with a gold-free, buttery aroma, and oatmeal! The
sea salt glass pigeon is as crunchy as the candied fruit, and the gravy will be sprayed out after the bite. Like to eat roast goose and fear of fat, the ancient method of roast goose after charcoal grilling, the subcutaneous fat is completely, the goose is soft and smooth and not greasy.
The chicken that is steamed out from Changbai Mountain fresh ginseng, the skin is smooth and delicious, not only clear and healthy, but also nourishing health.
On the weekends, Yunfu floated for two days and one night, staying in the river view room to watch the spring blossoms
weekend to take the family to Yunfu to play, two days and one night tour is very enjoyable. The Sheraton Yunfu Hotel, which we stayed in, is inspired by the scenery of Yunfu Mountain. The design from the lobby to the guest rooms incorporates Zen elements, and every detail is full of Zen.
95% or more rooms have high light levels and overlook the superb river view. The executive suites are large, and the living room, bedroom and bathroom can all be seen in the emerging river. The floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides of the bedroom are invincible and the sunshine is bright and pleasant. The bathing supplies are imported from Sweden. Relax in the evening bath and have a light fragrance. The
fitness center is open 24 hours, and the above yoga classes are available. The indoor heated swimming pool is not very quiet. One person swims and relaxes, relieves physical and mental stress.
These days, I traveled in Yunfu, eating lunch and dinner outside, and eating at the feast of the Western Restaurant, and I can see the emerging river view. The Chinese and Western breakfasts are rich and varied. The open kitchen is cooked on the spot. The noodles, pancakes and omelettes are cooked to order. There are many varieties of salads and the snacks are exquisite and delicious. Sheraton Yunfu Hotel has 3 restaurants, 1 bar and 1160 square meters of pillarless grand ballroom. After dinner, go to the yoga room, fitness center or indoor swimming pool, keep your body in order to work hard to get rich, not fat, hahaha!
