Located in the central Hebei Plain, the ancient city of Zhengding carries the spiritual and elegant spirit of the thousand-year-old Buddhist vein. It is home to many national-level Buddhist relics such as Longxing Temple and Linji Temple, forming a unique Zen cultural landscape. Entering Longxing Temple, the Song Dynasty building complex stands tall, the 21.3-meter-high bronze Thousand-armed Guanyin looks down on all living beings with compassion, the inverted Guanyin statue is known as the "Oriental Beauty Goddess", and the wooden structure of the Wheel of Revelation is amazing. Linji Temple is the ancestral home of the Zen sect. Under the ancient blue brick tower, you can listen to the morning bell and evening drum, and experience the clear state of meditation. The Tang Dynasty bell tower and Xumi Tower of Kaiyuan Temple form a "half-Tang structure" wonder, and the relief of the strong man on the Hua Tower of Guanghui Temple fully displays the charm of Liao Dynasty carving. Visitors can participate in experience projects such as copying scriptures, Zen tea, and Buddhist music appreciation, and feel the Zen enlightenment of "Let's have tea" in the thousand-year-old temple. The Buddhist Culture Festival held every year also uses activities such as the Lantern Festival and vegetarian tasting to allow modern people to touch the spiritual core of Chinese Buddhist culture through the three dimensions of architecture, art, and rituals. This "ancient art treasure house" is waiting for the destined people to start their spiritual journey with the Zen spirit of traveling through time and space.

[Zhengding County, Hebei - Hutuo River Ecological Tourism Area]

[Zhengding County, Hebei - Hutuo River Ecological Tourism Area]

⛰[Travel Guide] The recent TV series "Hometown Soil" focuses on "land" and "food" and tells the story of three generations of farmers represented by Liang Chuangen, Chunxue, Maicha, and Tianjiao, who remain true to their original aspirations, take root in the countryside, and create a better life. Through the great changes along the Hutuo River, the series reflects the difficult process and great achievements of rural reform and opening up, and through the struggle stories of ordinary people, it reflects the people's yearning and pursuit for a better life. It was because of this TV series that I came to visit the Hutuo River! With the arrival of winter, nature seems to have changed into a new picture, and the Hutuo River Ecological Tourism Scenic Area has a unique flavor. This meandering river not only nourishes the land along the banks but also shows a quiet and mysterious beauty in winter. The first thing that catches your eye is the Hutuo Flower Sea. Although the flowers have withered in winter, the withered branches still show a different kind of beauty. Next is the Leaf Square, a landmark building in the scenic area. It is not only unique in appearance but also a place for various cultural activities. Here, you can take a break or participate in interactive activities on the square to experience the unique charm of Hutuo River culture. Strolling along the banks of the Hutuo River, you can admire the Hutuo Imprint, which features a series of sculptures and landscapes that showcase the historical and cultural heritage of the Hutuo River. Through these artworks, you can gain a deeper understanding of the historical origins of this river with Shijiazhuang and even Hebei.

There are two Confucian temples in one city, and the earliest Dacheng Hall discovered by Liang Sicheng is also hidden

There are two Confucian temples in one city, and the earliest Dacheng Hall discovered by Liang Sicheng is also hidden

Zhengding is really a treasure city. In addition to Longxing Temple and Four Pagodas, Zhengding Confucian Temple is also a heavyweight cultural relic. The key is that there are two Confucian temples in Zhengding, one is the prefectural Confucian temple, and the other is the county Confucian temple. Both are not far away, and they can be taken down together when citywalking. The first stop is Zhengding County Confucian Temple. Although its 'administrative level' is lower than Zhengding Prefectural Confucian Temple, its cultural relic value is much higher, because the Dacheng Hall of Zhengding County Confucian Temple is one of the few 'Five Dynasties' period buildings in China, and its age is even earlier than that of Qufu Confucian Temple Dacheng Hall. In 1933, when Liang Sicheng first came to Zhengding, he went to the county Confucian temple, which was then Zhengding Women's Rural Normal School. When Liang Sicheng entered the school gate, he accidentally discovered this Dacheng Hall with five rooms, which was extraordinary in its eaves and brackets. Although the 'Zhengding County Chronicles' records that the county Confucian temple was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Liang Sicheng did not agree, 'Comparing the exterior of this hall with the buildings in the Dunhuang murals, I suspect that it is a relic of the late Tang and Five Dynasties. If fortunately confirmed, then among all the ancient buildings in Zhengding, ... this hall should be the oldest.' The Dacheng Hall we see now is the biggest highlight of the county Confucian temple, but the exterior is slightly new, which is a bit disappointing. The hall is built on a half-meter high platform. It is five rooms wide and three rooms deep. It has a single eave and a hipped roof. The slope of the roof is gentle and stretched, the eaves are deep, and the wing corners are slightly upturned. From the outside, the brackets are indeed huge, without too much fancy decoration, clean and neat, which is similar to the bell tower of Kaiyuan Temple, and is a major feature of the wooden structure buildings in the early Song Dynasty or before the Song Dynasty. As for the statues and plaques inside, most of them were added from the Qing Dynasty to recent years, and there are not many highlights. Compared with the county Confucian temple, the prefectural Confucian temple is even more miserable. Even the Dacheng Hall does not exist. Only the halberd gate and its east and west ear rooms are preserved. Fortunately, the halberd gate is the only Yuan Dynasty building in Zhengding City, and it is also the biggest highlight of the prefectural Confucian temple. The halberd gate is located in the front part of the central axis of the prefectural Confucian temple, facing north and south, five rooms wide and two rooms deep. It is a single-eave hanging mountain green tile roof building. The beam frame structure is a six-beam house divided into three columns. There are brackets under the front and rear eaves. The brackets are distributed sparsely, with three each in the middle and the middle, and two each in the next slightly room. The style is four-paved single-down ang. There are photos of the halberd gate before the renovation of the prefectural Confucian temple. In fact, it has nothing to do with the gate, but a few old houses. It is really hard to see the current shape. It is really a miracle to be able to preserve it. 🏠Name | Zhengding County Confucian Temple/Prefectural Confucian Temple 🎫Ticket | Free ⛳Address | Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang City 🚗Traffic | Navigate to 'Zhengding County Confucian Temple/Prefectural Confucian Temple'

This ancient pagoda with its unique design, which has stood for a millennium, has been praised by Liang Sicheng as a unique example within China

This ancient pagoda with its unique design, which has stood for a millennium, has been praised by Liang Sicheng as a unique example within China

After all, although the four pagodas of Zhengding each have their own merits, if you were to ask which one is particularly memorable and eye-catching, it would definitely be the Hua Pagoda of Guanghui Temple. Even Liang Sicheng himself noted in 'A Record of the Survey of Ancient Buildings in Zhengding' that 'from the perspective of its design, this Hua Pagoda may well be a unique example within China. Both its plan and exterior are equally peculiar.' During this City Walk in Zhengding, by the time we reached Guanghui Temple, dusk had already fallen. Through the red walls outside the temple, one could only see the top of the ancient pagoda bathed in the twilight of the setting sun, true to its name. The Hua Pagoda, also known as the Flower Pagoda, blooms like a bouquet, radiating a magnificent form and golden light. The Flower Pagoda is one of the classic designs of Buddhist pagodas in our country, first appearing in the Tang Dynasty and becoming popular during the Song, Liao, and Jin periods. Today, the remaining Flower Pagodas are mostly located in the northern regions of China, and they are quite rare. The Hua Pagoda of Guanghui Temple in Zhengding, with its lavish and richly decorated facade, is recognized as a typical representative of similar structures in China. Upon entering Guanghui Temple, the entire Hua Pagoda is fully revealed. It turns out that the Flower Pagoda seen from outside the wall is just the very top layer of the pagoda. In fact, the whole Hua Pagoda has four levels, an octagonal brick-carved pagoda imitating a wooden pavilion style, consisting of the main pagoda and attached smaller pagodas. The whole is constructed with blue-gray grooved bricks and yellow earth, giving it a slightly odd appearance, somewhat reminiscent of the Vajra Throne Pagoda we saw before. From historical inscriptions, we know that the Hua Pagoda of Guanghui Temple was originally built during the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era, with the existing main pagoda body rebuilt during the Jin Dynasty's Dading period (1161-1189). However, some scholars believe that the first and second levels of the pagoda are remnants of the Song Dynasty. The first level of the Hua Pagoda's main body is octagonal, with doors on the four main sides and a brick-built flat base on the eaves. At each corner, there is a hexagonal pavilion-like single-layered small pagoda that encircles the first and second levels of the main pagoda, creating a staggered height and a sense of primary and secondary dependency. The second level has a door on the front side, with Buddha niches on the other sides. The third level sits on a wide base, and because there are no surrounding galleries, it suddenly narrows. The fourth level of the Hua Pagoda is where the essence of the pagoda lies, and it is also the first glimpse of the pagoda seen from outside the wall. The body of the pagoda is conical, with relief sculptures all around. The layout follows an octagonal pattern with figures such as warriors, sea creatures, lions, elephants, Buddhas, and Bodhisattvas vividly sculpted and orderly arranged, resembling a colorful miniature sculpture art palace. Above this is the top level of the pagoda, with a high-rising octagonal blue tile roof, crowned with an upturned lotus and a jewel at the very top. As one of the main structures of Guanghui Temple, there should have originally been a Hall of Heavenly Kings and a front hall in front of the Hua Pagoda, and a rear hall behind it, but now the other buildings of the temple have been destroyed, leaving only the Hua Pagoda standing alone. It is said that there is a pagoda heart chamber on the third level, with two stone-carved Shakyamuni Buddha statues in front of the north wall, and an inscription on the Buddha base indicating that the statues were made for Emperor Taizong's birthday in the second year of the Zhenguan era. Unfortunately, the pagoda heart is no longer open to the public. Of course, if you're just here for photography, you don't actually need to buy a ticket to enter; the area outside the red wall is the standard spot for checking in, constantly occupied by various internet celebrities. Climbing up the Zhengding South City Wall also allows for a complete view of the Hua Pagoda, especially when it's lit up at night, it's even more beautiful. 🏠Name | Guanghui Temple Hua Pagoda 🎫Ticket | 15 yuan ⛳Address | No.1 Guanghui Road, Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang City 🚗Transportation | Navigate to 'Guanghui Temple Hua Pagoda'

Shijiazhuang | 9 Check-in Spots for Nezha Fans (Photo Ops & Stamps)

Shijiazhuang | 9 Check-in Spots for Nezha Fans (Photo Ops & Stamps)

There are more and more Nezha check-in spots popping up in Shijiazhuang. At this rate, it's going to become "Nezha City"! I've compiled a list of 9️⃣ photo spots and 2️⃣ stamp locations. Get ready for a Nezha-themed city walk! 📷|Photo Spots 1️⃣ Opposite Liri Qingcheng Residential Area, Cangfeng Road, Zhaoying Street 2️⃣ Southwest and northwest corners of Fuqiang Street and Tanan Road 3️⃣ Qingyuan Residential Area, Donggang Road, Fuqiang Street 4️⃣ Shigang Industrial Ruins Park, Tangu North Street 5️⃣ Qianhuiyuan Community Service Center, 177 Ziqiang Road 6️⃣ Parking lot of Beiguo Yi'an Shopping Mall, intersection of Jianguo Road and Zhonghua Street 7️⃣ Approx. 100 meters south of Exit B, Xisanjiao Subway Station, intersection of Huaxing Road and Zhonghua Street 8️⃣ Outer wall of the North Campus of Elite Huatang Art Vocational High School, intersection of Xishi North Road and West Second Ring Road 9️⃣ Yifan Art Studio, Shiluan Street 📔|🆓Stamps 1️⃣ Candy Box Store in Sicily Town, Wanda Plaza, Yuhua District 2️⃣ Activity Room on the second floor of Building B, Shijiazhuang Library (New Zhengding Branch) (May also be in Building A) ❤️|Photo Tips: 1️⃣ Fewer crowds on weekdays than weekends. 2️⃣ Better lighting for photos during the day. 3️⃣ Photo spots in Shigang Industrial Ruins Park are scattered, so you'll need to search for them (most are concentrated in the building shaped like a "Z"). 4️⃣ There's only one mural at Ziqiang Road, and it's easily blocked by cars. 5️⃣ The one near Xisanjiao Subway Station is a printed canvas, similar to the one at Yi'an Shopping Mall. Both are in parking lots and can be easily obscured. 6️⃣ Overall, I personally recommend spots 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 for photos. ❤️|Stamp Tips: 1️⃣ Note that the library stamp is only available at the new Zhengding branch during weekend activity hours (2:30–3:30 pm). Confirm whether it's in Building A or B upon arrival. 2️⃣ Bring your own notebook for both stamp locations. The Candy Box Store also sells notebooks. 3️⃣ The new library branch is far away and the stamping time is limited, so I don't think it's worth a special trip.
