Nanputuo to the south, Hongluo to the north! A must-visit for seeking blessings and love! A grand guide to beautiful scenery!

Beijing Hongluo Temple, located in Huairou District, is a historic Buddhist sanctuary. With towering ancient trees and a serene environment, the temple, with its red walls and green tiles, is bustling with incense offerings. It is an ideal place to seek inner peace. The solemn and majestic statue of Guanyin in the temple commands respect. Whether you come for faith or to appreciate the beauty of the ancient temple, Hongluo Temple is a place worth visiting. How to enjoy Hongluo Temple in summer? Look here • Imperial Bamboo Forest: The bamboo forest in front of the mountain gate was planted by Zen Master Yunshan in the Yuan Dynasty, over 600 years ago. The green bamboo remains lush, and even in the height of summer, a cool breeze greets you here. • Male and Female Ginkgo Trees: It is said that these two ginkgo trees are over 1,100 years old. Although autumn is the best season to see ginkgo, in summer, the 30-meter-tall ginkgo leaves drape over the temple tiles. The red walls, green tiles, and lush tree shade, accompanied by the chirping of cicadas and birds, give the summer here a unique charm! • Wisteria on Pine: In the courtyard of the Three Saints Hall, there is a "Wisteria on Pine" landscape composed of a flat-topped pine and two wisteria vines. The old tree and withered vines have a very unique appearance. Although you can't see the wisteria in full bloom, the green vines in summer are as beautiful as a fairyland. • Mountain Cable Car: Hongluo Mountain is not high, but the presence of the cable car adds endless fun to climbing! The cable car allows for easy travel up and down the mountain. Enjoy the scenic beauty leisurely on the way up, and experience the thrill of sharp turns and descents on the way down! • Mountain Path: Upon reaching the top, we can continue climbing along the mountain path to the summit, enjoying the scenic beauty of the forest. Of course, it's also a great spot for photography! • Hongluo Spring: At the foot of the mountain, the clear waters of Hongluo Spring and the sculpture and legend of the Hongluo Maiden make this a must-visit spot in summer.

Burn three sticks of civilized incense with sincere heart. Offer three sticks in front of the Mahavira Hall, and perform other worship with hands clasped. First stick in the middle, second stick on the right, third stick on the left. Five Must-Do Things: 1. Hit the copper eye - brings wealth, women bring wealth and nobility, 2. Ring the bell beside the mountain gate - brings good fortune, peace, and happiness. As the saying goes, the sound of the bell dispels worries, 3. Release koi in Hongluo Lake - doing good deeds brings good luck, 4. The ribbons at Hongluo Temple can also be used to seek love, 5. Fulfill your wish and then repay. Personally, besides spring and summer, I strongly recommend the autumn ginkgo season for its stunning beauty and photo opportunities. 📣📣📣📣 Practical Information: ✍🏻 Address: No. 2, Hongluo East Road, Luzhuang Village, Huairou Town, Huairou District ⏰ Opening Hours: 8:30-17:30 (last entry at 16:00) 🎫 Ticket: 54 yuan 🎫 Slide: One-way 70 yuan/person, round-trip 100 yuan/person 🅿️ 20 yuan per session Finally, I wish everyone all the best, with success in love and career
