Chengdu Wenshu Monastery was originally named "Xinxiang Temple" and was built during the Daye period of the Sui Dynasty (605-617). It was rebuilt by Zen Master Ci Du during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. Emperor Kangxi bestowed the plaque "Konglin" on it. Since then, it has become a major Buddhist town. In 1983, it was listed as a national key Buddhist temple in the Han area. It is still the top of the four major Zen temples in the Yangtze River Basin. Wenshu Monastery not only demonstrates the profound Buddhist cultural heritage and inherits the thousand-year Zen lineage, but also continues to promote the popularization and exchange of Buddhist education; great wisdom is practiced in public welfare and charity, embodying the core spirit of compassion and wisdom. As a spiritual home in the city, Wenshu Monastery provides a quiet and peaceful place in the bustling and noisy city, allowing people to cultivate their minds and return to their original appearance. It has become an important place for modern people to find spiritual settlement. The extremely precious and rare Buddha relics, the parietal relic of Master Xuanzang, collectively known as the "Two Saints of Konglin" (only open for viewing on certain holidays), Sichuan opera chants and Laba Festival temple fairs (intangible cultural heritage), "Eight Views of Konglin" and other sacred objects are all treasures here. Our group of five walked slowly along the streets and alleys into the silent Wenshu Temple. A drizzle fell quietly, as if the sky had mercy and the nectar sprinkled the soul. The drizzle knocked off the green tiles, whispered between the cracks in the stone, and the mood gradually became clear. Prajna (wisdom) is quietly hidden in the corner and in the daily scenery. The troubles of the world are like floating clouds; a drizzle gently brushes the tiles and washes away the noise. We also found that believers often perform two indispensable rituals when worshiping Buddha in Wenshu Temple. The first is to touch the word "Fu" on the door railing of the main hall, which means to welcome blessings into the home and heart, and pray for blessings, good fortune, peace and health; the second is to touch the auspicious and gentle, round and full bronze statue of the Qilin in front of the Dharma Hall, to pray for wealth and a smooth life. Interestingly, because these two Qilins have been touched by countless believers for many years, their bronze surfaces have long been polished to a bright and transparent state, becoming the most popular "pets" of Wenshu Temple. They not only condense people's wishes for auspiciousness and Prajna, but also add a friendly atmosphere and a gathering of spiritual energy to the temple. #Chengdu Wenshu Temple #Konglin Ersheng #Qilin Bronze Statue #Xinxiang Temple #Zen #Spatial Art #Spiritual Healing Attractions #Buddhist Architectural Aesthetics

Chengdu Huanglongxi Happy Pastoral Guide | An Underrated Kid-Friendly Paradise, So Fun You'll Want to Visit Again and Again! 🥳 I'd long heard that Huanglongxi Happy Pastoral was dubbed the "Disneyland of the countryside," but it wasn't until I experienced it firsthand that I truly understood—this is no ordinary farm! It's as if nature and childlike wonder have been woven into reality! 🌿 As a Chengdu local, I can count on one hand the places that truly leave me in awe, and this is definitely one of them!

The bus drivers are super friendly! 🚌 👶 Kid-Friendly Zones Where They'll Play All Day Without Wanting to Leave! - Luxi Pasture: Promise me you'll visit! You can feed alpacas, ponies, and cows by hand! 🐑 The alpacas will chase you for treats, and their soft fur is a joy to pet. The giant straw castle in the pasture offers a panoramic view of the fields from the top, and kids love crawling through it—their laughter carries far and wide! - Rainbow Slide: A 100-meter-long colorful slide fun for both kids and adults! The speed is just right—not too thrilling. My kid went down five times in a row, shouting, "Again!" The wind rushing past as you slide is incredibly relaxing. 🌈 - Water Engineering Zone: Features mini dams and canals where kids can play "flood control" with shovels and buckets! Splashing around here in summer is pure bliss—just remember to bring an extra set of clothes, or they'll be soaked on the way home. 💦 📸 Photo Spots for Stunning Countryside Shots - Butterfly Love Flower Art Gallery: Indoors, mirrors and floral installations make it feel like you've stepped into a fairy's home!

Nature lovers who like to visit parks, if you have a chance to visit Chengdu, please consider adding “Dagu Pingchuan” or “Dagu Glacier” to your list..🗻 Dagu Pingchuan is a park where it snows all year round. The peak where people can go up to take pictures is at an altitude of 4860 m, the highest elevation in Chengdu..🌳 This park is located in Heishui City. On this Chengdu trip, we will spend about 2 days and 1 night in this city. ⊹ On the first day, we arrived in Heishui at around 3 pm, so we called DiDi to our accommodation. ⊹ We walked around taking pictures of the view around our accommodation. The light was very beautiful. The camera was bright and the colors were beautiful. The weather was just right, around 10 degrees. ⊹ The weather here gets colder as it gets later. We put a bottle of water outside the window and it turned into cold water. But the heater in the room was very warm. We slept well. ⊹ On the morning of the second day, we woke up early to go to the park because we were afraid that there would be a lot of people + we would travel to another city that afternoon. So we had to make up some time. ⊹ The temperature in front of the park that morning was -2 degrees, but the wind wasn't too strong. —- ⊹ The outfit I wore to face the weather that day was 👚 Heattech 1 + Heattech turtleneck 2 + thick woolen outer shirt 3 👖 For the lower body, I wore a Heattech inner shirt + a pair of jeans on the outside 👟 I wore another pair of thick long socks and then put on sneakers —- ⊹ At the bottom of the park, I still felt that the outfit I wore that day was still enough. I could still walk and take pictures normally ⊹ When I took the cable car to the top, the temperature increased to 0 degrees. From the numbers, it should be warmer, but in reality, it was colder than before. It was warmer because the sun on the mountain was very strong, but the cold wind up there was very strong. Especially with all the snow around, the wind blew even colder. ⊹ Because the sun was very strong, I didn't really check the pictures when I took the pictures. Because I couldn't see the screen, I focused on pressing as many buttons as I could and then choosing later. ⊹ We spent about 2 hours on the mountain because we had taken enough pictures + we couldn't stay any longer, so we took the Cable Car down. ⊹ Since we went up first, there weren't many people coming back down. On the Cable Car down, there were only us and my friend, so we continued taking pictures. But because we were so high up, we started to feel dizzy and nauseous after moving around a lot. Altitude sickness started to set in (AMS), so we just stopped and sat there until we reached the bottom. ⊹ When we got down a bit, it was okay, so we went back to get our bags and quickly called DiDi to the bus station to take us to Maoxian City. —- 💰Park entrance fee = 1990 / person, including round-trip Cable Car. ***Ticket prices vary each month. In the picture, we went in October. —- #China travel #Chengdu travel #Travel abroad #Travel abroad by yourself #Travel abroad by yourself #Chengdu review #Tagupingchuan #daguglacier

Explore all 5 national parks Day 0 Fly, take a bus into the city 25 yuan Day 1 Bipenggou - 毕 棚 沟 Day 2 Dagu Glacier - 达古冰川 Day 3 Jiuzhaigou - 九寨沟 Day 4 Huanglong - 黄龙 Day 5 Siguniangshan - 四姑娘山 Day 6 Chengdu - Chengdu City This trip, I flew by myself and bought a local group van for 6 people in China for convenience in traveling. The program already includes accommodation. We use the service of the page >> Chengdu Daughter-in-law Takes You on a Trip ——————————- 💗 Preparation advice - Diamox altitude sickness medicine, take half a pill every 12 hours (start taking it 2 days before coming and continue taking it until coming down from a high place) - Motion sickness medicine because the curves are very steep - Wet tissues + Hong Thai (saving lives from the bathroom) - Buy a portable butt spray because the hotel doesn't provide one - Alipay and Wechat are very important, confirm your identity from Thailand. Paying, calling a didi (taxi) is very convenient - Don't have to exchange a lot of cash because most people use Alipay to pay for everything, but you should have it with you in case the internet or app has a problem - Google translate app because Chinese people don't speak English - Snow shoe straps because if you don't wear them, they'll be slippery 😂 - Recommend spraying waterproof spray on your shoes before coming because there's a lot of walking. If your shoes get wet, it'll be difficult - Chengdu's time is only 1 hour longer than Thailand - Finally, I recommend preparing your body because this route covers all 5 parks and takes a long drive. Plus some parks are really a lot of walking #WantMom #Chengdu #China #BiPenggou #TaGuGracia #JiuzhaoGou #Huanglong #FourGirls #TravelChina #Sichuan
