Guang'an Special Forces One-Day Tour Route Map, read this article

Guang'an, a small Sichuan city tucked away in a corner, has a long history. In the second year of the Kaibao era of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Guang'an military was established with the meaning of 'expanding the land and ensuring peace', and since then the name 'Guang'an' has been passed down to this day. It is also the hometown of Comrade Xiaoping, the chief architect of reform and opening up and modernization construction, boasting four calling cards: 'Hometown of the Great Man, Riverside City, Gateway to Eastern Sichuan, Red Tourism Destination', especially as a key red tourism route. College Students Special Forces One-Day Tour Route: Chengdu - Guang'an - Lehuo City - Xingguo Temple - White Pagoda Park - Siyuan Square - Chengdu 'Main Attractions to Visit' Lehuo City: Originally Guang'an Red Culture Film and Television Tourism City, it is a new type of park that integrates comprehensive amusement, specialty dining, film and television tourism, research and development, outdoor experience, and other forms of tourism. After an upgrade, it was opened to the public for free on January 19, 2020. Inside the city, there are attractions such as the Huanglong Gorge Waterfall and Wanchun Bridge (which has a history of 1300 years and was repaired again in the 8th year of the Tongzhi era of the Qing Dynasty), as well as a go-kart racing track and many other facilities, making it a top check-in spot for locals in Guang'an. Ticket: Free to visit; however, there is a separate charge for attractions within the city Business hours 08:00-22:00 Xingguo Temple: Located in the urban area of Guang'an, it was built during the Sui Dynasty and rebuilt during the Ming Dynasty. It is the only Buddhist activity site in the urban area. The main hall is a single-eave Xieshan style, wooden structure, with glazed ridges, coiled dragon pattern tiles, and phoenix dazzle gutter drops. The temple is very small in scale, besides the main hall there is also a 'Flying Ancient Buddha' pavilion. In addition to the main Buddha, there are also 'densely packed' Buddhist and Taoist gods on other small altars, as well as Buddhist images such as layman's embroidery displayed on the offering table, which really leaves one at a loss for words. At the same time, laypeople in the main hall will ask you about incense and repeatedly remind you of the 'joy of merit', otherwise they will not strike the bowl, which is thought-provoking. Guang'an White Pagoda: Also known as 'Relic Treasure Pagoda', it is located on the Deaf Man's Beach of the Nanqu River in the old city, built between the Chunxi and Jiading years of the Southern Song Dynasty, constructed by An Bing, the Grand Scholar and Minor Mentor of the Song Dynasty. The Guang'an White Pagoda is square, with a brick and stone structure, and has nine levels (not capped). The first to fifth levels are stone structures, and the sixth to ninth levels are brick structures. Guang'an White Pagoda, 'a pagoda without a temple', has not always been a solitary pagoda throughout history. According to local historical documents, there was a White Pagoda Temple built below it. Siyuan Square: 'When drinking water, think of its source', is a symbolic project for the centenary of Comrade Deng Xiaoping. The square's highest point features the world's largest bronze tripod, dominating the Qu River, looking towards Kui Pavilion, echoing the White Pagoda, with lofty intentions. Nearby there is also 'Deng Xiaoping Library'. Transportation Strategy: Take the intercity express train from Chengdu 🚄 directly to Guang'an South Station, take the No. 8 bus, go directly to Lehuo City first, then take the No. 8 bus to Guangning Market, and then ride a shared electric scooter 🛵 Travel Tips: When going out, bring your own student ID and other documents, and do not let your luggage out of your sight When visiting temples, do not easily trust anyone, including the staff inside, it's best to speak less at this time The city's delicacies are guaranteed to be found in the local food market, follow the locals for food and drink, and you won't go wrong Guang'an city has few shade trees, so be prepared for sun protection and hydration, and drink water in time
