On the third day of the Lunar New Year, go to Lam Tsuen, Hong Kong to pray for the new year🍊❤️

Tradition says that the third day of the lunar month is red mouth, which means that the third day of the lunar month is easy to get into arguments and quarrels with others, so they will not arrange the third day of the lunar new year, so they will choose to go to the temple to pray for blessings. Today my other half and I chose to come to Lam Chuen early in the morning to make a wish, the weather is really good, although the New Territories area is really cold, and windy, but better than the sunshine, basically cloudless, personally in a beautiful mood ❤️ Speaking of Lin Chuen, I believe everyone is familiar, the allusion is not here in detail, but it is worth mentioning that due to the epidemic, Lin Chuen Wishing Festival has been suspended for two years, in 2009 discontinued the overwhelmed real trees for many years, introduced plastic materials made of 15 feet imitation tree, and to Although today is a good day to go to the temple, the flow of people is not very large, maybe even the market, the area is not large, unlike the Che Kong Temple side, need to implement one-way crowd control. It's rare to come so far (we live in Kowloon East), of course we have to buy a wishing luck for good luck. This year, a piece of auspicious price is $50. Put your own money into the money box, like adding incense oil money. There is no change or electronic payment, so remember to bring your own cash. A Yoshi is attached to a pink ribbon to tie the red prayer card for you. The card is printed on both sides, one side is basically including all the four-character blessing words, such as money at hand, wishes come true, academic progress, good health, world peace, etc., convenient for everyone to check their wishes. Then the back is for you to write your own prayer words, and there are fields for you to fill in your name and date, so as not to be confused. After my girlfriend wrote it, we went to try our luck. I went to try the first shot, the result was of course not successful😂 because purely to try the feel. Then I gave it to my girlfriend to try (seeing she seems very confident 😂). result! Of course it was successful 🥹 happy! Girlfriend said the trick is, after tying the card, do not need to roll up, on the contrary, grab the card, with the big hand throwing the object line upward angle (like watching TV holders pitching), upward slightly with some force so a throw, quickly done 😝 girlfriend a throw successful, we ourselves were stunned😂 can't believe! Then we went to buy 3 bottles of Lincun nectar (forgot to take pictures) for our family as souvenirs, then bought a happy windmill to pray for good luck in the new year! Remember that after buying the windmill, turn three times in front of the incense burner and simply ask the gods for blessing before taking it home! After walking for about an hour and a half, we took the bus back to Tai Po Market Railway Station. Speaking of transportation, it's actually really convenient. The point-to-point shuttle service is definitely a plus, the new carriage is large and clean, and the upper deck bus has a special two-way four-seater booth. The #KMB bus company staff were very good and would instruct us to line up in an orderly manner. They also reminded us to sit in the upper seats as much as possible. The whole journey is within 15 minutes. The shifts are also quite frequent, about 7-10 minutes a trip, so the queues are not long, and there is also room to sit, so it is a pleasure. Near the bus stop, there are also instructions to remind passengers living in other areas where they can transfer if they want to get out and back in Hong Kong or Kowloon, as always very carefully arranged. Finally, we chose to get off at Tai Po Super City on our return trip, walk about five minutes to Tai Po Centre, change the bus back to Kowloon Bay and have tea with our family, the time is just right 🥰 Overall, the Forest Village Wishing Tree is a must-visit place for the New Year. I wish everyone a happy new year, good things and good health! 🍊❤️ #LamChun #Tai Po #Tai Po #Lam Chuen Wishing Tree #Tai Po Forest Village Day Trip #Treasure Disc #tripcom
