Shanghai Nights🌃

#mytraveldiary Jing’an Temple in Shanghai is a stunning Buddhist temple known for its golden rooftops and serene ambiance, nestled among the city’s modern skyscrapers. Originally built over 800 years ago, it offers a peaceful contrast to the urban energy around it. Inside, visitors can admire intricate carvings and a grand jade Buddha. For the best photo, visit at night and walk to the nearby pedestrian bridge just steps from Jing’an Station. From there, you'll get a breathtaking view of the illuminated temple glowing against the city lights—a perfect shot capturing old and new Shanghai in one frame. If you would like to explore more about the temple, do pay for the entrance fee to enter the temple during daylight time!!
