Sea and Sky Buddha Kingdom, Luojia Temple!

A temple on the sea, viewing the sea from the temple. It's not Penglai, but better than Penglai! Luojia Temple, the Bodhimanda of Avalokitesvara, is located on Gongyu Island on the eastern coast of the Minnan Golden Coast in Shishi City. It was completed in 2001 and covers an area of more than 20 acres. It is backed by Baogai Mountain to the northwest and faces the Taiwan Strait to the southeast. Quanzhou's coastline is long, and there are many seaside temples, but Luojia Temple is the only temple standing on an island. The unique one-island-one-building structure of Luojia Temple attracts many tourists and pilgrims. During high tide, Luojia Temple looks like it is floating on the sea, hence it is called the 'Sea and Sky Buddha Kingdom.' Within Luojia Temple, there are the Hall of Heavenly Kings, the Grand Hall of Universal Salvation, the Chanting Hall, the Sutra Library, the Bell and Drum Tower, and the Five Observations Hall. The entire temple is majestic and magnificent, with carved beams and painted rafters, resplendent and magnificent. With the sea and sky as its backdrop, Luojia Temple enjoys unique advantages. In your leisure time, why not temporarily leave the hustle and bustle and come to Luojia Temple to watch the tides rise and fall, feel the sea breeze, listen to the Buddhist chants, and steal a half-day of leisure in this fleeting life!
