JUNIOR NAVARRO

I advise you to come to this ancient temple in Chengdu, which has a history of a thousand years

Chengdu has such a temple, far from the city center, it is Xindu Baoguang Temple. The temple covers a large area, composed of various halls, there is a stupa known as the 'Eastern Leaning Tower' and the relatively famous Arhat Hall. Everywhere is full of Buddhist culture and garden style. On weekends, you can walk into this temple and take a look! . 🚇【Transportation】: Metro Line 3 Zhonglou Station, 15 minutes by bike 🎫【Ticket】: 5 yuan . 🍃【Temple Layout】 The main road has Shanmen Hall→Stupa→Seven Buddha Hall→Heavenly King Hall→Daxiong Baodian→Scripture Building→Zixia Mountain, on the left there is a Cultural Relics Boutique Hall→Precepts Hall→Puwen Tower→Conference Hall→Baoguang Jing She, on the right there is a tea garden→vegetarian restaurant→Wuguan Hall→Arhat Hall→East Garden, etc. There is a map on the back of the ticket, you can visit according to the map. Most people will be at the Shanmen Hall, Stupa and Seven Buddha Hall, the further you go, the fewer people. Here are a few places I recommend to take a closer look. . ①Shanmen Hall Stepping into the temple, the first thing you see is the Shanmen Hall, most people will be here, and it is quite popular. . ②Stupa The tower body is slightly tilted, there are oil lamps at the bottom of the tower, you can turn around here. . ③Seven Buddha Hall You can't enter the interior of the main hall to take pictures, there is an aunt who guards it, you can take pictures outside the main hall, there are monks teaching here, you will hear the sound of teaching from time to time from the room. The aesthetics of the East is fully displayed here, it can be considered the most classical place in the whole temple. . 🍰【About Eating】 There is a vegetarian restaurant and a tea garden in the temple, and there is a small square outside the temple with many small shops selling food. . 📝【Some tips】 1️⃣The temple does not explicitly prohibit photography, do not speak loudly. 2️⃣The whole temple is full of classical Eastern beauty, the garden style is prominent, you can check in through various door frames and windows.
