Chengdu is just 1 hour away, and this royal ancient temple that has stood for a thousand years is worth visiting for worship

💫 Sisters, have you ever heard of Guangde Temple? This ancient temple is known as the first Zen forest from the west and is also the birthplace of Guanyin in China! 🙏 It has a history of nearly 1400 years, which is truly heart-stirring! 💖 🏞️ Stepping into Guangde Temple, you will be deeply shocked by the magnificent and towering Guanyin Dharma assembly. There's also the legendary 'Seal of the Land' treasure seal, which is both mysterious and sacred. 🕉️ Nestled on Wolong Mountain, this ancient temple is definitely worth spending half a day to savor and experience the tranquility and solemnity. ✨ 📝 Here comes the travel and check-in strategy! First, the incense offering place is right at the entrance, where you can easily spot it and where the temple's incense and candles are supplied. 🕯️ Guangde Temple is a royal Zen forest and has been honored with imperial seals 11 times by emperors throughout history! 👑 The unique 'Imperial Edict Stele Pavilion' within a temple in the country is right here, and the four characters 'Imperial Gift Zen Forest' were personally written by Yan Zhenqing! 🖋️ 🙏 If you have many wishes, consider visiting the Mahavira Hall and Guanyin Hall to welcome. In Guangde Cultural and Creative Store, you can also welcome items like the Eighteen Seeds, fragrance pouches, bamboo segments, and other auspicious items, which are great choices whether for personal use or as gifts for family members. 🎁 🎉 Don't forget to visit the Guangde Cultural and Creative Store, the only Suining cultural and creative store at present! 🎈 There are loads of Suining souvenirs and memorabilia waiting for you to choose from, and you can also experience Hanfu photography. The scenery of Guangde Temple is super photogenic! 📸 🔍 Inside Guangde Temple, there are six treasures waiting for you to discover! The Guanyin jewelry seal, Ming imperial jade seal, Shanji Pagoda, Imperial Edict Pavilion, Burmese jade Buddha, and Nine Dragons Stele are all hidden in various parts of the temple, like a treasure hunt that is exciting! 🏰 💡 A thoughtful tip: In Guangde Temple, you can also get free Guanyin mobile phone stickers, wealth tokens, handwritten blessing slips, enjoy the fun of copying scriptures, and even receive prayer cards from the Guanyin Temple Fair! That's really awesome! 🎉 📣 Finally, a reminder to everyone when visiting and taking photos, be sure to respect the temple's rules, do not disturb the resting monks, and do not take pictures of the monks' collective practice! 🙏 🚗 For transportation, after getting off the high-speed train at Suining Station, you can directly take a taxi or drive to the entrance of Guangde Temple, or take the No. 5 bus to Wolong Mountain Park Station, and then it's just a few minutes' walk to reach! 🚌 Come to Guangde Temple to feel the tranquility and solemnity! 🌸 You will definitely be deeply attracted by the ancient charm and mystery here! ✨
