Taizhou | The Beauty of Guoqing Temple

The Sui plum has not yet bloomed The red plum buds The wintersweet is in full bloom The camellia is at the end of its bloom In fact, Guoqing Temple is beautiful just for taking pictures of the trees 🌲 The Ji Gong in the Hall of Five Hundred Arhats is the reincarnation of the Dragon Subduing Arhat The first "gratitude" is greater than the second, and the gratitude we repay is less than what we are given Half of the "goose" is the authentic work of Wang Xizhi In short, there are too many things to see in Guoqing Temple. The Tiantai Sect has declined in China, but after it was introduced to Japan, it flourished there, reminding me of the Enryaku-ji Temple on Mount Hiei (on the border of Shiga Prefecture and Kyoto Prefecture, east of Lake Biwa) that I once visited. Accommodation: Tiantai Hotel is the closest to Guoqing Temple Dining: Tiantai Hotel Chinese Restaurant (local cuisine, very delicious) or "Sanmu and Food" halfway up the mountain (Western-style light meals, beautiful and delicious) Coffee: Seed Coffee (the cultural and creative products are also beautiful) All of the above are relatively close to Guoqing Temple, and of course, there are more delicious food and drinks in the county. Transportation: Get off at the "Tiantai Mountain" high-speed rail station, take bus No. 7 to the visitor center, and there is a free shuttle bus from the visitor center to the Tiantai Mountain Scenic Area, then you can walk or take a 2-yuan scenic shuttle bus. Of course, you can also take a taxi directly from the high-speed rail station. Admission: Guoqing Temple is free, and it is a 5A-level scenic spot. Photography tips: 1. Look from multiple angles, and you will find many beautiful things. It is recommended to bring both a humanistic lens and a telephoto lens. I use a Fuji XT3 with a 70-300mm f4-5.6 lens and a 35mm lens. 2. It is recommended to use a retro tone when shooting Guoqing Temple, after all, it is an ancient temple from the Sui Dynasty, and high-saturation colors are not pleasing to the eye.
