Exploring the Hidden Gem of Wuhan - Longhua Temple

💄Belle says: Longhua Temple, just outside my mother's house, has been my playground since I was little. As a child, I never realized its beauty, but now, it has transformed in my eyes into something completely different. The phrase 'a great hermit hides in the city, ancient temples nestle in deep mountains' couldn't be more apt. Especially when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the pink petals against the temple gate and the yellow courtyard walls create a unique charm and Zen atmosphere. 📍Address: No. 81 Wuluo Road, Wuchang District, Wuhan City, located at the foot of Snake Mountain, opposite the Yue Ma Chang campus of Zhongnan University of Economics and Law. 🎫Ticket: Free ⏰Opening Hours: 7:00-16:30 🚙Transportation: Drive to Longhua Temple; or take the subway line 7 to Xiaodongmen Station, then cycle for about 1 kilometer. 💯Travel Tips: ✅The temple is not big, and it only takes a few minutes to walk around. Free incense is available at the entrance for visitors to pay their respects and pray for blessings. ✅The two cherry trees in front of the temple are absolutely stunning when they bloom, complementing the yellow walls and red tiles of the temple, giving it an ancient and traditional feel. Around the corner of the wall, you can see another cherry tree that blends with the window, adding to the rich Chinese aesthetic. ✅Walking behind the temple, you can see Snake Mountain. You can climb to the top of the mountain to look around and feel the warmth of the spring sun. Everything here is so peaceful and comfortable, it's as if time has stopped at this moment.
