Strolling through the cultural landscape of Guo En Temple 🌧️ November Mainland Travel

📍Address: Within the Hometown Tourist Resort in Group 6, Provincial Road 276, Xinxing County, Yunfu City, Guangdong Province 🕰️Opening Hours: 08:00-11:30, 14:00-17:30 (Open all year round!) 💰Tickets: Free admission, super Buddha! Guo En Temple really feels like traveling through time and time - it was built in the first year of Tang Hong Dao, and has been around for hundreds of years. It is also said to be the former residence and place of death of the Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng! It is as famous as Guangxiao Temple in Guangzhou and Nanhua Temple in Shaoguan. It is one of the three ancestral temples of Chinese Zen Buddhism. Even Japanese monks call it "the ancestral temple of ancestral temples"! ✨ The temple is built against the mountain, but still retains the style of the ancient temple of the Tang Dynasty. With the Lingnan-style architectural design, every scene is very stylish. Walking through the mountain gate on a cloudy and rainy day, you can see a red prayer belt hanging on the big tree. The red-walled ancient pagoda matches the atmosphere. It's definitely a place to take pictures! 📸 The environment is super quiet, incense is strong, the mind is immediately healed ~ for thousands of years people have been coming to worship and pray for blessings, whether you are worshiping Buddha or walking the humanistic route fits the feel! If you prefer to admire history and architecture in silence, you can’t miss it! ⛩️🌧️
