#ChengduSlowTravel #宽隔巷子#Good Places to Go in March 2025#春台市锦#成都太古里#锦里古街#成都文青之旅#Old Chengdu and New Trends: #漫步中国风#旅行走走控#四川味生活雅思 If you ask me how to travel in Chengdu, I would say: walk slowly, stroll slowly, and let the city tell you the answer. That day, I started my wandering from Kuanzhai Alley. Old walls, green tiles and red lanterns – this is the perfect opening for Chengdu. The Sichuan opera masks, regular customers in the teahouses and the delicious snacks on the street all express a "Ba Shi De Ban" philosophy of life. As I ate ice jelly and watched the face-changing show, I felt like time was in no hurry to pass. Then we turned into Chuntai Shijin, a newly opened cultural and creative alley not far away. It has the flavor of old Chengdu and the creativity of young people. The cafes and design shops here are hidden just right, a surprise for wanderers. In the afternoon, I arrived at Taikoo Li, a wonderful space where fashion and antiquity coexist. As you stroll along, you'll occasionally look up and see the ancient pagoda of Daci Temple, as if you're walking in a city dream where ancient and modern times intertwine. You can buy brand-name products here, or you can buy nothing. It’s worth it just to enjoy the breeze and sun. Finally, I chose to walk into Jinli Ancient Street in the night. The lights came on, the opera began, and I ordered a string of sugar-coated fruits and ate them as I walked, as if I had become a scene in a movie. This is Chengdu. You don’t have to arrange a tight schedule. It uses a gentle rhythm to make every corner a scenery. --- Locations to check in: Kuanzhai Alley / Chuntai Shijin / Chengdu Taikoo Li / Jinli Ancient Street 📍Address recommendation: In Qingyang District and Jinjiang District of Chengdu, with convenient direct access by subway

#discoverchina Very few things in Chengdu emphasise the stark contrast of modern and traditional China like the squat buildings of Daci Temple surrounded by the towering skyscrapers of the Tai Koo Li development. There's a pleasant teahouse near the southern entrance that makes a nice change from the upscale foreign-cuisine places to eat outside.Though a monastery has stood here since at least the Tang dynasty, the current structures date mostly to the later Qing dynasty. #chengdu

Right in the middle of the trendy Taikoo Li shopping district, surrounded by high-end stores and fancy cafés, sits Daci Temple (古大圣慈寺)—a peaceful 🕊️escape from the city buzz. Walking in, I immediately felt calm, with the smell of incense and the soft sounds of monks chanting. It’s hard to believe this quiet temple has been here for over 1,600 years!🕍 The mix of ancient red walls and modern skyscrapers is an incredible contrast. I wandered through the courtyards, admiring the beautiful architecture and soaking in the peaceful vibes. Whether you’re here to make a wish🙏, take a break from 👗, or explore a different side of Chengdu, Daci Temple is worth a visit!#discoverchina #temple #chengdu #travel#china

✅ Chengdu's Daci Temple, this thousand-year-old temple hidden beside Taikoo Li, has quite a history! Originally built during the Sui Dynasty, it boasts a history of over 1,400 years and was once the place where Monk Xuanzang received his precepts! ✨ During the Tang Dynasty, Daci Temple was known as the "First Buddhist Temple of the East," renowned for its grand scale and flourishing incense. It is said that at that time, the temple housed 96 courtyards, over 8,000 halls, pavilions, and chambers, and thousands of monks, making it a center of Buddhist culture. Unfortunately, after enduring wars and repeated destruction and reconstruction, its current scale is not as grand as it once was, but it still retains its solemnity and Zen spirit. ✨ The most famous feature within the temple is the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree. Every autumn, golden leaves blanket the courtyard, as if whispering stories of the past millennium. In spring, Daci Temple presents a different scene, where tender green buds contrast beautifully with the ancient architecture, accompanied by the faint sound of Buddhist chants and the subtle fragrance of flowers, instantly making one forget the hustle and bustle of the world. ✨ The magic of Daci Temple also lies in its ability to maintain tranquility despite being situated next to the bustling Taikoo Li. With the modern city on one side and the ancient temple on the other, this contrast evokes a sense of wonder: history and modernity can coexist so harmoniously. If you come to Chengdu, be sure to visit Daci Temple and experience this Zen and earthly atmosphere that transcends millennia.

Having visited Zhangye Dafo Temple, I found Daci Temple in Chengdu to represent a different style of Buddhism. Everything inside Daci Temple, from the architecture to the Buddha statues, exudes grandeur and newness. There was a Buddhist ceremony taking place during my visit. Those wishing to worship needed to purchase incense first, and there was also an offering of applying gold leaf to the Buddha statues. Overall, it felt too commercial, so I left after a brief stroll. It's not far from Taikoo Li, within walking distance.

#Overseas travel #China #Daza Temple While traveling in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, you will definitely come across this old building while going to a huge downtown shopping center. The faint scent of incense, which blends in with the forest of buildings, will automatically draw your steps. The weather in Chengdu in early winter is perfect for traveling, but the yellow ginkgo trees create a harmony between the beauty of the temple and the seemingly bleak downtown buildings. It is a warm place where we can purify our hearts and reflect on the meaning of traveling while seeing many people burning incense and praying with their own wishes.

Daci Temple is a historic Buddhist temple located in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China. It was founded between the 3rd and 4th centuries and flourished during the Wei and Jin dynasties. The temple reached its peak during the Tang and Song dynasties, and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang bestowed its name in his own handwriting. It was renowned as the largest temple in the Shu region at that time. The temple is famous for its traditional wooden architecture and exquisite murals, earning it the praise of being 'exquisite.' Additionally, it was here that the monk Xuanzang studied Buddhism and prepared for his journey to the Western Regions, making it a central hub for Buddhist exchange in East Asia. It is indeed a product of Chengdu's rich history.
