[2025 Hangzhou Attraction] Travel Guide for Nanping Evening Bell (Updated Aug)

On a rainy afternoon, I came to Jingci Temple by the West Lake, but unexpectedly encountered the most poetic Hangzhou. Compared with the hustle and bustle of Leifeng Pagoda, there are few tourists here. Only the rain hits the eaves, the bells ring through the forest, and the deep sound of the evening bell of Nanping spreads in the wet air, instantly washing away the impetuousness. The ancient temple in the rain curtain has a unique style. Climb the steps along the central axis to the Sakyamuni Hall, lean on the railing and look into the distance. Leifeng Pagoda is looming in the rain and fog, the West Lake turns into a misty ink painting, Su Causeway and distant mountains are hazy into the painting, as if you are in the Song Dynasty poetry scroll. In the corner of the temple, vines grow wildly, and wild azaleas are wrapped in water droplets and bloom wantonly. The "disordered beauty" that no one trims collides with the flying eaves and brackets, just like the whispers of Buddhism and nature. Electronic candles replace the smoke of incense burners, making the hall more quiet; watching the rain under the eaves and watching sparrows jump over puddles, I suddenly realized the Zen of "life should be simple". What is hidden here is not only the story of Jigong, but also the soul of the misty Jiangnan.

I. Trip Overview This tour plan will use two days to deeply experience the Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake and feel their unique charm. II. Itinerary Day One • Morning: Su Causeway in Spring - Lotus in the Breeze at Crooked Courtyard - Moon Reflected in Three Pools ◦ Arrive at Su Causeway, stroll along it, and enjoy the beautiful scenery of willow trees lining both sides and clear waters in the morning light of spring. Experience the poetic feeling of "Six bridges crossing the Milky Way, connecting North Mountain to South Screen." ◦ Head to Lotus in the Breeze at Crooked Courtyard. In summer, this area is filled with lotus leaves and flowers reflecting in the sunlight. Even outside of the flowering season, you can appreciate the garden's serene elegance. ◦ Move on to Moon Reflected in Three Pools, where a platform is built by the lake. Standing on the platform, you can overlook the vast surface of West Lake and feel the peaceful and open atmosphere. • Afternoon: Broken Bridge with Remaining Snow - Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor - Orioles Singing in the Willows ◦ Visit Broken Bridge with Remaining Snow. After winter snowfall, the bridge is covered in silver white. Even if it's not winter, you can lean on the railings and gaze into the distance, imagining the beauty of the remaining snow. ◦ Enter Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor to watch red fish swimming playfully in the pond, surrounded by pavilions, towers, artificial hills, and pools that complement each other beautifully. ◦ Stroll through Orioles Singing in the Willows, admire the swaying willow branches, and if you're lucky, hear the melodious oriole songs, experiencing the delicacy and vitality of southern Chinese gardens. Day Two • Morning: Three Pools Mirroring the Moon - Twin Peaks Piercing the Clouds ◦ Take a boat to Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, an island in West Lake with scenic spots like "Net Opening Pavilion" and "Leisure Platform." The three stone pagodas in the lake are especially unique, and at certain times you can see the wonder of "one moon in the sky, three reflections in the lake." ◦ Then head to Twin Peaks Piercing the Clouds, where you can view the southern and northern high peaks from a distance. When surrounded by mist and clouds, the twin peaks appear to pierce the clouds, creating an ethereal atmosphere. • Afternoon: Leifeng Pagoda in Sunset - Evening Bell at Nanping Hill ◦ Visit Leifeng Pagoda, climb to the top, overlook the panorama of West Lake, and enjoy the magnificent view of the pagoda bathed in golden light as the sun sets. ◦ Finally, go to Evening Bell at Nanping Hill and listen to the melodious bell sounds at Jingci Temple, experiencing the tranquility and timelessness of the ancient temple.

I. Introduction to West Lake Located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, West Lake is one of China's most famous scenic tourist destinations and a world cultural heritage site. It is known for its picturesque scenery, profound cultural heritage, and rich historical sites. Whether you are strolling along the lake or taking a boat trip, you can feel the unique charm of West Lake. II. Recommended Attractions (I) The Top Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake Spring Dawn on Su Causeway: Su Causeway was built by Su Shi, a poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, when he was the governor of Hangzhou, using the silt dredged from West Lake. In spring, the weeping willows on Su Causeway are graceful, the peach blossoms are bright, and the green grass is like a carpet. Six bridges span the lake, each with its own characteristics. Strolling along Su Causeway is like being in a beautiful landscape painting. Lingering Snow on Broken Bridge: One of the top ten scenic spots of West Lake, it is also the most romantic attraction. According to legend, Xu Xian and the White Snake met here and fell in love with the help of an umbrella. After the winter snow, the sunny side of the bridge melts, while the shady side is still covered with snow. From a distance, the bridge seems to be broken but not broken, hence the name. Evening Bell Ringing at Nanping Hill: Refers to the evening bell of Jingci Temple on Nanping Hill. The bell is melodious and pleasant. Every time the sun sets, the bell rings, spreading throughout West Lake, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility. Leifeng Pagoda: Famous for the legend of the White Snake. At dusk, the setting sun shines on Leifeng Pagoda, and the tower is dyed golden, which complements the surrounding lake and mountains, forming a beautiful picture. Three Pools Mirroring the Moon: One of the top ten scenic spots of West Lake, known as the "No. 1 scenic spot of West Lake." On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, candles are lit in the pagoda, and thin paper is placed over the openings. The light shines through, like many moons reflected on the lake, echoing the bright moon in the sky, which is magnificent. III. Featured Food around West Lake Longjing Shrimp: Made with Longjing tea and shrimp as the main ingredients. The shrimp is fresh and tender, and the tea is fragrant. Dongpo Pork: Made with pork belly as the main ingredient. It is fatty but not greasy, and melts in your mouth. West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy: Made with grass carp as the main ingredient. The fish is fresh and tender, with a moderate sweet and sour taste. Dingsheng Cake Features: Soft and glutinous, sweet but not greasy, it is a traditional Hangzhou snack.

🏔About the Attraction: Jingci Temple is one of the ten scenic spots of the West Lake in Hangzhou and is as famous as Lingyin Temple. Located on Nanping Mountain, the temple houses a bell whose resonant sound can be heard across half of Hangzhou, soothing the restless hearts of the people. Originally built by King Qian Mu of Wuyue for Master Yongming, the temple underwent repeated destruction and renovation throughout the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, ultimately succumbing to war. Rebuilt in modern times, it remains a tranquil sanctuary by the West Lake, renowned for its efficacious prayers, especially during the "Evening Bell at Nanping" event, which doesn't attract excessive crowds even on holidays. 📝Visiting Guide: Bell Tower: Home to the Great Brahma Bell, donated by foreign Buddhists. Ringing the bell costs 10 yuan and is said to bring good luck and peace throughout the year. Grand Hall: Featuring a double-eaved hip-and-gable roof and yellow glazed tiles, the hall exudes a solemn and dignified aura. The plaque above the hall, inscribed with the four characters signifying equality, is a calligraphy work by Master Hongyi. Jizu Courtyard: This small courtyard on the west side houses a statue of Jigong (Figure 7). At the entrance is Jigong Living Buddha's ancient well, used for transporting timber. Legend has it that 99 logs were used to renovate the temple, with one remaining at the bottom of the well. Jigong became a monk at Lingyin Temple, resided at Jingci Temple, and passed away at Hupao Temple. Jingci Temple Art Museum: The Huirui Peak Stele, dating back to the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, is housed here, along with numerous stone Buddha statues. Sakyamuni Hall: The outer platform offers the best vantage point for photographing Leifeng Pagoda. Su Chun Zhai Vegetarian Restaurant: Only set meals are available on holidays.

In March, step into Jingci Temple by West Lake and encounter a romantic bloom. Inside the temple, large swathes of pink camellias are in full bloom, with layers of petals surrounding tender yellow stamens. As the wind blows, petals flutter down, adding a touch of poetry to the ancient temple. Leaving the temple and heading towards Huagang Park (Flower Harbor), the willows by the lake sprout tender green buds, and their slender branches dance gently in the breeze, creating ripples on the lake's surface. Ducklings swim happily in the lake, sometimes diving into the water, sometimes surfacing, full of life. Along the way, red camellias are brilliantly eye-catching, white tulips stand gracefully, and red tulips bloom passionately. Under the warm spring sun, the flowers complement the scenery of West Lake, creating a stunning spring scene that is truly captivating.

Stroll around |Broken Bridge^, walk Su Causeway, appreciate |Three Pools Printing the Moon^, Climb Leifeng Tower|Leifeng Tower Scenic Area^, Walk into|Jingci Temple^, Tap the Nanping Evening Bell... [Awesome][Awesome][Awesome] Highlights Recommended Jingci Temple[Grin][Grin][Grin] Leifeng Pagoda is indeed crowded, and it is not easy to take pictures. If you want to take a panoramic view of the pagoda, it is also recommended to go in reverse from Jingci Temple. Warm reminder ❤️: Many people take the elevator to climb the tower, it is recommended to climb the stairs to climb the tower, and the big golden top can only be seen up the stairs. The temperature on the tower is very low, it is recommended to wear more clothing. There is a mural of the Legend of the White Snake in the tower, which is lifelike and can be explained to children. It is quite vivid. You can meet it at the exit of Leifeng Pagoda. The reason is that there are not many people checking in this temple, but there is a treasure image of Jigong Living Buddha, and there is also a beautiful Buddhist hall and Nanping evening bell in the temple, which can be struck during the New Year to bring good luck. For dinner, you can go to Suzai Pavilion | Su Chun Zai ^ next to Jing Ci Temple Lunar New Year order set, four people 279 yuan, each dish is very exquisite, parents and children love to eat 😊😊😊. The next day, check out the Zhejiang Art Museum and feel the collision of near-modern art: Zhang Daqian’s ink and water paintings, and foreign artists Sandro Sanna, Donato Picollo’s visual traps, shuttle between science and art. Towards the end, I met a sketch artist, Mr. Mo, who helped us who were visiting the exhibition to draw a sketch. We were so honored that the artistic atmosphere was full For eating, it is recommended to go to Southern Song Dynasty Imperial Street or Hefang Street. They are antique, you can eat and play, and you can go shopping and eat at the same time. Later I went to Jiujiali to eat, ordered one fish and two to eat (West Lake vinegar fish + steamed), Dongpo meat, are Hang Gang specialty dishes, taste really good 👍

Location: 🚦 Quanzhou, Fujian 🟥 Route: Guandi Temple ~ Qingjing Mosque ~ Confucian Temple ~ Zhongshan Road ~ Bell Tower ~ Xiaoxicheng ~ West Street ~ Kaiyuan Temple 🟦 Food: Mianxianhu ~ Ginger Duck ~ Milk Tea ❤️ On the way to Guandi Temple, I was directed by a kind lady from Sha County to a delicious Mianxianhu restaurant. Guandi Temple is very popular, and you can get three free incense sticks. 🧡 The entrance fee for Qingjing Mosque is CNY 3. It is the oldest Islamic temple. Although I don't know much about history, I can still appreciate its beauty. 💛 The Confucian Temple is under renovation. There are not many people, and it is very quiet. The two lush trees in front of Dacheng Hall are very beautiful, and there are two different stone elephant sculptures on both sides of the bridge. 💚 The buildings on Zhongshan Road are very beautiful. Although it is a commercial street, it still has a historical charm and is bustling with people and cars. 💙 The Bell Tower is very photogenic, and the landmark building is very distinctive. Xiaoxicheng is in the alleys of West Street, where you can take a walk and find some small surprises. 💜 West Street is very lively. There are several shops where you can go to the rooftop to take photos of the entire West Street, which is very beautiful. 🖤 I ran into a tour group at Kaiyuan Temple. I learned a lot by listening to the tour guide's introduction. You can also get free incense sticks. 📝 I came here a few years ago because of the saying "half the city is fireworks, half the city is fairyland" and made a wish in front of Guandi Temple. This time, I felt more like meeting an old friend and made up for the ginger duck I missed last time. The white car was very convenient. I met three sisters at the youth hostel and had a great chat. I recommended Putian Hanjiang to the sister from Beijing and went to the ancient city with the sister from Hangzhou. Meeting warm people added better memories to this trip.

I thought Suzhou was already extremely beautiful, until I set foot in West Lake during spring.||"Memories of the south of the Yangtze River, the most memorable is Hangzhou". This spring, I once again rushed to the south of the Yangtze River, once again falling for West Lake 💓. On a sunny day, walking by West Lake, look at the willow trees sprouting bright green new buds 🌱, the spring breeze blowing, ripples forming on the pond, even the most melancholic mood will gradually unfold. Take a boat ride 🚣 on West Lake, explore the West Inner Lake, admire the cherry blossoms at Turtle Pool 🌸, the swimming fish at Flower Harbor, Guo's Villa, etc., and experience the revered joy of Emperor Qianlong's visit to the south of the Yangtze River. And the beauty of West Lake is not only in the bright sunshine of the daytime, but also in the tranquility under the moonlight of a spring night. The West Lake under the moonlight, with the gentle lake breeze brushing the cheeks, accompanied by the fragrance of flowers 💐, is like an elegant ink painting, intoxicating and delightful 👍. · ✅ Recommended attractions: Quyuan Fenghe, Guo's Villa, Maojiabu, Turtle Pool, Santai Yunshui, Flower Harbor Viewing Fish, Bathing Hu Bay, Prince Bay, and the nearby Jingci Temple, each place is not to be missed. · ✅ Food recommendations: Hangzhou's Longjing tea 🍵 and West Lake vinegar fish 🐟, these two delicacies contain the essence of Hangzhou's taste. · 🏡 Recommended homestays around West Lake: After a tiring day of sightseeing 😫, you can brew a pot of Longjing tea in the homestay, leisurely spending this pleasant mountain springtime. 🌙 At night, with a light fragrance, fall asleep peacefully in a room where you can see the night view of the mountains and forests. · Every luxury Flower Mansion is a unique high-quality boutique, Flower Mansion creates unforgettable travel memories with you~

⛩ Before the end of March, all tourist attractions in Hangzhou are free🆓, so I followed the trend to climb a mountain and visit a temple. On the way to Faxi Temple, I just passed by Jingci Temple, so I decided to check in at this popular photo spot. 📷 After entering through the main gate, head towards the main hall. Enter the main hall and exit from the back door, then follow the stairs upwards. When you reach the high point inside the hall, looking out from the inside is the popular photo angle. Viewing the Leifeng Pagoda through the carved wooden door has its unique charm, without the wide-angle compression of the image, it seems a bit less impressive. ✏️ Tourist spot: Jingci Temple 📍 Address: No. 56 Nanshan Road

Jingci Temple, located on Nanshan Road, opposite the Leifeng Tower, is one of the four ancient temples in the history of West Lake, and one of the famous temples in China. Because the bell in the temple is loud, the 'Nanping Evening Bell' has become one of the 'Ten Scenes of West Lake', and a grand ceremony is underway.

Scenic Spot Name: Jingci Temple Address: No. 56 Nanshan Road Transportation: Take bus route 4 to Jingci Temple Opening Hours: 6:30-17:00 Ticket: Temple admission is free Recommended Duration of Visit: 1-2 hours Reason for Recommendation: Jingci Zen Temple, the location of the 'Evening Bell at Nanping' among the Top Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake, was once the residence of the monk Ji Gong. Opposite is the Leifeng Pagoda, and nearby are the Su Causeway and the zoo. During the Spring Festival, the roads in the morning are already jam-packed. Jingci Temple, less of its usual tranquility, is more crowded with the New Year's hustle. Visitors come and go, coming to Jingci Temple to pray for blessings and to place their hopes for the New Year. At the entrance, take three sticks of free incense, light them in front of the Mahavira Hall to make a wish. Ascend the steps to take in the panoramic view of West Lake's scenery. Descend the steps to visit the Guanyin Hall and Ji Gong Hall, places of legend that are said to be very efficacious and where pilgrims gather. The sound of the Nanping evening bell rings out continuously, plum blossoms within the temple bloom vibrantly, full of life. Red lanterns are hung, and the character for 'fortune' is posted up; the Jingci Temple in the New Year is filled with joy and blessings, attracting a warm and lively atmosphere. The evening bell at Nanping echoes, Jingci Temple is filled with joy.

Jingci Temple, located on the south bank of West Lake in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, opposite Leifeng Tower, is one of the four ancient temples in the history of West Lake and one of the famous temples in China. Because the bell in the temple is loud, the 'Evening Bell at Nanping' has become one of the 'Ten Scenes of West Lake'. The temple is located under Huirifeng of Nanping Mountain in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. It was built in 954 AD by Qian Hongchu of Wuyue State for the Zen master Yongming, originally named Yongming Zen Temple; it was renamed Jingci Temple during the Southern Song Dynasty and built the Hall of Five Hundred Arhats. Jingci Temple, repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt, the temple, mountain gate, bell tower, rear hall, ancient well of Yunmu and Jigong Hall, were all rebuilt in the 1980s. The main hall is a single-layered double-eave structure with yellow glazed tile ridges, which is more solemn and grand. Especially a newly cast bronze bell weighing more than 100 kilograms, cast with the 'Lotus Sutra' written by Zhao Puchu and others, totaling 68,000 words. Every dusk, the melodious bell rings in the vast twilight of West Lake, arousing people's infinite thoughts.

Gradually, I heard the news of the plum blossoms blooming in Hangzhou, I went to the Flower Harbor and Jingci Temple over the weekend. In Jiangzhuang, there are single plum trees, which look very lush to the naked eye, but they are surrounded by a complex background, which is not very easy to photograph. Jingci Temple has opened a patch of red plum blossoms along the west mountain road, and there are also beautifully shaped plum blossom bonsai placed next to the Yunmu Ancient Well . Oh, Jingci Temple is the Jingci Temple of the Nanping Evening Bell

For young people who choose to burn incense in addition to work and school, I recommend Hangzhou Jingci Temple, which is less crowded, convenient, and famous! Nowadays, the social pressure is high, burning incense and worshiping Buddha is not only for the middle-aged and elderly, young people are also very enthusiastic. Coming to Hangzhou, the first choice of Lingyin Temple has been crowded. If you are sincere in burning incense and worshiping Buddha, I recommend a temple to you. It is one of the four ancient temples in the history of West Lake and one of the famous temples in China. This is where Jigong once transported wood from the ancient well, and also where the evening bell of Nanping rang... Yes, this is Hangzhou Jingci Temple! Although it is a deep temple, it is a unique landscape in the south of the Yangtze River. The exterior is an inconspicuous temple, but it is a different world inside. Because it is opposite the Leifeng Tower, you can take pictures of the Leifeng Tower from many angles, and the distant Leifeng Tower has become its borrowed scenery. When you enter Jingci Temple, you will hear the bell of 'Nanping Evening Bell'. My son and I went to ring the bell together. Ringing the bell, eliminating troubles, and increasing wisdom. There are seven halls inside Jingci Temple, of course, the most impressive one is Jigong Hall. The renovated Jigong Courtyard has become a separate household in the south of the Yangtze River, with a pool garden in front, surrounded by walls, and the well of 'Ancient Well Transporting Wood' inside. The current temple is fundraising for expansion and renovation, and my son and I each donated a brick for a total of 60 yuan. My son received many blessings in the temple, and also accumulated blessings for the whole family. After worshiping Buddha and turning the corner, I met a high monk, holding a censer in his hand, wearing a hat on his head, and a yellow cassock floating... I saluted the master Climbing to the fourth hall, there is a newly opened 'Jingci Calligraphy and Painting Institute', where some Buddhist art works are exhibited. You can also feed pigeons in a corner of the temple🐦 In Jingci Temple, listening to the bell, smelling the incense, sitting under the shade of the trees.
