[2025 Jinhua Attraction] Travel Guide for Zhizhe Temple (Updated Apr)

After visiting the Double Dragon Cave in Jinhua, there is a nice Buddhist Temple nearby. You can ride Y3 or Y5 bus from the bus station near the ticket office in the cave. Get down when you see the grand entrance where you can see long and tall posts. There is no fee when you get inside and the place is just quiet and many people are visiting the place to pray to their God. The place is quite huge because it is composed of a lot of big temples. Near the temple there is also a tall pagoda but we were not able to go and see the pagoda because we were running out of time and its time for is to go back home. It was actually very easy for us to get a Didi ride from Jinhua back to Yiwu.#urbanexplorer #newyearstravel #
