You can go in and ask about your marriage~~20 yuan per time, after shaking the stick, there is a master to help you explain. The lady on TV shook it lightly and one came out, but when I shook it, a bunch of sticks fell out 😂
There are many devout believers in Yue Lao Temple, and they can interpret the fortune. Haha, I got a big fortune, and the fortune teller said I might get married quickly. Outside is a family and a twinning tree. It turns out that the twinning tree is two trees growing together.
Naturally, it is a place where men and women seek marriage or show their love.
It costs 20 yuan to burn incense at Yue Lao Temple, and 20 yuan to buy a blessing plaque. Although I don’t know if Yue Lao is here, I still bought a plaque to pray for marriage.
The wishing boards on the trees and walls are fresh and spectacular. After thinking about it, I don’t really want to pray for marriage.
Is anyone going to Wuzhen tomorrow? I'm looking for a companion!
As everyone mentioned, the red signs hanging thickly at the entrance were all written by people with relationships. For a single person like me who hasn't found their true love yet, I really don't know who to write to. But I still drew a fortune stick. The older sister explained it, and I looked it up online and it was the meaning. Yue Lao Temple is really popular, with most people my age, born after 1994, attending.
It should be difficult to find. We happened to go there by chance. There were many couples.
This place for finding love is not suitable for me.
There are many small prayer plaques, everyone can write one and hang it up
There are many wishing boards hanging in the scenic spots inside Xizha. Those who believe can go and worship.

Humph~ I'm a single guy, why should I go? Because my brother wants to pray for a good life with his wife. I'm just eating dog food all the way...
Although the sister who predicts marriages explains it according to the routine on paper, you can believe it or not, and it is not too much to experience it. The key is that the scenery inside is still good and quite unique.
There are many signs hanging in the temple, all left by couples. In fact, many tourist attractions are like this now. It’s just that the name makes people more eager to make a wish and leave some memories in the temple. However, I still didn’t hang any, because I think love does not need to be shown to so many people.
The walls are covered with wishes made by lovers for lifelong love, and there are also ancient trees growing together and entangled with each other. It is a very romantic place.
What a pity, I'm a single dog.
There are many wishing signs outside, densely hanging on the wall.
There are even trees all over the place, which looks quite nice at sunset.
It can be seen that many people come here to seek marriage, and the trees are basically full of hangings.
It is said to be very effective. My friend went in to worship and found it in the West Gate.
I went through the high walls and courtyard and groped my way to the Yue Lao Temple in the dark, but it was under renovation and I couldn't get in. Who wouldn't want to go in with the others if they were with someone?
I got a card there and wrote a wish on it. I wonder if it will be like that.
I spent 20 yuan to calculate my marriage, hehehehehe
I see many people choose to hang their plaques at Yue Lao Temple, but I don't. With so many plaques, how busy would Yue Lao be? I'll take the plaque with me as a souvenir. If I ever meet the person who's waiting for me, I'll give it to them. If not, it's fine to keep it.
Yue Lao Temple, located on the north bank of Feicui Yang in Xizha, is a place where local young people come to make wishes and seek love. The fence in front of the temple is covered with prayer tablets, but they are all in exchange for money.
I have a sincere heart and hope to be single soon.
I went to make a wish. It didn't come true at all. The matchmaker cut off the red string between me and him and tied it to another girl.
There were so many wishing boards, on the trees and walls at the entrance, and inside the temple itself—so many it was unbelievable. I wrote one and hung it where I thought I'd find it. I also shook a fortune stick, and there was a red string tied to each stick. The woman who interpreted the fortune sticks wasn't very insightful, but it was okay. 20 yuan for four sentences is quite expensive. It would have been better to go during the day, but it turned out that it was difficult to take photos at night. I also don't think this place is easy to find. I recommend going during the day.
The trees in front of Yue Lao Temple are hung with red prayer boards.
The door is red, and there are many wishing cards hanging on it. I wonder if they will work if I pray. . .
There is a fortune teller here~ Haha~ Shake the lots and explain the price of 20 yuan for each lot~ There are also many signs hanging in the temple, all left by couples. In fact, many attractions are like this now~ It’s just that the name makes people more eager to make a wish and leave some memories in the temple~ However, I still didn’t hang any, because I think love does not need to be shown to so many people.
Whether you are single or have already said goodbye to being single, please draw a lot for good luck.
Maybe we didn't feel anything because we weren't a couple. But there were many couples there, asking for divination or something. It should be beautiful to take pictures during the day.
Go and ask for marriage, it's perfect for taking photos, go ahead
I've been there, and the fortune I asked for was totally inaccurate. Well, it's still okay for fun. The aunt who interpreted the fortune said that I found my future husband through free love, which is totally inaccurate. The tourist attractions are nice.
If you want to pray for marriage, you can go to Yue Lao Temple. Many people make wishes there.
Come and seek your own marriage, maybe it is in Xitang
It is said to be very effective. I bought a pair of red strings and wore them on my hands. It is said to mean a thread of fate connecting us. I also drew a fortune with my boyfriend. Alas, the fortune said that we are destined to be husband and wife.
Two years ago, I visited Wuzhen and, while taking photos amidst a sea of rapeseed flowers, I spotted the Yue Lao Temple. My husband, then my boyfriend, and I went to pay our respects there. We bought love locks, but I forgot if we made a wish. Now our baby is eight months old, and we're all doing well. My husband and I are discussing whether we should return to fulfill our vow, or perhaps wait until the baby is a little older and make another trip. I wonder if it's the Yue Lao Temple's influence, but when it comes to temples, faith is key!
Inside Wuzhen lies the Yue Lao Temple. It's unassuming from the outside, lacking grand grounds or deep halls. Just a small earthen building, its presence might be overlooked. But as the saying goes, "where immortals are present, their power is known." Its long history and legendary remedies have earned it a great reputation in the local area. Perhaps, like love, the ordinary is what lasts.
It is indeed unique, with signs hanging all over the place. The most annoying thing is that a short red ribbon costs five dollars. Hahahaha
The red wishing signs are very unique, wishing lovers to finally get married.
Because I do what I think in my heart, I hope that the matchmaker will bless me to find my other half as soon as possible.
Just looking for psychological comfort, I don't know if it is useful...
The eccentric Eighth Princess in Heaven is a source of frustration for everyone, so the Jade Emperor sends her to the Yue Lao Temple to experience the hardships of the human world. There, she witnesses the love, hate, and vengeance of past lovers, past enemies, and current lovers. The extraordinary romances of history unfold before her very eyes. After witnessing all the joys and sorrows, she suddenly realizes that the one who can truly live peacefully by her side may actually be the best partner...
My husband and I were still in love at the time. Seeing a sign pointing to Yue Lao Temple, we desperately wanted to find it, burn some incense, and draw a fortune. Young people always find that romantic. After a long search, we passed a dragon-shaped field and a restaurant whose name I can't recall, and finally found it under a large tree. It was quite secluded. There didn't seem to be any incense, but I did spend 20 yuan to draw a fortune stick. It was the Kun hexagram, and it was beautifully written, predicting a happy marriage. I still have that fortune stick, and it's safekeeping. Of course, we eventually got married, and this place has become a small memory.
If we hadn't watched the video about the Mu Xin Art Museum (the part where Chen Danqing rode the scenic area's battery car past the Yue Lao Temple and Long Xingtian and entered the museum from behind), we might not have been able to stroll to the Yue Lao Temple. This small temple is quite hidden and not far from Wangjinli. Tourists staying at Wuzhen Travel Agency can take the scenic area's battery car to Wangjinli and then walk to the Yue Lao Temple.
Yue Lao Temple is located near Longxingtian in Xizha Scenic Area. You can also ask for fortunes and interpret their meanings.
Many young people choose to go to this place to seek marriage.
Overall: I think it's pretty average. There are 3 trees, all of which are hung with red ribbons.
Views: It's a pretty small temple. It was raining when I went, so the road was very muddy. The road wasn't in great condition. I didn't particularly enjoy the wetness, and the interior was quite small. It was pretty average.
It's very beautiful. People's hopes and wishes are written on prayer boards, on red ribbons, tied to the uncle outside the door, floating and fluttering. When I find a partner again, I must go there again and hang up my own sign~\(^o^)/~

It's a bit far from the main street of Wuzhen Xizha, and the place is not big.
It was not far from the entrance of the resort. There were not many people there. When we went there, we saw a little girl seeking marriage.
I went to worship Yue Lao very devoutly! There is a verbena field not far from Yue Lao Temple, which is very beautiful!
The appearance is ordinary, but there are many tourists, and the publicity level is amazing
Yue Lao Temple is located in the Wuzhen tourist area, on the side of the road where the tour buses pass. It's a rather unassuming building, but despite its modest facade, it's incredibly famous. The tree in front of it is covered in red ribbons. You can buy a ribbon, write your wishes on it, and hang it up. It's said to be incredibly effective. I'm going to give it a try, just in case it works. Roar!
An inconspicuous little temple with many red ropes hanging on the trees outside.
I didn't go in, I just took a look at it while eating at the door, but I didn't seem to be very interested.
You can visit the temple where there is a wishing tree at the entrance where you can make a wish.
The local scenery is unique and it is recommended to take a walk.
Located in the Xizha Scenic Area, close to the newly built Internet Conference venue, I went there last year to pray for marriage, but I don't know if it will come true.
Singles can go and have a look. It's a very small attraction.
When I came to the Yue Lao Temple, I wanted to pray to Yue Lao to give me a good marriage, haha!
Yue Lao Temple is located inside Xizha, about 15 minutes from the pagoda. I went there with a friend, and everyone honestly drew a fortune stick. Haha, I got a lucky one, which was super exciting. It's a wonderful memory. We went there in the summer, and it was already noon. We had lunch and found a hotel, right next to Xizha. We didn't book online, but asked for the price directly and bargained a bit. The hotel's style was exactly what I liked, a European style. Because the sun was too strong, we watched a horror movie in the hotel and took a nap. When we woke up, it was around 3 p.m., and then we started our Xizha journey. It was huge, and we took lots of photos. It was a very enjoyable trip.
Yue Lao Temple is a good place, but forget what’s inside otherwise it will be too much!
Xishan scenic spots are places where young people go. Now that we are older and have partners, we can just take a look when we pass by.
Yue Lao Temple
Actually, I hadn't thought about going there originally, but my friend kept thinking about it.
The Yue Lao Temple is located in an inconspicuous building. Although it doesn’t have a big facade, it is very famous.
You can ask for a fortune or buy a red ribbon and write your heart.
The big tree in front of the door is tied with red ribbons, which say "hold your hand and grow old together". The blessings on these red ribbons are flowers that will never wither.

Yue Lao Temple is on the edge of Xizha Scenic Area. If you like, you can go and have a look. There is nothing special about it.
Before I even entered the scenic area, I heard there was a Yue Lao Temple inside. I was going to ask Yue Lao to give me two peach blossoms, but sadly, it was closed. It immediately made me feel hopeless and cried.
Yue Lao Temple is a place to pray for love. You can worship Yue Lao with your loved one, or draw a lot alone. Perhaps this lot will lead to your match. Believe it or it will work.
Located on the roadside in the middle of the tour bus channel, it is just a small earthen temple building. If you don't pay attention, you may even ignore its existence.
If you look for it in Wuzhen according to the map, it will take a long time to walk.
Well, I went there hoping to find love, but nothing special happened. Could it be because it was already dark when I went there?
In the Yue Lao Temple where people pray for marriage, many young couples carve words to express their love. There are also couple houses with twelve zodiac signs on the water. The prices are also very good, 3,000 to 5,000 per day. Isn’t it true love?
