Check in at Tanzhe Temple's Cypress and Persimmon Tree of Good Fortune

Next to the Pilu Pavilion Hall at Tanzhe Temple, an ancient cypress tree and a persimmon tree grow side by side, creating a unique scene that symbolizes the auspicious meaning of "everything goes as you wish," carrying the beautiful hopes of generations. Tanzhe Temple was built over 1,700 years ago and has a long history. Legend has it that the Forbidden City was modeled after it, with the saying, "First there was Tanzhe Temple, then there was Beijing." Surrounded by mountains, towering ancient trees, and exquisite old architecture, the scenery here is delightful. Visitors can not only experience profound historical and cultural heritage but also find tranquility and good luck. About 300 meters south outside the temple are two pagoda forests, upper and lower, consisting of the relic stupas of Master Yuanji from the temple. The gray and white towers stand quietly among secluded woods, making for a peaceful stroll and great photo opportunities. Come to Tanzhe Temple and start a journey filled with both good fortune and beautiful scenery!
