[Yungang Grottoes x Huayan Temple] Datong Citywalk|A must-visit millennium-old temple

The best way to enjoy Citywalk! Huayan Temple is so beautiful it leaves you speechless 😭
Highly recommend all sisters visiting Datong to check in here!

🏯 Huayan Temple
📍 Address: Gulou West Street, Urban Area, Datong City, Shanxi Province
⏰ Opening Hours: 8:00 AM - 5:30 PM
🎫 Ticket: 50 RMB/person (half price with student ID)

I was shocked as soon as I entered! ✨
The temple’s halls and pavilions have an ancient charm
The exquisite wooden Buddha statues are breathtaking
Especially the giant wooden Buddha statue in the central Mahavira Hall
Every carved detail is stunningly beautiful 👑
It is said that the Buddha here is especially effective 💫
You can come to pray for love or academic success~

Surrounded by traditional auspicious patterns and fresh flowers 🌸
When sunlight streams through the carved wooden windows
It feels like a fairyland!
Every snap is a masterpiece 📸

💡 Tips:
1. Recommended to visit in the morning or evening for fewer people and better light
2. Wear comfortable shoes as there are many steps to climb
3. You can arrange to visit Yungang Grottoes on the same day
4. Nearby shops sell blessing bracelets

Huayan Temple is truly the most surprising attraction in Datong for me!
The incense atmosphere and architectural aesthetics perfectly present traditional Chinese beauty ✨
If you want to experience the feeling of ancient enlightened masters acting out their skills, you must come!
