Dafo Temple in Guangzhou

#chinaattractions If you're traveling to Guangzhou, Dafo Temple (The Great Buddha Temple) should be on your itinerary! Located in the heart of Beijing Road Pedestrian Street, this temple can be visited both during the day and night, and I highly recommend experiencing both. Daytime, locals come to pray, and all temple buildings are open.
Nighttime, the temple is beautifully illuminated, creating a breathtaking sight, though some buildings may be closed.

The temple grounds are quite large, with multiple buildings. Inside, you'll find a wood-carved statue of Guan Yin and a spacious courtyard. Walk further in, and you'll discover the main hall housing three enormous golden Buddha statues. Visitors can also purchase a red ribbon (10 RMB) to write their names and wishes for blessings.

Dafo Temple is a must-see landmark in Guangzhou and a significant cultural site. After your visit, you can easily continue exploring Beijing Road Pedestrian Street, which is just steps away.
