🔥 Honestly, Chanyuan Temple is really beautiful! The architecture resembles the patterns of Dunhuang, and the entire temple truly looks like the Forbidden City.

🌿 There's also a century-old white magnolia tree here, just like the one at Faxi Temple, and the key is that there are very few people!! It's a pity I came late, the white magnolias are almost withered now.

🤷 Friends who want to see the flowers shouldn't get their hopes up, but the architecture inside is really worth a visit. Although I don't know why the temple has this architectural style, it's truly magnificent and resplendent💗💗💗. Taking photos on a sunny day is super beautiful!!!!

😀 The temple is also very pet-friendly. There's a Golden Retriever or Labrador inside (I can't tell the difference), very spiritual, but it wagged its tail and hit me, it hurt.
