Tucked away from the city buzz, 五塔寺 surprised me with its serenity and stunning stone carvings. This small but historic temple is famous for its five pagodas rising from a single platform — each beautifully detailed and symbolic.
🌳 The temple grounds are peaceful, with minimal crowds — a perfect place for a quiet walk and reflection amidst ancient architecture.
📍Located in Hohhot’s old city area. Combine this with a visit to nearby temples or local food stalls.
📝 Tips:
	•	Entry is cheap and worth it for culture lovers.
	•	A nice break if you’re already temple-hopping around Hohhot.
	•	Great photo ops — the five towers are truly unique in China!
