Changsha Baogai Temple | There are beautiful scenery along the way. After being in a cage for a long time, I can return to nature.

The journey to Baogai Temple is picturesque, just like a bird returning from a cage to the embrace of nature. Passing through villages, fields, and rivers, we finally came across a Buddhist temple in the mountains surrounded by rich autumn colors, amid the sound of gurgling water in a stream beside the road. Going deep into the valley, you will see Baogai Temple, a thousand-year-old temple that is simple and natural, inheriting the ancient charm of the Han and Tang Dynasties. The mountains are stacked and surrounded by forests, the scenery is picturesque. If you have any troubles, why not come to this mountain and seek answers from the Buddha?
