Who would have thought that in Mianyang, Sichuan🤩, there is such an amazing place hidden😜!
I was traveling around 🚶♂️ and saw the travel experts of all kinds of famous temples 🤔, but when I walked in here, I was still deeply shocked 😱!
There are countless huge statues here😲, there are so many that the eyes can't see them😵.
📍Mianyang Holy Water Temple, Rohan Temple
🚗 Transportation: You can drive 🚗 or take the train to Mianyang, Sichuan 🚆, and then change to the bus 🚌 (friends in Chengdu or nearby cities that day round trip is no problem 😏).
Follow my visit route 🗺️:
1️⃣ First arrive at [Holy Water Temple], after going up the steps, come to the Auspicious Gate 🚪, this is the location of the first picture 😃, the super large huge statue corridor 🛤️, every Buddha statue is lifelike😮, the aesthetic is simply super high 👍. Feeling surrounded by huge Buddha statues all around, that scene, it's too spectacular😲!
2️⃣ Then walk up to visit the Guanyin Hall and the Daxiong Treasure Hall, you can pray for blessings 🙏, pray for peace and success😇.
3️⃣ Then go to [Rohan Temple], you can reach it directly from the middle of the mountain from the Holy Water Temple😃. There are countless Rohan statues here😲, golden, white, colorful, thousands of them😱!
4️⃣ There is a circular lake🌊, surrounded by four or five layers of Rohan statues, especially spectacular😲. There is also a pavilion with open skylight 🏯, you can see the huge golden Buddha statue inside the pavilion 😃, it is really amazing 😲!
5️⃣ Going forward, there is also a huge white lying Buddha😲, sleeping there peacefully😌.
6️⃣ There are rows of colorful Rohans on the adjacent highway🤩, from here we start going downhill😃.
🕐 Walk down the whole way, walk and look, it takes about half a day 😃.
📷 Photography friends 🎥, you can take extremely visually impactful photos here📸, definitely satisfy you😏!
📝 Friends who will stay in Mianyang for a few more days 🤗, I recommend a few items 😃:
1️⃣ Go and see the night view of Yue Wang Tower 🌃, feel the charm of the ancient city 😉.
2️⃣ to Sanjiang Peninsula to feed seagulls🦤 and enjoy the fun of being close to nature😃.
3️⃣ Eat delicious food🍔 at Majia Lane and taste various local specialty snacks😋.
4️⃣ Go to the 500-year-old Bao En Temple in Pingwu, Mianyang🧐 to feel the precipitation of history😌.
I will also post a strategy for Mianyang later, remember to follow me 😘!
How about it, are you already eager to go and feel this magical "Ten Thousand Buddhas Heaven"😜? Then act now 🚀!
