I took a trip to Ningbo, Zhejiang, and it was quite impressive

Temple in the sky
Buddha in the clouds watching over all beings
A 2h45 drive from Hangzhou
A cheap and great place for a light vacation
A beautiful place for ancient style photos
🕹Ningbo, Zhejiang, Xiyu Temple
💫On the top of the clouds in the deep mountains, there is a secluded temple with no villages, no pilgrims, no tourists, only a monk, year after year, guarding this mountain, this temple, this person, this life.
To go to Xiyu Temple, you need to drive through a large section of abandoned buildings and bumpy mountain roads.
🦋There are no residents in the mountains, and there are no vehicles coming and going. The Buddha statue with a smile at the corner of his mouth flashes past the window. For a moment, I think of the opening scene of Spirited Away. It's really fresh to have such a travel experience in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
🦋In the backyard of the temple, there is a forest of stone pagodas, facing the cliff. Under the sunset and sea of clouds, only the sound of the wind blowing through the forest and the birds returning to their nests can be heard.
It feels like all obsessions can be let go at this moment...
The Buddha in the clouds watches over all beings,
The world, in all its forms, is nothing more than the rise and fall of the sun and moon, and the cycle of day and night.
🌸The meaning of travel
Is nothing more than carrying the lightest luggage, and the most abundant self, in search of a moment of peace in the world...

🔆The temple is not big, the front hall is under construction, the playability is not high, but the stone pagodas in the backyard are really beautiful, it is recommended to play along with the surrounding ancient towns
🔆The mountain is high and the road is broken! Be prepared
You have to drive a long section of broken mountain road, small cars are OK, but you need some driving skills, it is recommended for photography lovers and people who can appreciate quietly!
