Just around Chengdu, there is a thousand-year-old temple that is seriously underestimated
Built on the hillside, with red walls and green tiles under ancient trees, and a kitten sitting comfortably on the eaves...
The quiet ancient temple that locals also like to visit is beautiful and quiet📷
Take a walk in the mountains when you have nothing to do and all your worries will disappear! !

Suining, the hometown of Guanyin, is home to Guangde Temple in the Xilaidi Zen Temple. The incense is very strong. It was once the "royal temple" for the careers of dignitaries and nobles...
The temple has a history of nearly 1,400 years and has been conferred titles 11 times by successive emperors. As soon as you enter the door, you can see the four-character imperial edict stele inscribed with "帝仕禅林" written by Yan Zhenqing, which is very shocking! !
Tips: This time I had the experience of making lacquer fans for free in the temple. It was very interesting. Making fans by yourself is beautiful and photogenic.
