In Guangdong! A spiritual sanctuary where you can stay for three days for free

In Shaoguan, Guangdong, I found the ceiling of the Guangdong Temple ⛩️, which has a history of more than 1,600 years. It has the largest area in the province and has a strong Zen cultural atmosphere. I stayed here for two days and it met all my expectations for the temple.

Such a small and culturally rich place,
Food, accommodation, tickets, and parking are all donated 🆓 at will,
It is really suitable for visiting and praying with family during the holidays.

This time happened to be the tea picking season of Donghua Zen Temple, and I experienced the joy of picking tea in the mountains with my family. In addition, the park also has a special Zen tea experience area and handmade area, where you can taste good tea 🍵 and DIY your own tea bag, which is very interesting ~
