Qixia Temple Photos: Trip Moments
All at once, summer collapsed into fall~🍁Qixia mountain is one of the popular scenic spots in Nanjing, known for its autumn scenery. The maple leaves are amazing, being the best time to take pictures of the mountains covered in a sea of different shades of red and scarlet leaves. It also includes mountain peaks and has many historical sites. The temples and the sculptures carved on are impressive. The scenic spot isn't too far from the city center, you can take the subway Line 3, get off at NFU station, and from there you can take a bus or didi, about 26 km away. 🍁entrance fee : 40 rmb 🍁snack and souvenir shops : yes You can spend half a day. Enjoy!🍁🙈SweetPsycho20
How could you not visit Qixia Mountain when you come to NanjingAddress: No. 88, Qixia Street, Qixia District, Nanjing Transportation: Take Metro Line 1 to Jubaoshan Station, then transfer to bus 206 to Qixia Station Take Metro Line 2 to Jingtianlu Station, then transfer to bus 138, 326 to Qixia Station Take Metro Line 3 to Xinzhuang Station, then transfer to bus 206, D21 to Qixia Mountain East Station 💰Ticket: 80r, half price for students and the elderly. Tips to note: You can get three free incense sticks at the entrance of Qixia Temple, and it's a 10-minute walk straight ahead to the ancient temple where you can offer the incense. It's best to bring some bread snacks and water. (There are grilled sausages and drinks at the top of the mountain, but they are quite expensive) 【Easy Route】 On the ground: First visit Mingjing Lake, Mingzhengjun Stele, Qixia Temple, Relic Pagoda, and Qianfoya in that order. Then return to the entrance of Qixia Temple, where there are signs indicating the sightseeing car boarding point, and it is recommended to take it all the way to the top of the mountain. From the top of the mountain, follow the order of the First Emperor's Jiang Viewing Spot, Maple Lake, Red Leaf Valley, and Peach Blossom Lake, and it's not tiring to walk down. A mother with a child around 6 years old has walked this route on foot. Must-see Scenery: Mingjing Lake: The number one scene of Qixia Mountain. There is a pavilion in the middle of the lake, a nine-turn bridge connecting to the shore, and the "Rainbow Mirror" stele by the lake. It's very nice to take a walk by the lake, take photos, and enjoy the lake and mountain scenery. The First Emperor's Jiang Viewing Spot: Located halfway up the mountain, it offers a panoramic view of the Yangtze River's beauty as well as the red leaves. You can stroll, enjoy the view, and taste tea here, feeling the charm of ancient architecture. Red Leaf Valley: A red leaf viewing area integrating mountains, stones, water, forests, and pavilions, characterized by strange rocks and red leaves, naturally beautiful, with red lanterns hanging on both sides of the road, full of ancient charm. Peach Blossom Stream: The seclusion place of Li Xiangjun, a famous courtesan of the Qinhuai River. The area is surrounded by plank bridges, ancient maples, pavilions, lakes, peach groves, Die Lang Rock, Tian Kai Rock, and the Imperial Garden, making it easy to take beautiful photos. Qixia Temple: Mainly features red maples, chicken claw maples, and fragrant maples, and also has 4 ginkgo trees. Biyun Pavilion: At the top of Tiger Mountain, it looks like a peninsula, with cliffs on three sides, connected to the mountain path by only one rock, winning by its precariousness. It is one of the best spots to enjoy the panoramic view of Qixia Mountain.arduous_deeanna
Come to Nanjing for the New Year! Recommended by localsI've been to Nanjing many times, but as the Spring Festival approaches, this time I went to Nanjing with a purpose. Upon arriving in Nanjing, I only do these three things: watch the lantern festival, admire the plum blossoms, and worship Buddha. I don't like the hustle and bustle of crowded places, so this time I refuse to be squeezed by crowds🙅🏻♀️ 📌Recommended Nanjing Garden Expo Park The lantern festival at the Garden Expo Park is an immersive experience of the beauty of traditional Chinese style and trend, with eight major themes of lanterns dazzling me. You can even see traditional Chinese performances and NPC parades, the overwhelming beauty of China hits you in the face. 📌Admiring the Plum Blossoms The wax plum blossoms at Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum are crowded with people, but the wax plum blossoms in Zhan Garden are also in bloom. You can compose your photos through the window panes, full of charm. The pink plum blossoms at Meihuagang are like shy young ladies from ancient southern families, making a bashful entrance yet standing tall and graceful. The plum blossoms on Plum Blossom Hill are even more famous, with more than 30,000 plum trees competing in full bloom, a sight too beautiful to describe. 📌🙏🏻 I recommend Qixia Temple, an ancient temple from the Southern Dynasties, a thousand-year-old center of Buddhism. The incense here is thriving, and sincerity brings blessings, making it most suitable to seek a pure land here before the Spring Festival or during the New Year, to shed the fatigue of the year and wish for good luck and smooth sailing in the coming year. Of course, if you feel Qixia Temple is too far, I also personally like the Dabao'en Temple. One of the three great temples of Jinling, it is also worth a visit. Nanjing is a city full of historical and cultural heritage, and visiting during the Spring Festival not only allows you to enjoy the beautiful lanterns and plum blossoms but also to experience the influence of Buddhist culture.WanderlustRoamer
"Red Maple and Ancient Temples: The Autumn Whisper of Qixia Mountain"Walking alone on the forest path of Qixia Mountain in Nanjing, I am attracted by the autumn scenery here and moved by the tranquility here. The autumn wind is refreshing, and the maple leaves are like fire. I walk on the winding mountain road, with the sound of pine waves in my ears and red leaves like brocade in front of my eyes. Qixia Mountain, with its unique autumn charm, is like a gorgeous painter, using red and green colors to outline a moving picture. The Qixia Temple on the mountainside is simple and quiet, standing for hundreds of years, witnessing countless dynastic changes. The sound of Buddha is lingering, the bell is melodious, and I seem to hear time gently staying here. The old monks in the temple, with smiles on their faces, their eyes hide thick stories and deep wisdom. After climbing all the way, I came to the top of the mountain. Looking around, the skyline of Jinling City is looming in the distance, and the sea of leaves under my feet is like a grand autumn celebration. I found a stone to sit down, let my thoughts drift to the distance, and my heart danced with the maple leaves. Each falling maple leaf seems to be telling an ancient story. I imagine the literati and ink guests of ancient times, they may have also picked up the pen and ink on such an afternoon, leaving behind the poems that have been passed down through the ages. As the sun sets, a gentle purple glow appears on the horizon. In this gentle light and shadow, I feel a faint sadness and deep peace. The autumn of Qixia Mountain is not only a beauty to enjoy, but also a baptism of the soul. When I set foot on the way home, looking back at those red leaves still swaying in the wind, I know that this autumn whisper of Qixia Mountain will stay in my memory for a long time and become a warm part of my heart forever. Take care and goodbye, beautiful Qixia Mountain, until we meet again.JetsetGuru
Spring outing and hiking to appreciate the new green—A good place to climb in the suburbs of NanjingLook at this touch of new green, look at this full screen of lush! The cold has faded, and the heat has not yet arrived. Walking in this green, it's like being wrapped in spring, you can breathe the spring air freely. This is the Qixia Mountain known for its red leaves! In autumn, the mountain is full of red leaves, which is a famous place for cherry blossom viewing, but Qixia Mountain at the turn of spring and summer is no less than autumn, full of vitality! There is a large parking lot under Qixia Mountain. After parking, you can hike up the mountain through Qixia Temple. Admission to Qixia Temple requires a ticket, but it is currently off-season and the price is very cheap. Moreover, Qixia Temple, as an ancient temple visited six times by Emperor Qianlong during his seven trips to the south of the Yangtze River, is also simple and quiet inside, and it is beneficial to walk around and calm down. On the mountainside, there is a tea shop with beautiful scenery. When there are few people in business, it is very comfortable to go and listen to the breeze and taste the tea.CADENCE MCKINNEY1

In Nanjing, in the south of the Yangtze River, a cave is also preserved. Qixia Mountain in the northeast of Nanjing City is the place to enjoy red leaves every autumn. It is famous in the whole country. The Qixia Temple under the mountain was built in the seventh year of Nanqi Yongming (489 years) and is one of the famous temples in the country. The Qixia Mountain Branch of the Chinese Buddhist College is located here. For the visitors who enjoy the autumn, Qixia Temple just rushed past and went straight to the mountain to see the red leaves. This temple is still very interesting. There is a cave in the temple called Qianfoyan, which is the only cave in the south of China. According to historical data, the cave statue of Qianfoyan in Qixia Mountain, Nanjing, is 31 years later than the Yungang Grottoes, but it is 17 years earlier than the Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang City.

The most famous temple in Nanjing, Jiangsu, must be the Qixia Temple on the Qixia Mountain. The trees here are green and full of vitality in spring and summer. Once you go in autumn, you will immediately change to colorful clothes, which is very beautiful and spectacular, and it is also the most prosperous season for tourism.
Qixia Mountain is slowly entering the autumn, and the tourists who burn incense and worship Buddha at Qixia Temple are still endless. Now the trees are still very green, and the maple leaves here will turn red in November. There will be more tourists. The environment is very beautiful and beautiful.
Qixia Temple is an ancient temple with a thousand years history. It is located at the foot of Qixia Mountain, No. 88 Qixia Road, Qixia District, Nanjing. Qixia Temple covers a bit large area, and there are some monuments preserved inside.
Every autumn, I want to go to Qixia Temple to see maple leaves 🍁, but every time I dispel this idea because of the super many people. I take decisive action in the off-season. Nanjing in summer is still very hot. I need to do a good job in heat prevention and sun protection measures. I understand the history of Qixia Temple and enjoy the beautiful scenery. I have benefited a lot!
I announced that I am your tap water from now on. I am very satisfied. I hope to keep high quality in the future. I am really super satisfied. According to the recommendation, I saved my time to do my homework slowly, save time and effort, praise and praise (˘͈ᵕ ˘͈❀)
Before entering Qixia Temple, I was greatly disappointed. The narrow road in front of the mountain gate, the excessive noise and the growing tyranny caused by the large-scale demolition made me unable to feel the slightest degree of purity and excellence. I even suspect that it's in the wrong place. It was not until we entered the mountain gate and paced over the liberation pond that the world suddenly changed and the world was separated from the dust. Qixia Temple is located at the West foot of Qixia Mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the Yangtze River in the north. It is one of the four famous temples in China. It is the birthplace of Buddhism "Sanlunzong". It is the Buddhist center of China in the Northern and Southern Dynasties. It is as famous as Jiming Temple and Dingshan Temple in the Southern Dynasty. Qixia Temple was founded in the seventh year of Yongming in Southern Qi Dynasty (489). The doctrine of Liang Senglong was called the first ancestor of the Three Confucians in Southern Jiangsu. Yang Jian, Emperor of Sui Dynasty, built the Shrine Pagoda in 83 prefectures, with Qixia Temple in Jiangzhou as the head. In the Tang Dynasty, it was called Gongde Temple, with a huge scale, and Lingyan Temple in Changqing, Shandong Province, Yuquan Temple in Dangyang, Hubei Province, and Guoqing Temple in Tiantai, Zhejiang Province. It was also called the world's four major jungles.
Late autumn, the early morning Qixia Temple is already crowded, it is estimated that it is to see the famous red maple. Unfortunately, it is a bit disappointing here. First, there are not many maple trees, mainly concentrated on the side of Spiegel Lake and the road up the mountain. Second, the weather is not good this year. The autumn rain in November has been down for nearly a month, making maple conditions greatly reduced. But the two ginkgo trees at the door were amazing, although they had fallen almost, but adults and children were busy with the ginkgo leaves on the ground to take pictures, and had a great time.
Qixia Temple under Qixia Mountain, there is a gift of incense at the door. The scenic spot sells vegetable noodles and Buddhist sutras for free, which is a kind relationship. If you burn incense, you can climb mountains, such scenic spots as Qianfo Cave and Hongye Valley. There are a lot of people. Mountain climbing is tiring for the elderly. Be careful not to be crowded. Some roads are still narrow.
