The Oriental Beauty Goddess's Stunning Check-in Spot

🌟A must-visit millennium-old temple in Shijiazhuang! Gorgeous Song Dynasty architecture, instantly transporting you back to the Great Song! Longxing Temple truly amazed me!! No wonder Mr. Liang Sicheng praised it as the "Number One Famous Temple Outside Beijing." As soon as you enter, you are stunned by the Mani Hall! The double-eaved Xieshan roof is so majestic, and the inverted Guanyin inside the hall is absolutely stunning, praised by Mr. Lu Xun as the "Oriental Beauty Goddess." It truly lives up to its name! The most breathtaking is the Thousand-Hand Guanyin in the Great Compassion Pavilion, standing a full 21.3 meters tall. Standing below, you feel so small. It is said to have 42 arms, each holding a different ritual object. Seeing it in person is truly spectacular. You must visit the Wheel Treasury Pavilion! This is the oldest existing wheel treasury in China, a pinnacle of Song Dynasty wood craftsmanship, exceptionally well preserved. Be sure to see all six "national firsts" in the temple: 1️⃣ The unique architectural structure of the Mani Hall 2️⃣ The most beautiful inverted Guanyin 3️⃣ The tallest Thousand-Hand Guanyin 4️⃣ The oldest wheel treasury 5️⃣ The Longcang Temple stele 6️⃣ The most exquisite bronze-cast Vairocana Buddha 📸 Photo tips: The light at 3 to 4 PM is absolutely beautiful.
