    "Today I finally came to the Zhaozhou Bridge mentioned in the primary school textbook. I thought that although it was free, it was relatively remote and there was nothing to see except the bridge. There were not many people. As a result, there were many people in Wuyang Wuyang. There are many special snacks on both sides of the road, such as Sydney juice, donkey meat dumplings, honey cakes and so on. In fact, only the bridge in this scenic spot is a point of view, and the rest are all artificially built. Strictly speaking, 70% of the bridge is also new. As a foreign tourist, the price is actually very low, but the locals are more convenient. Zhaozhou Bridge has a history of more than 1400 years and is worth seeing."

    "In addition to a Zhaozhou Bridge in Zhaoxian County, Hebei, the Berlin Zen Temple is also a big attraction. This temple was built in the Han Dynasty, and the Xuanzhao Master asked about Buddhism here. The layout of the Berlin Zen Temple is right, there is a cloister of ancient cypresses in it, and a Sheli Tower is quite famous."

    Highlights: It is a famous Buddhist temple in China, an important town of northern Buddhism, and the seat of Zhaozhou Ancestral Court. It houses Hebei Buddhist Academy and Hebei Zen Research Institute. The current abbot is Zen Master Minghai, and there are more than 160 resident monks. It is located in the southeast corner of Zhaoxian County, Hebei Province (called Zhaozhou in ancient times), facing the first bridge in the world - Zhaozhou Bridge. The main hall of the whole temple, Puguang Hall, covers an area of 435 square meters. Inside the hall is a 3-meter-high, 10-ton, seated statue of Sakyamuni and other statues of gods and Buddhas carved out of marble. Puguang Temple is connected to the mountain gate by a stone road about 7 meters wide and 100 meters long. There are six pairs of imitation Tang stone lamp buildings on both sides of the road, with nearly 10,000 square meters of lawn, more than 300 newly planted cypress trees and more than a dozen trees. The thousand-year-old ancient cypresses that have experienced the vicissitudes of life complement each other. As soon as you enter the mountain gate, you step into the pure Buddha land, which is in sharp contrast with the mundane world outside the mountain gate.
