The most famous temple in Dege County is Gengqing Temple, a name many people are unfamiliar. But its "other name" Dege Printing Academy you must have heard of. In fact, this Dege Printing Academy is a magnificent "publisher" on the west side of Gengqing Temple. It is a affiliation with Gengqing Temple. From the Dege Yinjingyuan, turn left, go uphill, go through the large row of turner wheels, and walk for 3 or 5 minutes. Because the reputation of Dege Yinjingyuan is too big, so many tourists only know that the Yinjingyuan does not know Gengqing Temple.

    Degedege County is located in the northwest of Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, adjacent to Ganzi County in the east, Baiyu County in the south, Jiangda County in Tibet across the Jinsha River in the west, and Shiqu County in the north, located in the upper reaches of the Jinsha River and Yaqi River. It is the last county seat of Sichuan-Tibet 317 National Road. Dege Printing Academy is known as the "Encyclopedia of Tibetan Culture", "the cultural pearl of the Tibetan area" and "the treasure trove under the snowy mountains". It belongs to the jurisdiction of Dege Gengqing Temple, which is the information center for the input and export of Tibetan culture. The endless stream of believers in the printing house will attract the endless pilgrims every day, and they will turn around the printing house clockwise. After the turn, they will sit in the open space in front of the courtyard to bask in the sun and chat about home! The printing time of the Dege Institute is only half a year, from March 15 to September 20, the Tibetan calendar. During this period, people can visit the hospital to visit the pilgrimage, known as "Barchadong". Dege became the birthplace of Kangba standard Tibetan language, and it has nothing to do with the rich cultural accumulation of the Institute of Printing. Behind the Gengqing Temple Printing Institute is the Gengqing Temple, the main temple of the Tibetan Buddhist Sakya in Kang District. Every morning there will be a grand chanting ceremony! Location No. 17 Wenhua Street, Gengqing Town, Dege County. Accommodation guides live in Dege County. The traffic guides can be reached on foot, or you can take a taxi in the county.

    Gengqing Temple is the most historical and cultural temple in western Sichuan. It has a history of 290 years, but it is still using the most primitive wood printing, following the thousands of Tibetan hand-printed scriptures, and is currently the only "printing factory" in the world that still hand-printed scriptures. There are few tourists from other places, all of them are worshipped and visited by local Tibetan monks.

    It’s really good to have faith. What can you say, feel right, you can sense it. This temple is on the left hand side of the Yinjingyuan, there is a river on the right, and there is a simple toilet. There is a big turn wheel on the extension slope, and you can walk up to the left hand side for3-5 minutes (slow step). Do not take the middle stairs, mortals please walk on both sides, respect others' faith.

    From Queer Mountain all the way to Dege, the sky is dimming, and finally there is a feeling of being lost in the canyon, until the moment of seeing the county lights, the hanging heart finally fell. At first glance, Dege was really a little forced, and the county was built between narrow mountains, more crowded than any county passing by. · This time, due to time relations, Dege is the farthest place on the northern Sichuan-Tibet line by myself. As the gateway to the northwest of Sichuan, Dege will officially enter Tibet tens of kilometers west from Dege. Dege means "good land", and its name comes from the "four ten good" in Tibetan Buddhism. It is not only the birthplace of Kamba culture, but also the hometown of King Gesar, where epic legends are widely circulated. Believe in the mysterious Dege, has always been in the hearts of many people on the list of life must go, I am no exception, especially the new road sea and the printing school, I have opened a separate article. But in fact, self-driving Dege, there are some interesting little points along the way, you can check in on the way, this article is especially for everyone to take stock. ·1⃣️ Gengqing Temple left Dege Printing Academy and then went to the mountain to Gengqing Temple. It is accurate to say that the Printing Academy was actually part of Gengqing Temple before, but now it has been released alone. Gengqing Temple was built in the 13th year of Ming orthodoxy (1448), and was built by the 36th generation of the Dege family Bota Tashi rooting and the Tibetan Xiangbayu monk Tang Dongjiebo. It is the main temple of the Tibetan Buddhist Sakya in Kang District and the family temple of Dege Tusi. The temple stipulates that the toastmaster must be the master of the temple, and the second son will succeed the toast, so there is no living Buddha in the temple. When we went, there were almost no tourists, only some devout believers worshiping here. Today, Gengqing Temple is still expanding, standing here to the northwest, Dege County has a panoramic view, especially those leveled red houses, very spectacular, a little dazzling feeling. ·2⃣️ Bona Big Buddha Bona Big Buddha is about 10 kilometers away from Dege County, occupying a mountain pass, one side is the depth of the canyon of Queer Mountain, and the other side is the wide valley leading to the county. The opposite bank of the colored Qu River is the Bona Buddha Tower, which looks very similar to the Bodaha Buddha Tower in Nepal. It is said to be the largest Nepalese Buddha in the country. The Buddha's eyes are very mysterious. In addition to the pagoda, there are various Buddha statues carved on the steep cliffs on both sides. I don’t know if it was an old statue, but now it looks more like a new one. The largest one is the Sakyamuni statue on the side of the road. I don't know why a red block was repaired to block it. After Keshan slept Buddha passed the Bona Buddha Tower, he continued to drive more than 10 kilometers in the direction of Queershan Tunnel, and came to Kelodong Township. There is an observation deck where you can watch the "Keshan Sleep Buddha". Of course, the so-called sleeping Buddha always needs a little imagination, and a few continuous mountains are regarded as "sleeping Buddha" in ten directions. If you think in that direction seriously, it is indeed a bit like. There is a temple under the sleeping Buddha called Kodo Temple, which is a county-level cultural and environmental protection unit. The temple was built in 1255 and belongs to the Tibetan Buddhist Sakya sect. There are few tourists here, only the retreating lamas. From the perspective, the temple itself and most Tibetan Buddhist temples are not much different, but with the "Sleeping Buddha" blessing, surrounded by mountains, the vertical and horizontal distribution of white towers and the high and low temples have become interesting. #Summer you will play the most #Go to the place you want to go #Private secret in the city #Small group free punch card recommendation #Small group discovery society

    It is recommended that three or five friends travel to Gengqing Temple together, and it is a little scary to go alone. Especially ladies are best not to go alone.
