600-year-old temple in Chengdu

Sisters! I found a hidden gem near Chengdu. There is a 600-year-old temple directly accessible by subway. Two golden Buddha statues are staggered in height. An airplane flies overhead. You can take a movie of Zen and magic in minutes. Here is a complete check-in guide 🌟Recommendation reason 1⃣️ Free direct access by subway: It is a 15-minute walk from Exit D of Huayuan Station on Chengdu Line 10. Free parking for self-driving cars, so you can go on weekends at any time. 2⃣️ Ancient and modern magical frame: The 9.9-meter-high golden statue of Amitabha Buddha on the top of the mountain overlooks all living beings. Planes fly low every 15 minutes, and you can capture the shocking picture of the Buddha statue and the plane in the same frame. 3⃣️ Few people and beautiful scenery are more beautiful than in movies: yellow walls and gray tiles, green trees and light and shadow, red ropes for blessing, you can easily take Zen forest-style blockbusters. 4⃣️ Prayers are super effective: for wealth, marriage, and academic success! The God of Wealth Temple and Guanyin Temple are highly recommended by locals and are very popular. 📍Must-check-in seats ✅ Baiyun Avenue Highway: Stand at the end of the road and shoot upwards. The straight road extends to the Buddha statue on the top of the mountain, and the sense of interweaving ancient and modern times is full! On a sunny day, the golden Buddha statue is even more stunning✅ At the foot of the Buddha statue on the top of the mountain: take a bird's-eye view of the temple, overlooking the Chengdu Plain, and capture dynamic blockbusters when the plane passes through the sky✅ The square in front of the Guanyin Temple: Two Buddha statues are staggered in the same frame, with light and shadow mottled yellow walls, the atmosphere is directly maximized✅ Ancient Tree Red Rope Area: Two ancient trees at the entrance are hung with red ropes for blessing, the portrait mode blurs the background, and the sense of story is overflowing ‼ ️Tips for playing: 1⃣️ Transportation: Metro Line 10 Huayuan Station Exit D, ride a shared electric bike for 5 minutes/walk for 15 minutes; self-driving navigation "Baiyun Temple", free parking 2⃣️ Prayer Guide: There are 48 yuan/68 yuan packages (including incense and candles) for incense, in the following order: Main Hall → Guanyin Hall → Jade Buddha Hall → Randeng Hall → God of Wealth Hall → Thousand Buddha Hall​​ You can hang a red rope on the top of the mountain. It is recommended to bring your own blessing cards for a more special experience. 3⃣️ Hidden gameplay: You can eat vegetarian food and drink tea in the vegetarian hall next to the temple, and the price is 10 yuan per person. The best time to take photos is from 3 to 5 pm on a sunny day. The golden light of the Buddha statue + the soft light and shadow are absolutely beautiful 4⃣️ Notes: Drones are prohibited from flying (near Shuangliu Airport)​ Do not wear short skirts/slippers, respect temple etiquette 🚩Nearby Tours ✅ Recommended one-day tour: Baiyun Temple → Laojun Mountain hiking (famous Taoist mountain) → Taiping Old Street (retro fireworks) → Xinjin River fresh (yellow croaker is superb!) ✅ Subway direct access to other attractions: Line 10 can also go to Yingtian Temple and Laojun Mountain, suitable for lazy people to check in~​ 📍Location: No. 1, Liuhe Road, Xinjin District, Chengdu City ⏰Time: 07:00-20:00 (recommended for 2-3 hours) 💰Tickets: Free! free! free! Standing at the foot of the thousand-year-old Buddha statue and watching the planes flying across the sky, at that moment, it seemed as if time and space were intertwined here. Yellow walls, red ropes, incense burning, everything you ask for will come true, and your path will be smooth🙏
