The Fawang Temple in autumn

I have been in Zhengzhou for two days. Today I went to Fawang Temple to see the golden yellow all over the ground. I liked the ginkgo trees of Shaolin Temple before, but when I came to Fawang Temple, I realized that the two ginkgo trees in front of me are nearly 2000 years old. They were planted in 71 AD and have been blessing the Chinese land until now. If it weren't for being on the spot, it would be impossible to fully appreciate the shock and visual impact of the golden yellow all over the ground. For every encounter and surprise, the wait of a thousand years is worth it. The old monk in the temple said that you can choose some good leaves, take them home to dry, and make tea. I am a little reluctant to take them away. Each of these ginkgo leaves should belong to the earth under its feet. For two thousand years, it has been going round and round, and the cycle is endless.
