Chanyuan Temple | Doesn't anyone think this place looks like the Forbidden City?

|Doesn't anyone think this place looks like the Forbidden City? Chanyuan Temple | Doesn't anyone think this place looks like the Forbidden City? 🔥 Honestly, Chanyuan Temple is really beautiful! The architecture resembles the patterns of Dunhuang, and the entire temple truly looks like the Forbidden City. 🌿 There's also a century-old white magnolia tree here, just like the one at Faxi Temple, and the key is that there are very few people!! It's a pity I came late, the white magnolias are almost withered now. 🤷 Friends who want to see the flowers shouldn't get their hopes up, but the architecture inside is really worth a visit. Although I don't know why the temple has this architectural style, it's truly magnificent and resplendent💗💗💗. Taking photos on a sunny day is super beautiful!!!! 😀 The temple is also very pet-friendly. There's a Golden Retriever or Labrador inside (I can't tell the difference), very spiritual, but it wagged its tail and hit me, it hurt. ✔️Destination: Chanyuan Temple, West Tianmu Mountain (The location is relatively remote, driving is recommended) 🚘Parking fee: 10r/24 hrs (The parking lot is very close to the temple, a few minutes' walk up a cement road) 💰Tickets: 20r (Free with Hangzhou Cultural Tourism Card)

Limited to spring! Faxi Temple's magnolia blossoms are here. Miss it and wait another year.

If you can only choose one temple to visit in Hangzhou, I highly recommend Faxi Temple.
