A Buddhist kingdom in the southwest

✨🌄 Fly over mountains and rivers to a place that seems to have come out of a dream - Menghuan Grand Golden Pagoda! 🌟 🚗 Mangshi is still shrouded in a gentle mist in the morning. I feel like an explorer, riding a taxi on the winding mountain road. The golden pagoda is like a treasure hidden in the clouds, slowly revealing its mysterious veil! 🏰✨ 👣 As soon as I step into this holy land, I feel like I have traveled to another time and space. The reliefs on the mountain gate tell the story of the ancient palm-leaf manuscript. Every step I take is on a lotus flower, and I feel my soul is purified! 🌸🙏 🦁 The golden lion guards the road to the main pagoda. I walk around the pagoda three times clockwise. The silver bell rings and the prayer wheel spins, as if every sound is a blessing from ancient times. 🔔✨ The more than 2,000 glass mirrors reflect colorful halos in the sunlight, creating a beautiful scene like a real-life fairyland! 🌈 📸 Don't forget to check in! The observation deck in the southeast corner is a great place to take pictures of the sea of clouds. The Mangshi Basin is like a huge emerald floating in the clouds, and the mountains of Myanmar loom in the distance. What a picture! 🏞️📷 📝 Here are some tips for you: 👉 Transportation: A taxi from the city center costs only CNY 15, or you can take Bus No. 6 to the foot of the mountain and walk for 15 minutes to get there easily! 👉 Tickets: CNY 40, half price for students. Open all day, come whenever you want! 👉 Photo spots: The White Elephant Square on the east side, where you can take panoramic photos; one hour before sunset, the golden pagoda shines brightly, so beautiful! 👉 Dress code: Respect the religious culture, wear long pants and a shoulder-length shirt. If you don't want to wear them, you can rent a Dai skirt, which is beautiful! 👉 Food: Don't rush down the mountain. Try "Achang Guoshou Rice Noodles" (avocado juice) and a cup of Paluda to cool off in the summer! 🍜🥤 🕊️ The most unforgettable moment was when I met a little monk under the sacred Bodhi tree. His smile was warmer than the sun. The pigeons flew up, and the golden pagoda shone in the sunlight. At that moment, I seemed to hear the whisper of time... 🕊️✨ There are 13 sacred Bodhi trees in the world, and only 3 in China. I was lucky enough to pick up a few leaves, make them into specimens, write some words, and put them in a photo frame. 🏷️ Come here and let your soul take a trip! 🛫💖
