Recommended things to do in Ningbo: Qita Zen Temple

Qita Zen Temple is located at No. 183 Baizhang Road, Yinzhou District, Ningbo. The temple hall has an elegant structure, simple and solemn appearance, and is named after the seven pagodas in front of the hall. It is a typical Zen Buddhist seven-hall structure. It was first built in the 12th year of Tang Dazhong (858 AD) and is one of the "Four Major Buddhist Monasteries" in eastern Zhejiang. There are not many tourists, the environment is quiet, some buildings are still under repair, there are cultural relics in the temple, and the masters in the temple are very patient and kind. The ginkgo leaves in front of the temple have turned yellow, giving off a full sense of autumn. A faint fragrance lingers in the temple, which is very calming. The quaint building is also very photogenic. When the weather is good, it is also very comfortable to sit by the koi pond~ 📍Address: No. 183, Baiwen Road, Yinzhou, Ningbo. 🚌Transportation: Jiangxiaqiao Subway Station on Metro Line 1 is about 900 meters away, and buses are also very convenient.
