Review of Longhua Temple

A historic temple over 1,500 years old that spiritual seekers can easily visit by taking the subway to Longhua Station: Exit 3. Once you exit the station, you'll immediately spot the iconic 7-story pagoda. From there, you can walk straight into the temple. There's no entrance fee, only a charge of 20 RMB for incense. After lighting the incense, you should rotate and offer it in four directions, starting from the front. Then, place the incense in the burner. Just follow what others are doing. After that, you can walk around the temple to pay respects to the Buddha statues. You can also check out the popular bracelets and red strings that people often buy for spiritual purposes. However, I didn’t purchase any myself.
