Just came back from Shaoxing: The route to Xinchang Big Buddha Temple you must know

Just came back from Xinchang, Shaoxing, and was deeply shocked by the unique charm of the Big Buddha Temple Scenic Area❗ This is not only a place for worshiping Buddha and meditating. It is also a "Jiangnan Grottoes Museum"~ There are many TV drama shooting locations, which are really good~ Don't get up early to travel, with Xinchang delicious snacks from "Wozhou Road", Enjoy the double enjoyment of vision and taste~ - 🌟Specific check-in route (less walking version): Entrance to Shicheng City Wall➡️Take the shuttle bus under the plaque➡️Buddha Heart Square (check in with the Buddha character)➡️Big Buddha Temple (the No. 1 Big Buddha in Jiangnan)➡️Prajna Valley➡️Qiguang Jingyuan➡️Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda➡️Thousand Buddha Zen Temple➡️Reclining Buddha Hall➡️Scenic area entrance➡️Wozhou Road food - 🌟Specific check-in points: 🔸Take the shuttle bus (💰5 yuan/person): Go to Foxin Square, which is very suitable for the elderly or lazy people . 🔸Buddha Heart Square: Check in at the huge "Buddha" cliff stone carving. Looking down from the air, the stone below is a "heart" character . 🔸Foxin Temple: Check in at the No. 1 Buddha in Jiangnan, and the "Fuzi Corridor", with yellow walls and black tiles, is very suitable for taking photos of ancient costumes~ Walking inside is the Xiongbao Hall. The entire building is located in the picturesque mountains and is surrounded by dense woods. It feels like you have come to an ancient temple 1,600 years ago~ . 🔸Prajna Valley: This is a scenic spot transformed from an abandoned quarry. The giant reliefs and stone carvings are really shocking. . 🔸Qiguangjingyuan and Wanfo Pagoda: The iconic building in the TV series "Lotus Tower", a Chinese-style pavilion over 70 meters high, an octagonal pagoda. Standing under the tower, it feels very sacred and beautiful~ . 🔸Reclining Buddha Hall (Asia's No. 1️⃣largest indoor reclining Buddha): On the way to the Reclining Buddha Hall, there are also the City God Temple and the Thousand Buddhas Temple. The stone carvings in the grottoes can truly feel the imprint of history. Walking along the stone wall plank road, you can overlook the scenery of the entire scenic area along the way~ Looking into the distance, there is a stone statue mountain of "Maitreya Buddha"~ ❗Tips: The Reclining Buddha Hall is really shocking. The Buddha's head is lowered, and his eyebrows and eyes are compassionate as if he has pity on all living beings. It seems that time has stopped, and it has become quiet all of a sudden~ - 🌟Warm Tips: 🔸About tickets: 💰80 yuan/person (7:00-17:00) . 🔸About transportation: Self-driving: about 1.5 hours from Hangzhou. There is a parking lot in the scenic area, but it is very popular during holidays. You can park in a nearby parking lot High-speed rail: to Shengzhou Xinchang Station, take a taxi to the scenic spot in 15 minutes~ . 🔸About food: You can try vegetarian food and noodles in the scenic area, but it is recommended to go to the city to eat snacks ("Wozhou Road" about 600m away from the scenic area~ . 🔸Some areas in the Big Buddha Temple require climbing stairs, and there are many walking areas. It is recommended to wear comfortable sports shoes~ - I am a tourist in my hometown, and this treasure town of Xinchang is worth a trip in the opposite direction!
