"A journey through the history and culture of Longxing Temple over a thousand years"🏯

#2月好去地方2025 Today I came to Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, and started a historical journey through time and space! 🚶♂️✨ The first stop is Longqing Temple. This temple is located on the western foot of Jinshan Mountain, on the bank of Lingjiang River, and at the southern end of Ziyang Street. It is picturesque, as if you have walked into a poem scroll from the Tang Dynasty. 🏞️📜 The history of Longxing Temple can be traced back to the first year of Shenlong in the Tang Dynasty (705), which is more than 1,300 years ago! 😱 The restored temple is an imitation of Tang Dynasty architecture, elegant and simple, solemn and generous, with unique style. 🏯 There are the Heavenly King Hall, the Great Hall, the Bell Tower, the Thousand Buddha Pagoda and the Pure Land Courtyard in the temple, each of which is full of a heavy sense of history. 🔔🛕 Today's visit made me deeply feel the profoundness of history and the integration of culture, as if I had traveled through thousands of years and had a conversation with the ancients. 🗣️⏳ This is not only a visual feast, but also a baptism of the soul. 🧘♂️💖 📍No. 3-3, Chicheng Road, Linhai City, Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province #Longxing Temple#Zhejiang Province #Taizhou
