Explore Guoqing Temple on Tiantai Mountain – A Hidden Summer Getaway 🌿☀️

#chinatravel Despite the scorching 40°C heat, visiting Guoqing Temple on Tiantai Mountain in Taizhou, Zhejiang was absolutely worth it! This free 5A-rated scenic spot, originally built during the Sui Dynasty and restored in the Qing Dynasty, is rich in history and charm. Unlike many grand and crowded temples, Guoqing Temple is tucked away in the shade of the mountains, surrounded by ancient trees and flowing streams – like a natural oxygen bar. Most visitors come to cool off by the water and offer prayers in this peaceful sanctuary. 📸 With sunlight filtering through the trees and reflecting off the temple rooftops, every angle is picture-perfect — truly Instagram-worthy! If you have more time, explore nearby natural attractions like: • Tiantai Mountain Grand Waterfall • Shiliang Waterfall These are also ideal spots for summer adventures and peaceful retreats! #travel #trip #china #staycation #thingstodo #myitinerary
