Today up early the next day, less than 6:00 to get up, 6:00 start, hotel waiter took us along a small ran great temple, at 6:30, before the staff do not work, we can mix with the local people into the morning exercises, 50 tickets to save money.
Panting to the door, there is a monk and a few plain-clothed in the chat, we are pretending to be cool to mix into it. Succeed later, focusing instead go for a long time before another congratulations to realize this long-lost feeling of joy.
There are about 400 meters across an air-raid shelters, came Monastery, a large group of women followed the "China magic" of the song to practice fan power, emotion here is a place for fitness.
Not viewing the big temple picture, we can vaguely feel ancient temples of the style, yellow walls and red tile roofs, and ancient trees. Walk a few steps west is the south where the first Buddha, the Buddha is a Buddha, and the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, like errant rock carved directly on the high 16 meters south of the body volume.
The most distinctive of which is the water area: Wisdom Valley in the east of the rock back there is a Guanyin statue, like the former Yihong pool, left a very narrow stone steps, every down, but is a layer, a Goddess of Mercy and another Fengzi, Beishanmianshui. Progress downward into the underground channel, top of the head is a lotus-shaped dome light, the atmosphere solemn mystery. Walk 20 meters away, the right hand side emerged in a cave called "Guanghua world" and put on slippers, and then the right line which is a Vihara, in the middle of a golden Buddha, the four walls are inlaid with mirrors, so space is put to the infinite, step by step in, really would have been Shezhu.
Out of the channel, the head is a waterfall, rock on "Zen source" two characters, there may be climbing the stone steps, the suit nowadays developers stir the "water" concept. Up to the heights, they discover that their original Prajna unconsciously has reached the west side of the valley. Such ingenuity, the domestic as rare, should be regarded as the most unique landscape of large Buddhist temple.
Other attractions include a tree petrified forest, 500 Luohandong, Maitreya big head and so on, like a general. 500 Rohan and its carving quality is poor, in front of the lawn is actually very nice.
Remember that the former visited temples are similar, one of about a square yard, there are three-five into the courtyard, both sides are symmetrical wing, a number of flora. The Big Buddha Temple and the greatly expanded my trip to the "temple" understanding. Big Buddha Temple as a whole is a huge garden, which has peaks, lakes, woods, large areas of lawn. According to online presentations, large temple covers an area of 25 square kilometers, which was rather alarming, Nankai University, the equivalent of 50! We do not have to make travel to every corner of the reliability of this figure do not know if that is so, I wonder if the country's largest monasteries.
Xinchang noon, it began to downpour, and we left in the rain, panic, rushed to the next destination: Xianju.
First hit of the to the roof, 100 yuan; and then take buses to the left-yin, then hailed in the street to the white water ocean, and then reversing the baishuiyang to Xianju. All the way to the west, language, more and more difficult to understand, from Ningbo buddies can also be filled in Xinchang to translate, this time has no value, so everyone had put in the hands of baggage to give him a few points.
5 pm, and finally arrived in Xianju County, staying in star hotels, four people live in luxury suites, 190 yuan per night.
Downstairs, from the "civilized floor" into the old town, from the streets through a little bit like in Fuzhou 3 Square Qixiang walk in feeling. After the Old City from the west gate out front suddenly see the light, while also losing a certain character, that is, an ordinary town look.
In the "Jia Wang," ate, street useful air gun shooting game, the impression has not played more than ten years, and in fact few hours to play, look at the time mostly because of money. Upstart pondered the psychological on the inflated: Grandma's, I have money! Able to Wande Qi a! !
Then carry a gun for a while.
Xianju significantly less than from the point of view Xinchang city, people seem not as good Xinchang side.
Tomorrow going to drift, BU Beach Town, the West foment Temple.
In large Buddhist temple to see some couplets, in general the standard is not high, but also some large vernacular. I remember two couplets are as follows:
Kegon Temple: willingness to earth 3000 years of East / West, Pin Zhi Lian best kinds of Maitreya in hospital: Department has no harm to the true face of / right person will have to be big belly
2002/5/2, Xianju, star hotels, 8306 rooms.
