Autumn at Beijing's Wuta Temple...

Just got back from Wuta Temple, and I was completely captivated by the scenery. It's a very niche and beautiful place. 🌟🌟 It's said to be the Angkor Wat of China, with 700 years of architectural history. Besides its historical and cultural significance, you can also enjoy the large persimmon trees and a few ginkgo trees. Now, the persimmons are hanging on the branches, and the ginkgo trees are turning yellow, waiting for you to admire them. 📍Address: Wuta Temple Village, Haidian District. Stone Carving Museum. 🚇Subway: Line 4/16/9, National Library Station, Exit B, on the left 👈. 💰Ticket: CNY 20 🕐Hours: 9:00–17:00, closed on Mondays 🌟🌟The main attractions of Wuta Temple are the historically rich Vajra Pagoda and several other small pagodas, followed by its stone carving artworks, and finally the beautiful scenery in the garden. 🌟🌟The Vajra Pagoda is a favorite among photographers. Whether from the front, side, or back, it offers different visual experiences. The morning, noon, and afternoon light also create different feelings. The red door is very photogenic. Creative people are everywhere, and many use mineral water bottles to capture the reflection of the pagoda, which looks great. 🌟🌟The stone carving art is a treasure trove of artistic masterpieces, showcasing the labor achievements and artistic value of that era. It's definitely worth seeing. It's best to get an electronic guide to understand all the stone carving art. 🌟🌟The ancient ginkgo trees in the garden look like they've been around for hundreds of years, yet they still stand strong, having weathered centuries of storms, guarding this precious land. They should turn a beautiful yellow in mid-November. 🌟🌟There are indeed many persimmon trees, with one every three steps, which is not an exaggeration. The trees are lush, with abundant and plump fruits, hanging like red lanterns on the branches, heralding the arrival of another autumn. Oh, by the way, the river at the main entrance is called the Nanchang River, where you can take a boat ride from the zoo to the Summer Palace. In the afternoon, looking at the arch bridge over the river, the shimmering water and the golden Chinese pistache trees become even more vibrant, creating a stunning view. Autumn in Beijing is beautiful. If you have time, you can bring your camera to Wuta Temple for some photos. It's also a great way to relax.
