Hidden in the bamboo forest on the east side of Daxiong Mountain in Hangzhou is a temple where you can hear the chanting of nuns every day.

Daxiong Temple in Liangzhu, Hangzhou is located in the bamboo forest on the east side of Daxiong Mountain in Liangzhu Cultural Village. Take the subway to Liangzhu Station and transfer to bus 389M to "Daxiong Temple" Station, then walk up for a few minutes. On the small road leading to the mountain gate of the temple, you would never expect that there is a large and exquisite temple hidden inside, and it is also a historic nunnery. It was first built in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and was rebuilt in 1990 after several periods of abandonment. Daxiong Temple is located in a deep and quiet pine path, which is a good place for cultivation. It is said that in addition to the Fajing Temple in the Three Tianzhu in Hangzhou, the Daxiong Temple in Liangzhu is currently the largest nunnery in Zhejiang. Probably because the temple is located in a remote place, there are not many people coming to the temple, and the incense is not very strong. Judging from the nuns who practice in the temple, it is a pure land of Buddhism.
