ALEXA WELLS

Sacred Land of Brahma

Xilitu Zhao is the second paid attraction I checked in at Hohhot. Location: Near the head lane of Xiaozhao Qian Street, Yuquan District, Hohhot. You can scan the code at the entrance of the scenic spot to listen to the explanation for free. Xilitu is Mongolian, meaning chief or Dharma seat. The Chinese name of Xilitu Zhao is Yanshou Temple, which was given by Kangxi. The temple has gone through more than 400 years of wind and rain, and it is still relatively well preserved now. Tour order: Mountain gate-Drum Tower-Bodhi Hall-Meidai Temple-Dharma Hall-Sutra Hall Buddha Hall-Longevity Buddha Pagoda-Naichun Temple-Bell Tower. The stele pavilion in front of the main hall is under renovation. It is said to be the stele of Galdan's merits. The Han white jade Buddha pagoda is 15m high and is inlaid with many glazed gems. Many young ladies are taking pictures here. Overall feeling: The scenic spot is very beautiful, it takes about an hour to go around, and if there are many people taking pictures, you need to wait.
