Zhengding Ancient Town
One of the best experience visiting Shijiazhuang last time, Zhengding Ancient Town really gave me a good impression. It's an ancient city with many beautiful spots and lanterns. Recommended time to visit: 2-4 hours.
Tips: I recommend you to avoid Chinese National Public Holidays (such as Chinese New Year, Labor Days, or National Day Holiday) while visiting Zhengding Ancient Town since there will be too many people and the traffic will be packed with more vehicles.

Half-Day Tour to Longquan Ancient Town
What Longquan Ancient Town, Deming Ancient Town
When I was a child, there was only Zhengding Ancient City
So I have a strong aversion to these "ancient towns" that were born in the 21st century
Today, thanks to a relative, I visited this newly built Longquan Ancient Town
And I really think it's worth the 95 yuan ticket price
1️⃣ First of all, the scale, as a person with a recently healed fracture
I really held back the family tour group
We walked less than 1/4 of it
It's really big
2️⃣ Next is the landscape, it is said that although the houses inside are new, the details on the rooftops and eaves, the door panels, are all old items collected from various places
So if you say this is an ancient town
It indeed has the flavor of an ancient town
3️⃣ The third point is the popularity, it's so bustling, the food street (sorry I don't remember what it's called, it's all about food), although the food is the same in ancient towns across the country, stinky tofu, roujiamo, grilled gluten, grilled squid and lamb skewers, one-meter-long fries, candied haws... But the atmosphere is there, it's so lively, unknowingly a few people ate a lot
4️⃣ Lastly, the culture. As a disabled person who couldn't walk much, I just sat by the river to rest for a while, sometimes it was the emperor's procession, sometimes fairies dancing on the bridge, and occasionally warriors riding big horses passing by
There was so much to see
Many tourists visiting the gardens were dressed in Hanfu or horse-face skirts
Very interesting
From time to time, you see fairies appearing
Hehehe
It was really a trip worth taking
At night, soaking my swollen ankle
I feel like I can still travel when I go back to my hometown

Longxing Temple Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Checked in at the Five-Tai Mountain Spring in Zhengding County, Longxing Temple
💧Five-Tai Mountain Spring💦Checked in✔️ at Longxing Temple
📍Zhongshan East Road, Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang, Hebei
In order to catch a glimpse of the 'Eastern Venus' in Lu Xun's eyes,
I came to Zhengding County, the hometown of Zhao Zilong of Changshan.
Got off the bus at Zhao Yun Temple and walked to the famous Longxing Temple.
The Venus is in the main hall, the Mani Hall, behind the golden Mani wall.
The back wall is carved with more than 30 scenes of the South Sea and Buddha statues.
Mountains upon mountains, auspicious clouds winding, it's like a fairyland.
The colorful Guanyin slightly leans forward, sitting in the center with knees hugged.
Elegant as a fairy, compassionate as Buddha, majestic as a deity.
Liang Sicheng said: 'How full of human touch she is,
no matter which direction you look at her from,
she can turn her eyes to look at you, looking down,
as if wanting to converse with you.'
Photos cannot convey the overwhelming shock of the sculpture,
nor can they capture the gentle downward gaze of the Venus Bodhisattva.
The Great Compassion Pavilion houses a 21.3-meter-tall bronze statue of the Thousand-Handed and Thousand-Eyed Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Aside from the two hands clasped in front of the chest, there are 20 arms on each side,
holding the sun, moon, treasure vase, vajra, sword, and other ritual implements,
and each is adorned with an eye, a thousand hands to protect sentient beings, a thousand eyes to observe the world.
The huge Sumeru base and stone carvings below the Guanyin statue are incredibly exquisite.
In addition to the most beautiful colorful hanging carvings and the tallest Guanyin bronze statue,
there are also the Pilu Buddha statue covered with a thousand Buddhas and the revolving scripture repositories, etc.
Longxing Temple has witnessed the development and changes of Northern Buddhist culture,
and is one of the ancient temples with the most Song Dynasty sculptures and stone carvings still in existence.
The First Scenery of Zhengding - Longxing Temple (Part One)
I have visited many temples both domestically and internationally, but I didn't expect to be so 'shaken' by my visit to the 'Longxing Temple' in Zhengding this time. It truly deserves to be called the top attraction of Zhengding! With an area of over 80,000 square meters, you could wander around for half a day. The key point is that every Buddha statue in each room is worth exclaiming over! Take the multicolored hanging mountain for example, with its three-dimensional layers, exquisite and complex statues, and brilliant colors. It measures 15.7 meters in length and 7.5 meters in height. This relief sculpture art form, which combines sculpture with painting, miniaturizes the spectacular and lively scene of Guanyin preaching at Mount Putuo Luo on the wall. The Guanyin Bodhisattva sitting in the center breaks through the rigid style of religious Buddha statues. With its soft body curves and graceful and dignified posture, it is a superior work that interprets the secularization of Song Dynasty Guanyin statues, hence it is known as the 'Eastern Goddess of Beauty'. Also, because it faces south while sitting opposite to the direction of the main hall, it is also called the 'Inverted Seated Guanyin', one of the six unique features of Longxing Temple. If you look closely, the Guanyin appears so carefree and unrestrained. Even the Buddha is like this, yet we mortals often cannot let go. Alas, I still need to adjust my mindset . And then there's the wooden Maitreya Bodhisattva, standing 7.4 meters tall, carved from a single piece of wood during the Northern Song period, with a flame pattern halo over 8 meters tall behind it, symbolizing the boundlessness of Buddha's teachings and illuminating the earth. Such a standing wooden Bodhisattva is also rare. Don't rush to admire it, because there's still the 'Great Treasure' to come. The 'Samadhi Earth' Thousand-Handed Buddha can directly cure cervical spondylosis . Inside the Great Compassion Pavilion stands a tall bronze Great Bodhisattva, known as the 'Great Compassion Bodhisattva', which is 19.2 meters tall and stands on a 2.2-meter-high Sumeru stone platform. It is the best-preserved and tallest bronze Guanyin Bodhisattva statue in China. The statue was commissioned by Emperor Taizu of Song, Zhao Kuangyin, and has 42 arms, also known as the 'Thousand-Handed, Thousand-Eyed Guanyin'. Each arm holds objects such as the sun and moon, a purification bottle, a pagoda, a vajra, a treasure sword, etc. Unfortunately, the 40 pairs of bronze arms on both sides have been destroyed and replaced with wood, with only the two arms in front of the chest being original. Standing beneath it, one truly feels how insignificant they are. Take a bow, and may the grandeur of this Buddha's teachings drive away the demons of this world!
The Six National Treasures of the Millennium Ancient Temple: Longxing Temple (Longzang Temple)
Longxing Temple, originally named Longzang Temple and later renamed during the Tang Dynasty, is located in Zhengding, Hebei. In the year 971, by the decree of Emperor Zhao Kuangyin, a huge 42-armed bronze statue of the Thousand-Handed Guanyin Bodhisattva was cast inside the temple, and the Dabeige (Great Mercy Pavilion) was constructed. Subsequently, the architectural complex of the Song Dynasty with the Dabeige as the main body was completed one after another. During the Jin, Yuan, and Ming dynasties, the temple's buildings were repaired and expanded. During the reigns of Kangxi and Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, the temple underwent two major renovations, and in the 49th year of Kangxi's reign, the temple was granted the name 'Longxing Temple', which has been used to this day.
From its inception until the end of the Qing Dynasty, Longxing Temple was favored by emperors of successive dynasties. Emperors Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, Jiaqing, Guangxu, and Empress Dowager Cixi all visited, stayed, and offered incense to Buddha. The six cultural relics in the temple are considered the best in the country:
1. The Mani Hall, a unique architectural example praised by the ancient architecture expert Mr. Liang Sicheng as a 'rare and precious case'
2. The inverted Guanyin statue in the Mani Hall, hailed by Mr. Lu Xun as the 'Goddess of Beauty of the East'
3. The earliest and largest prayer wheel repository in China
4. The Longzang Temple Stele, revered as the 'number one stele of the Sui Dynasty'
5. The tallest ancient bronze statue of the Thousand-Handed Guanyin in China
6. The most exquisite ancient bronze statue of Vairocana Buddha in China
The Ming dynasty clay Amitabha Buddha, gilded and dedicated to single-mindedly chanting the dharma name by Buddhist devotees
❤️ In Longxing Temple of Zhengding County, Hebei Province, after exiting the Great Compassion Pavilion and continuing northward, you will arrive at the Amitabha Hall. Built in the fifth year of the Zhengde era of the Ming dynasty (1510), it was extensively repaired during the Qing dynasty. The hall features a single-eave hipped-gable roof, is five bays wide and four bays deep. As the hall does not have bracket sets, the entire beam frame is constructed by connecting large and small extra beams, purlins, etc., with the columns, displaying a style reminiscent of the Yuan dynasty.
🧡 In the center of the hall, on a 1.57-meter-high Sumeru pedestal, the Ming dynasty clay Amitabha Buddha is enshrined, gilded and magnificent. To the west, stone sculptures of the Eighteen Arhats are offered. The Buddha has a flesh bun and snail-like hair, long earlobes, eyes looking downward, is draped in a kasaya, with hands folded in front of the abdomen in a meditative gesture, seated in a lotus position on a lotus base, measuring 3.99 meters in height. It is said that Buddhist devotees believe that as long as one chants the name 'Amitabha Buddha' wholeheartedly, Amitabha Buddha will guide the chanters to be reborn in the Pure Land.
💜 Some compare Longxing Temple to a beautiful symphony with ups and downs, pleasing to the eye and heart. If the Great Compassion Pavilion is the climax of this symphony, then the Amitabha Hall is the subdued and gentle passage that follows the climax.

Hebei Provincial Museum Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
This one article is enough! A two-day, one-night travel guide to Shijiazhuang
⭐So close and so beautiful, head to Hebei for the weekend! Shijiazhuang, as the capital of Hebei Province, has always been relatively unknown, but it is known as the city brought by train, with a profound cultural heritage and strong playability. The consumption is not high, and you can have a lot of fun in just two days and one night. Come and take a look with me!
⭐Accommodation: Hey, when you get to Shijiazhuang, let's put down our luggage and take a break. ❗It is recommended to stay near the Provincial Museum. The Provincial Museum is located in the center of Shijiazhuang, with plenty of food, fun, and convenient transportation nearby, and the accommodation is not expensive. This cost-performance ratio is loved
Day1
1️⃣Hebei Museum
Reservation: Search for Hebei Museum on the vx👸🏻 account to make a reservation. Important note❗Closed on Mondays. If you can't book online, you can get a ticket on-site with your ID card.
Exhibits: The essence is on the second floor of the south area, where the Hebei Museum reflects the profound cultural heritage and ethnic culture of the land of Yan and Zhao. At the same time, it is very educational, 🉑scan the code to see the introduction of the exhibits, and there are also AI videos to restore the history of tombs and dynasties.
Treasures of the museum: Changxin Palace Lantern, Wrong Gold Boshan Furnace, Liu Sheng's Gold-threaded Jade Clothing (all in the Mancheng Han Tomb exhibition hall on the 2nd floor)
2️⃣Shijiazhuang Restaurant: If you seriously visit the Hebei Museum, it might take a whole day, and for dining, I recommend the Shijiazhuang Restaurant next to the museum. The smoked meat pancake and Red Star buns are top specialties in the city, and there was a long queue when I went, with locals buying them by the big bagful. But personally, I still think the buns from Tianjin are tastier, to each their own
3️⃣In the evening, you can check out the CBD night view in our city, Wanlimiao Pedestrian Street (if you're lucky, you can see the internet-famous driving test dance), and Beiguo Shopping Mall, a huge mall with ten floors.
Day2
⭐Zhengding Ancient City: You can take a bus or taxi, which costs about 30r from the city center and takes about half an hour. The nine towers and eight temples of Zhengding Ancient City are really worth seeing!
Recommended travel route: Longxing Temple - Tianning Temple - Linji Temple - Guanghui Temple - City Wall (from north to south)
1️⃣Longxing Temple A must-visit
The cross-shaped Mani Hall is praised by Liang Sicheng as the pinnacle of art
The colorful suspended sculpture of Guanyin, called the Eastern Goddess of Beauty by Lu Xun
A dialogue across a thousand years, the clearly layered Ming dynasty murals
The earliest existing regular script stele inscription 'Longzang Temple Stele'
The two-meter-tall bronze Thousand-Handed and Thousand-Eyed Guanyin
2️⃣Tianning Temple Guanghui Temple Kaiyuan Temple Linji Temple
Each temple has a well-preserved, unique pagoda. They are Tianning Temple's Lingxiao Pagoda, Kaiyuan Temple's Sumi Pagoda, Guanghui Temple's Hua Pagoda, and Linji Temple's Ching Ling Pagoda. These temples are not as large as Longxing Temple, and you can see and take photos from the outside. If you want to go inside, it is recommended to buy an 80r joint ticket offline.
3️⃣Zhengding Ancient City Wall
Be sure to climb the city wall to watch the sunset and night view. The lights are usually turned on around 7:55 pm. There is also a lantern festival around the Lantern Festival, but it's very crowded.
4️⃣Zhengding Cuisine: Wuqi Road Noodle Board, Hao Family Ribs, Hele Noodles, Beef Covered Pancakes
Things to avoid:
1️⃣The original site of Zhaozhou Bridge is no longer there, and you can only see the newly built reinforced concrete bridge in recent years.
2️⃣The Rongguo Mansion in Zhengding Ancient City, which was built for the filming of the 1987 version of 'Dream of the Red Chamber', is sold separately. Personally, I feel that it is not worth visiting and is a place you will regret visiting.
Don't miss out on the grand opportunity to visit the Shengshi Xiudian!
💝 The Shengshi Xiudian Grand Exhibition of Chinese Paintings through the Ages at the Hebei Museum is nearing the end of its five-month exhibition period. Friends who love calligraphy and painting, make sure to schedule your visit in advance!
💝 This exhibition showcases the treasures of Chinese painting from all dynasties, demonstrating the profoundness and breadth of Chinese culture.

Each painting is a witness to history and a treasure of art.
💝 Such an exhibition not only allows us to appreciate beautiful paintings but also enables us to deeply understand the profoundness of Chinese culture, feel the weight of history, and the charm of art. If you want to visit, make sure to add it to your schedule!
Hebei Museum Intangible Heritage Reception Hall
"Enjoy Hebei" Intangible Heritage Reception Hall is the first provincial-level intangible heritage exhibition hall in Hebei Province.
Visitors can admire the "antique reception hall" formed by the "Eight Wonders of Yanjing", including the carved lacquer inlaid screen throne, the cloisonné incense burner and fragrance, the lacquer carved hanging screen, and the representative famous kilns and porcelains from the whole province; they will experience the "antique study" assembled with various stationery, the writing desk and curio shelves made with ancient furniture craftsmanship, the snuff bottles with inside painting that are a world of their own, the colorful twisted porcelain, and the exquisite lacquer carved paperweights and pen containers.

Zhengding Rongguofu Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Rong Guofu must be familiar with everyone. I have seen the 86th edition of the Dream of Red Mansions will feel very cordial, here is the location of the TV series.
Every important holiday, Liu Wei of Rongguofu will welcome the guests at the door, and the girls in the palace will all appear together, all smiles. It will really bring people's thoughts to novels or TV dramas.
Buy a bunch of candied haws or sugar people, go shopping in the house, and go on a journey through time and space to make the weekend life more fulfilling!
Dream of the Red Chamber - Rongguo Mansion
Rongguo Mansion, located in Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province, is an ancient-style architectural complex with the culture of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties as its background. In 1986, it was built with an investment of more than 3.5 million yuan by the People's Government of Zhengding County. The main attractions of Rongguo Mansion include the Rongguo Mansion Scenic Area, Ningrong Street Scenic Area, and the Cao Xueqin Memorial Hall. Covering an area of 22,000 square meters and a building area of 4,700 square meters, it is designed and constructed based on the 'Rongguo Mansion' depicted in the Chinese classic 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. Rongguo Mansion has been rated as a national AAAA-level tourist attraction, an advanced project in basic construction, a designated tourism unit in Hebei Province, and a key cultural relics protection unit at the county level in Zhengding.
Geographical location: No. 51 Xingrong Road, Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang City
Rongguo Mansion Scenic Area ticket price: 40 yuan/person
Rongguo Mansion in Sighing over the Red Mansions (Part Two)
This is one of the filming locations of the 1987 version of Dream of the Red Chamber - Rongguo Mansion in Hebei Zhengding. When you come to Zhengding, this scenic spot is a must-see. The ticket is a bit pricey at 40 yuan, which is not cheap for someone like me who is used to spending 2 yuan to visit the Ditan Park in Beijing, but... since I'm here , the area of this place is actually not small. It takes about one or two hours to walk around the whole place. Inside, it introduces many plots from the Dream of the Red Chamber TV series, corresponding character stories, etc. I arrived a bit late, and there are many begonias and peonies in this courtyard, but unfortunately, they are already past their blooming period. However, it's also good not to come during the holidays, as there are relatively fewer tourists, and you don't have to jostle with others for photos. Since it's not an ancient relic, the commercial atmosphere inside is quite strong. You can't walk a few steps without seeing various tourist shops, and the items inside are up to personal preference. If you like something, just pick two or three items.
