Xi'an | Finally found the same Qinglong Temple as in 'Forever and Ever'

Recently, the TV dramas starring Bailu have been 🔥 skyrocketing, and it's a good time to revisit the treasure filming location of 'Forever and Ever', the Qinglong Temple in Xi'an. The place that people usually check in more is the New Chang'an Big Buddha Temple; the Anding Gate of the Xi'an ancient city wall; today, let's take a look at this less-known treasure temple: Qinglong Temple in Xi'an. 📍 No.18 Yanxiang Road, 590 meters walk from Exit G of Qinglong Temple Station on Line 5 🎫 Free🆓 visit: 9:00-16:30 (reservation available 7 days in advance) 👣 Qinglong Temple, founded in the second year of the Sui Kaihuang era, which is 582 AD, was built by Emperor Wen of Sui when he constructed the new capital Daxing City, to pray for the souls that were relocated, initially named Linggan Temple. In the second year of Tang Emperor Ruizong's Jingyun era, which is 711 AD, it was renamed Qinglong Temple. Because of its high location, it offers a view of Qujiang Pond and Furong Garden to the south, and the Imperial City to the north, and has always been a place for literati to climb and enjoy since ancient times. The poem by Li Shangyin, 'Feeling unwell in the evening, I drive my carriage up the ancient plain. The setting sun is infinitely beautiful, but it's near dusk,' was written here. 📷 'Forever and Ever' check-in spots: the steps at the temple entrance, the prayer tree path inside Qinglong Temple, the entrance of the main temple hall. 🍛 Cuisine: Please bring a 512G stomach for Xi'an's food 😅 1⃣️ Chang'an Big Stall: Brush Crisp, Lychee Balls, Calabash Chicken 2⃣️ Jia San Soup Dumplings: Beef Soup Dumplings, Spicy and Sour Tripe Soup 😋 3⃣️ Hui Fang Ma Er Dumpling House: Sour Soup Dumplings 🥟 4⃣️ Chang'an's Tea Yan Yue Se: Tea Talk
