beautiful Confucian temple

Playing in Pingyao Ancient City like me is wrong

Pingyao is one of my favorite ancient cities in Shanxi, but you don't have to hold the mentality of 'since I'm here', and visit all the escort agencies and ticket numbers in Pingyao Ancient City. They are too similar, whether it's architecture, exhibits or introductions, you can choose one or two representative places to visit; and the Pingyao Confucian Temple in the corner of the ancient city is my favorite, what's even more amazing is the Guoer Temple in Shuanglin Town outside the ancient city, with a reasonable arrangement for the day, you can catch all the wonderful ancient sites in Pingyao —Morning— 📍Pingyao City Tower The city tower is still quiet in the early morning, the street is extremely quiet and beautiful, covered with peacock blue, yellow, and green glazed tiles, three-tiered eaves and mountain tops, the ends of the ridge are exquisitely ironed, it is the symbol of Pingyao 📍China Ticket Number Museum How can you say you've been to Pingyao without going to China's earliest 'ticket number', take a look at the actual tickets and passbooks, and listen to the story of China's earliest banking system 📍Pingyao Confucian Temple Because the location is too cornered, there are much fewer tourists in the Confucian Temple. Pingyao Confucian Temple is the oldest existing Confucian temple in China, and also the oldest building in the ancient city, rebuilt in the Jin Dynasty. The Dacheng Hall is five rooms wide and ten rafters deep, it can be described as a grand construction! Also appreciate the huge 'Kui' character behind, and jump a 'Dragon Gate' —Afternoon— 📍Zhen Guo Temple The Wanfo Hall (built in 963) of Zhen Guo Temple is one of the four buildings of the Five Dynasties in China. Since the Tang Dynasty, only the buildings of the Five Dynasties and the Liao Dynasty have inherited the Tang style, the stretched and gentle eaves are pleasing to the eye, and the hall miraculously preserves the only colored sculptures of the Five Dynasties in China, and the murals are also relics of the Five Dynasties. Getting the Wanfo Hall is also the luck of Pingyao. The entrance of Zhen Guo Temple is the almost unnoticed Li Ying Hou Temple of Pingyao, another national treasure, but the gate is always closed; self-driving or taxiing, you can visit the nearby Ci Xiang Temple, the Lu Tai Pagoda inside is not a Buddhist pagoda but a monk's spirit pagoda, the first floor is a 16-hole beamless arch door added in the Qing Dynasty 📍Shuanglin Temple The pinnacle of Yuan and Ming colored sculptures, in addition to the wide-eyed Vajra, the leisurely Guanyin, the highly artistic Weituo, the 26-handed Guanyin in the Bodhisattva Hall, I also suggest you pay attention to the hanging sculptures that can be described as covering the sky, according to statistics, there are a total of 2056 colored sculptures in Shuanglin Temple! It is the 'Temple of Ten Thousand Gods' in Pingyao, and also the top art and aesthetic hall in China ❗Practical information 🍜Food: Tian Yuan Kui Restaurant Recommended food: Beef copper hot pot, beef truffle, yellow rice cold cake, long dragon eggplant, vinegar egg 🎫Tickets: Ancient city: 123, visit each attraction once, valid for three days; Shuanglin Temple: 28, Zhen Guo Temple: 20, if you want a paper ticket for souvenir, you must buy it offline 🚌Transportation: Bus 108 has a Shuanglin Temple station, and bus 209 has a Zhen Guo Temple station
