Popular Best Things to Do in Fufeng County [2025]

Famen Temple, an ancient temple, attracts countless visitors with its profound historical heritage and unique cultural charm. Within the temple, towering ancient trees and stately and elegant architecture reveal the traces of time and the mystique of religion. Devout believers and travelers seeking spiritual tranquility can find inner peace and tranquility here. Famen Temple is not only a religious sanctuary, but also a treasured place for spiritual purification.

My photos are all of the treasures unearthed from the underground palace of Famen Temple, taken in the first and third exhibition halls. Some of the treasures have been shipped off, but they&#39;re still enough to dazzle your eyes. I also heard a local tell a story about a pagoda that was photoshopped halfway down in 1981. It was because a pomegranate tree on top was struck by lightning, and the tree&#39;s roots propped the pagoda apart. Then, a month of rain followed, and the pagoda was washed away by the water. It looks like what you see in Figure 9. When the government decided to rebuild it, they discovered the underground palace.

This time I joined the tour group thanks to the tour guide Xiaoniu. He took very good care of us throughout the whole trip, arranged the route reasonably, and took the initiative to introduce the background of the attractions. He also answered any questions in a timely manner. The overall trip was very smooth and the experience was good.

Famen Temple, the ancestor of Guanzhong pagoda temples, was founded in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and flourished in the Tang Dynasty after the Western Wei and Northern Zhou Dynasties. It is famous at home and abroad for preserving the world&#39;s only Sakyamuni Buddha&#39;s finger relic.
After a thousand years of silence, Famen Temple once again shocked the world with the excavation of the underground palace. The excavation of the underground palace of Famen Temple is one of the &quot;Top Ten Archaeological Excavations in China&quot; in New China. More than 2,400 rare treasures were unearthed. They are all masterpieces of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. They are exquisite and show the national strength of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.
Years caress, memories are like silk, autumn scenery triggers sadness and relief, a rain makes the autumn wind a little cool, fallen leaves and autumn rain interweave into dreams, and every drop of rain tells the story of Famen, just waiting for you to listen.

【Fun】The Famen Temple scenic area is really big. If you take a car (30 yuan/person), if you are young, it is recommended not to buy a ticket when entering. After the tour, if you can&#39;t walk anymore, you can buy a one-way ticket to get off, otherwise the speed is too fast and you can&#39;t see anything.
If you don&#39;t hire a tour guide to such a scenic spot, then rent an interpreter, otherwise it&#39;s really boring (except for Buddhists).
The four gates of the scenic area are magnificent. There are places to stay and eat near the third gate. I don&#39;t know the price of accommodation. As for eating, it is not recommended to eat here. It&#39;s too expensive. We booked tickets online, which is too troublesome. There is a vegetarian restaurant in the tower where the relics are displayed, similar to the temple dining hall. Although it is very simple, the taste is very good, and the price is not high. It is guaranteed to be full and not wasteful. I heard that this one is the scenic spot&#39;s own, and the one below is contracted.
(Everyone understands why there are fewer recommendations)
The Buddha&#39;s Light Avenue is too long. If you don&#39;t look carefully, there are small landscapes on both sides. If you only see ten big Buddhas, it will be boring.
Also, please do not buy too much incense, as there are almost no incense burners in the scenic area (I heard that they were removed due to commercial management. I want to say, &quot;Is this also considered commercialization?&quot; Why doesn&#39;t anyone check our southern scenic areas?)
When you arrive at the Heshi Pagoda, you can see the relics (the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, otherwise the relics will not be exhibited). After seeing the relics, if you want to go up the tower, there are elevators in the toilets on both sides. If you are not tired, you can also take the stairs.
On the west side of the first floor of the Heshi Pagoda is the Famen performance. We went to see it. It was really good, but the premise is that you need to know a little about Famen Temple and have enough physical strength to stand for more than an hour. On the east side is the vegetarian restaurant. The restaurant is very large and there are many people eating (talking to the staff, there are especially many people during holidays, and fewer people in winter). The food is delicious, especially the black pickled vegetables they sell, which are 10 yuan a bottle. They are very delicious and a little expensive. After all, it is a scenic spot. You can add unlimited meals (I ate two bowls of rice and three bowls of vegetables, haha, and didn&#39;t eat at night).
After the vegetarian meal, you can go to the temple and museum. The temple is small, and there is nothing to see except the underground palace. It is similar. You should take a good look at the museum. Every piece is a treasure and you are very proud of it. (A reminder, don&#39;t buy anything there casually, be careful of being cheated)
After a day&#39;s trip, I feel that many things in Journey to the West are wrong. Buddhism was really prosperous during the Tang Dynasty.
If I have the opportunity, I hope to come again and take a good look at the museum.
