What travelers say:

20220706 In the evening: 1. "Zhengguo Temple" is located in the Mianshan Scenic Area. Mianshan is the birthplace of cold food and Qingming. The bus is directly accessible. It is also very good to park by car. If you take the train, it is the closest to "Lingshi East Station". The train station takes a taxi to the scenic spot for about 40 yuan. I like to hike, choose to spend 1.5 hours walking 6.5 kilometers from the train station to the scenic spot, crossing farmland, villages and children's military training bases halfway, encountering happy events in the village, experiencing the local customs. Arriving at the scenic spot, there is a golden statue flying into the air in front of the visitor center. Take a sightseeing bus (including 160 yuan tickets, unlimited times by car) crawl along the circling mountain road, about 15 minutes to the first attraction "Longtou Temple", here is one of the only 3 supermarkets in the scenic spot, so you have to bring enough water, the scenic price is 250% of the normal price, But the supermarket is privately contracted and can bargain. 2. "Zhengguo Temple" is above Yunfeng Temple. From Yunfeng Temple to the west, you can pass the "Zhi" shape of "Tongtianyun" (also known as "Yunfeng Plank Road"), which is an iconic photo spot in Mianshan. Walking on the top and watching the legs of the mountain are soft) walk, but you can also take the elevator directly from the Zhengguo Temple Sightseeing Station under the mountain. One way, $15. On the top of the mountain, you can overlook the scenery of the whole Mianshan Mountain from a very high perspective. There are fewer humanistic landscapes and many mosquitoes. You can walk and worship through a small temple (the temple gate has been closed at night, but it is only a false cover, which can basically be pushed away). After arriving at the "Lingying Tower", you can pass through the "Quanshen" (There is a trail at the "Longqing Monument" next to the "Guanyin Temple"). Easy to leak, there are "cultivation holes" and spring eyes, the spring eyes are covered with wooden lids), "the upper courtyard" (the golden Buddha statue hanging from the high cliff), "Zhengguo Temple" (there are several sacred monks inside the skeleton, the golden dragon and Buddha wall sculptures outside the temple are very beautiful) and other important landscapes. It was dark when it arrived at the Lingying Tower. The first floor of the tower was four Buddha statues backed together, facing the four doors of the southeast and northwest. It was dark and there was no light. It was very cautious, but the heart had Buddha ideas and was not afraid. The first floor is the town tower treasure gifted by Tang Taizong "empty Wang Lingyan Tower", surrounded by the walls are Tian Zhichao's 8 pieces of relief used during practice, guarded by four doors. The second to the 8th floors are the stories of Tian Zhichao's life "the reincarnation of the empty king Buddha", "Zhichao Buddha", "defancheng Tao", "living Buddha manifesting spirit", "selection of land Mianshan", "chuangju Zen Forest", "Taizong Amnesty". The two wooden ladders on each floor are very steep, and the elderly have to be careful. There are cultural relics or replicas of them in the aisle. The tower has been destroyed and rebuilt several times in history, most recently by the Japanese in 1940. It was already 20:30 when I left the tower. The elevator in Zhengguo Temple was off work at night. I could only walk down the mountain from the west side of the elevator under the moonlight. The mobile phone turned on the flashlight and the music was emboldened. There were mosquitoes that followed me for a few kilometers. Follow the main road of Yunfeng Temple to the supermarket next to the Temple Bottom Sightseeing Station (one of the 3 supermarkets in Mianshanli, the price is more expensive but can be bargained, the supermarket is privately contracted) for dinner, noodles, tea eggs and drinks a total of 28 yuan after the bargain 23 yuan.
