What travelers say:

Traveling to Japan, this station came to Kyoto, to Busan for a day, we rented a bicycle in Busan, stepped on the car to shuttle to various attractions, the location of Dajue Temple is a bit biased, we went to Busan Park, then planned to go to Dajue Temple, along the way have not seen the sign, It all depends on navigation to lead the way, plus asking passers-by, before going to the destination, passing through residential areas on the way, there are schools, community activity areas, etc., from the crowded tourist center to a relatively remote place, almost gave up. Dajue Temple is the Daben Mountain of the old Yue Royal Palace. This attraction is separated by two parts. There is no charge at the gate of Dajue Temple. It is free to visit, but you need to pay for it separately. There should be a specified time. I didn't visit the place that day. Seeing that there is always a special person in the courtyard to take care of the beautification of the environment, the trees are carefully cut, there is a cherry blossom path outside the monastery, and the two ends are full of pink cherry blossoms. Going inside is the garden. In the early days of Ping An, this is the new room and departure palace when the emperor and queen Yulin married, which is the predecessor of Dajue Temple. The lake in the garden is the oldest garden pool in Japan. There are also attractions in the garden, the palace, the palace of the palace, the five halls, the temple of the heart, the gate of the heart, the pagoda of the heart, etc. There are many cherry blossom trees in the garden. Although they are not in pieces, the cherry blossoms are very bright. There are snow white and pink. Different kinds of cherry blossoms are competing to open. Unfortunately, an ancient cherry tree by the lake was knocked down by the typhoon last year and has not had time to move away. There are squatting in the lake, there are birds flying low, and there are few tourists. Because this garden needs to be charged to enter, and the location is very biased, the tour group does not come here, so it is particularly quiet.
