A successful 5A scenic area worth visiting!

Guoqing Temple, as the ancestral temple of the Japanese Buddhist Tendai sect, is not only attractive for its profound religious heritage, but also for its tranquility and serenity. The vegetarian meal in the temple costs only CNY 2, and is grown by the monks themselves, conveying the Zen spirit of simplicity and self-sufficiency. As you enter the temple, you will see farmland, the Sui Pagoda, the Sui Plum, the bronze furnace from the Qianlong period, the authentic "Goose" character by Wang Xizhi, the thousand-year-old Fenggan Bridge, the single-arch stone bridge, and the "Ancient Temple of the Sui Dynasty" screen wall. Each of these exudes a sense of history, making you afraid to speak loudly for fear of disturbing the peace. To get to Guoqing Temple, you can take a high-speed train to Tiantai Mountain Station. In addition, you can plan a one-day tour: Tiantai Mountain Station - Guoqing Temple (one of the four great temples in China, a 5A scenic area with free admission) - Tongbai Palace (the ancestral temple of the Southern Taoist sect) - Tongxuan Temple (a Southern Song Dynasty building, a Zen courtyard) - Tiantai Mountain Waterfall - Tiantai County (for dining). Guoqing Temple is hidden in the mountains, quiet and peaceful, not for wishing, but for walking around, you will be deeply healed. Tongbai Palace is like a fairy's residence, and Tongxuan Temple is so beautiful that it is a must-see attraction.
