    "The solemnity and grandeur of the temple, the exquisiteness and elegance of the pavilions and water rafts are perfectly integrated. Walking around, watching quietly, intoxicated with the beauty of Chinese architectural design and courtyard art. Very suitable for taking pictures. Various performances and activities are endless, making this attraction full of fun. Take the children to see the excitement, experience the feeling of dreaming back to Datang, National Day holiday, crowds, too crowded. Not recommended. The large performance in front of Mingdemen Square has seats one hour in advance, but the performance is only ten minutes, plus it is not particularly outstanding visual and audio-visual effect, so that the experience is not particularly good. The parking place is very far away, we were guided to Fuxiling parking, playing late to go a long time to get the car, very tired."
