Luzhou Lantian witnesses the 'fairyland at your doorstep'! The hydrangea sea at Jinlong Temple awaits your exploration
As a child, I often went to fetch water at Jinlong Temple, which has now transformed into a 'popular' scenic spot right at our doorstep! Last night, I went for a night stroll with my family, and the hydrangeas that covered the mountains made me feel as if I was in a fairyland, and I couldn't help but exclaim: Is this really the same mountain I used to visit as a child?
Speaking of which, before going up the mountain last night, my sister's comment 'Is there any suosuo...' left me baffled. What? What's suosuo? It turns out my mother and sister couldn't stop laughing and told me that 'suosuo' means snake! It turns out our hometown has such a down-to-earth term, even my 11-year-old niece knows better than me!
The road up the mountain has its own charm. Go up from the right, come down from the left, circling around the mountain without retracing your steps. Going up on the right, the dragon's head is in sight; passing by the 'Zizai Coffee House', a cup of aromatic coffee while overlooking the beautiful scenery at the foot of the mountain is enough for a lifetime!
And speaking of the hydrangeas, they are breathtakingly beautiful! It is said that this sea of flowers was originally the masterpiece of a pilgrim, and now it has become a spectacular sight. As a child fetching water, who would have thought that this mountain would undergo such a dramatic change?
Speaking of the history of Jinlong Temple, it is truly moving. As a child fetching water, I often heard the adults talk about the story of the abbot surnamed Li and how he was killed by bandits. And in the year of my college entrance exam, I also came here to pray for success, and after getting into university, I returned to give thanks. Looking back now, it feels like a lifetime ago.
Friends, if you also want to explore Jinlong Temple, consider coming in the evening, and remember to bring an umbrella! As for why, hehe, you'll know when you get here! Come join us and experience this 'fairyland at your doorstep' together!
