Ancient temples, listening to millions of compassion

How many Buddhist holy places are there in Xuzhou? Baolian Temple is definitely on the list.

Although it is a religious place, this does not mean that ordinary tourists cannot enter, on the contrary, it is very accommodating.

Inside the Bodhi Holy Lotus Square, old people playing with their grandchildren, couples squatting by the grass jerking off their cats, children running around, all this movement is incomparably harmonious within the stillness of the Holy Lotus Square.

The deterrent of winter still exists, but the footsteps of spring are also quietly arriving. Under the broken ice on the surface of the water, floating red are leisurely koi.

The statue of the angry and round-eyed statue is tall and majestic, but it does not make people afraid, and the kind-eyed Bodhisattva makes people stop and is fascinating.

Cross the square, step up the stone steps and enter the main gate, flanked by the tea room and vegetarian meal respectively.

Many visitors are attracted to Po Lin Monastery by its vegetarian food, and the tea and snacks have a distinctive flavor.

The stone statue of the King of Heaven, in front of the tea room on the right, looking out in all directions under the blue sky and protecting the people.

The temple has eight halls, two pavilions and a courtyard, the bell tower and drum tower on both sides of the temple after the door, the overall axis of symmetric unfolding.

Devotees holding incense worship four directions, curious tourists walking aside, faith and reality of the dissonance, in the shallow dense of Buddhist incense, intertwined into the reality of the present world.

Many lanterns are hung on the two sides of the promenade, and the breeze blows, sending the serene and distant fragrance of Buddha and the breath of early spring into the arms.

Tongtiange is currently the tallest Buddhist pavilion in China and houses the statue of Tianguan Maitreya Buddha, which is 39 meters long.

The Buddha's statue is the tallest in the country and is 39 meters long. To enter Tongtian Pavilion, you need to put on the shoe covers prepared at the door and pray clockwise around the statue, and the believers are at ease in their expressions, probably having gained some abundance that cannot be satisfied materially.

The first time I arrived here, the hardships and bitterness of the present world haunted me for a long time, and unknowingly, I was already from the sun high up to the sunset, and the worries were cleaned up, and I can't say that I gained any insight, but when did I put a smile of relief on my face?
