I didn't expect to learn a little bit of Photoshop at work, and it would be useful after retirement. Every time I come back from a trip, facing a large number of photos, I am reluctant to delete any of them, so I use photoshop to stitch them together, two or three, and at most six photos can be put together. The number of photos released has been greatly reduced, and the text descriptions are enlarged and put together with the entities, which is more intuitive and clear.

In the early morning, take the bus to "Longxing Temple" at the square of Zhengding Station, and take the bus 131 and 135 directly.

The reason why I chose to stay in a hotel next to Zhengding Station is for the convenience of travel. My plan is to take the train to Shijiazhuang after visiting the scenic spots in Zhengding County.

"Longxing Temple" is worthy of rich and colorful description

Longxing Temple, also known as the Great Buddha Temple, is called "Big Buddha Temple" by the locals.

"Longxing Temple" has no mountain gate, which is rare

"Longxing Temple" has the most of the six major temples, which will be presented one by one later

The light in the Mani Hall is dim. If you don’t look carefully, you will not know that there are murals on the wall, and they are so colorful.

When I was doing the strategy, I thought the so-called "Inverted Avalokitesvara" had its head upside down and its feet upside down. In fact, it is because Avalokitesvara statues usually sit facing south, but this Avalokitesvara sits facing north, so it is called "Avalokitesvara sitting upside down, I take it for granted."

There are also a few murals that are really too dark, and they are severely worn, so they can't see the picture

What is "Turn Wheel Tibet"?

It is introduced that this wheel collection is a "wooden scripture cabinet". Since it is a "cabinet", shouldn't there be a "door" around it?

There is a very beautiful statue of Bodhisattva in "Ci Shi Pavilion"

This building is the most magnificent, originally the "Great Compassion Pavilion"

"Great Compassion Pavilion" enshrines "Avalokitesvara with Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes". Each arm holds the sun and the moon, the clean bottle, the pagoda, the King Kong, the sword, etc. Unfortunately, the 40 pairs of copper arms on both sides have been destroyed and have been replaced with wood. Only the front chest arms are original cast.

The big Buddha referred to in "Big Buddha Temple" refers to it.

This Buddha statue is truly exquisite and breathtaking

Summary: As a famous temple in Heshuo, Longxing Temple has gone through thousands of years. It is one of the temple buildings with the most existing Song Dynasty buildings, statues and stone carvings in China. It is recommended to go in and have a look at each building, maybe there will be surprises.

"Longxing Temple" can walk to "Rongguo Mansion", this time it is really not far, and the walking environment is very good.

Rong Guo Mansion

In 1983, CCTV was planning to shoot the TV series "Dream of Red Mansions" and sought local governments to build a temporary location base for "Rongguo Mansion". The Zhengding County Party Committee and the county government set up a special agency to prepare for the establishment of "Rongguo Mansion", and built "Rongguo Mansion".

My aunt followed other groups to listen to the "explaining", I was deaf, so I watched it by myself

I will mark the name immediately after taking the photo next time, so as not to be unable to take the seat.

What other boudoirs of Mrs. Wang, Aunt Zhao, Second Sister You and others were not photographed.

In ancient times, there was a clear hierarchy and an orderly hierarchy. Everyone in the Rongguo Mansion had to kowtow when they saw the concubine Yuan.

turned to an old street

We didn't finish eating, so we packed up. After dinner, I was going to walk to see the four towers I had seen on the city wall, as well as the ancient city wall in the sun.

I originally wanted to visit Zhao Yunmiao, because my son’s favorite character from the Three Kingdoms is Zhao Yunchang, but he couldn’t find it, and he didn’t bother to spend time and energy looking for it. The locals said it was newly built.

Come to the first tower first

Tianning Temple Lingxiao Pagoda

As I walked and asked, I saw a very impressive tower.

Yanghe Building

It turned out to be "Yanghe Building", which was not in my plan, so why not go in and have a look.

the sky is getting dark

move on

Hua Pagoda of Guanghui Temple

It's getting late, we want to climb up the city wall before dark, to see the city wall during the day and the world outside the city wall

Well, I watched the night scene the night before, we are both sleepy and tired, let's go back.

I decided to re-arrange the itinerary and decided to continue to stay in Zhengding tonight, still in that hotel, and take the bus directly to Shijiazhuang tomorrow. I went to Shijiazhuang mainly to visit the "Hebei Museum". China Eastern Airlines' "Fly as You Want on Weekend" is no longer available. I took the train back to Hangzhou. I originally wanted to go to Taiyuan, but I had an appointment to see a doctor and I didn't have time to go.

I finally had this concept: Zhengding is a county under Shijiazhuang, just like our Tonglu in Hangzhou. The bus from the ancient city wall to the train station is hard to find, so we had to take a taxi. The taxi driver told us that we should live here, and there is a direct bus to the "Hebei Museum".

Zhengding is a good place. The taxi driver said that there was Zhengding first and then Shijiazhuang, and he felt a little bit aggrieved. Yes, it turned out that Baoding was the provincial capital of Hebei first, then Zhengding was determined to be the provincial capital of Hebei, and finally became Shijiazhuang. This also shows that history is constantly changing! ! !

I didn't expect that there are so many cultural relics and historic sites in Zhengding, so worth tasting, which disrupted my plan, but it was definitely worthwhile.
