Accommodation needs to add the person in charge of the hotel in advance 🛰️, 💰 800 in a single-family week, and 💰 1300 on weekends (according to the scheduled time to decide 💰, so it must be decided at least a week in advance to be cost-effective).

The Luyeyuan is clean and tidy, with green grass, in stark contrast to the mess by the Ganges River. The most striking is the Answer Kefota. The 40-meter-high stupa is allegedly built by King Ashoka for more than 2,200 years. The pagoda is double-layered cylindrical, the lower layer is turquoise, the upper layer is slightly smaller, brown red, giving a rough and strong overall view, the tower around the body of the 12th century Muslim invasion and burning left black traces. Xuanxuan visited here more than 1300 years ago, and the gold-decorated towers and fine houses he described in "Datang Xiyu Ji" can only try to imagine through the remains of a brick wall foundation in front of him; The Ashoka stone pillar, which was built in front of the stone pillar, more than 70 feet high, has already broken, leaving only the remnants. Fortunately, the pillars of the four-faced lion are still there, and they are preserved in the Luyeyuan Archaeological Museum.

Buddhism originated in ancient India, but in today's India, Buddhism has not nearly died. Although the guide's explanation was because Buddhists were obedient, it was not suitable for India, which was invading by foreign nations, and because the penetration of medieval black magic changed the original doctrine of Buddhism "not killing", it was gradually rejected by the people and the ruling class. But Luyeyuan has a very strong position in Buddhism. The first time Buddha opened the altar after becoming a Buddha, it was here. Now this scenic spot is divided into three parts, one is a Sri Lankan temple, there are murals of Buddha's life, and you need to take off your shoes when you enter it. One is the Ruins Park, with the Answer Kefota and the Asok pillar site. One is the museum, where the pillar of Asok pillar is located.

Luyeyuan - the place where the Buddha first talked about scriptures. Here Sakyamuni taught Buddhism for the first time, and Buddhist monks were established here. In the 3rd century, Luyeyuan became an important art center. Luyeyuan is one of the four sacred places of Buddhism in ancient India.

Named for a legend that used to be beautiful, the story of a Buck who devoted himself to the king's rescue. But the more famous is that Tang Sanzang came here to collect sutras and the birthplace of Buddha. Inby is a sacred place of Buddhism. The most conspicuous part of Luyeyuan Park is the Dameikefa Pagoda, which has a general appearance, but the whole environment is well preserved. Although it is located in the suburbs, it is still worth seeing.

It is not the scenery, but the Buddha's imprint, a place of faith.
