TravelLinhai Prefecture City, looking for Chinese red

Set a theme 'Finding the Chinese Red for the New Year'. It was gloomy and raining, I arrived early in the morning at the Yingshan Gate of Taizhou Prefecture City. The square in front of Weng City was setting up a red New Year's charity event. The city gate was pasted with a big 'Xi', the streets and alleys were decorated with red ribbons, and most of the shops were decorated with traditional blessings. Inside the Yingshan Gate, at the foot of the towel mountain, the chanting of scriptures and Sanskrit sounds were heard. Following the sound, the horizontal layout of the mountain gate building was atmospheric, showing the style of the Tang Dynasty. The three words 'Longxing Temple' came into view. The temple space is expansive, the heaven and earth are harmonious, and it is where the heart belongs. Longxing Temple: It was first built in the first year of Shenlong (705 AD), originally named 'Shenlong Temple'. It is now being rebuilt, and behind the Daxiong Treasure Hall is the Tang Dynasty Thousand Buddha Pagoda. Longxing Temple once promoted the Tiantai sect of Buddhism, and Master Jianzhen once lived here. The high monk Si Tuo of Longxing Temple also followed Master Jianzhen 'through six crossings, over twelve years'. As the Jia Chen Dragon Year is approaching, I happened to encounter the ancient Shenlong Temple here, wishing good luck and blessings. 🧧 Ziyang Street: The street name is derived from Ziyang Zhenren Zhang Boudan, the first ancestor of the southern sect of Taoism, who realized the truth. The street is very long, spanning several streets from north to south. The scale and texture of the streets and alleys are preserved, most of them are shops in front and residences in the back, there are businesses, and there are also original residents left behind, full of life. The incoming shops are innovative and novel. The traditional shops have old tastes and old memories. 🌺The plum blossoms at the foot of the towel mountain are blooming.
