Sichuan Mianyang | The serene and auspicious White Pagoda and Reclining Buddha at Luohan Temple

🏮 During the Spring Festival period, revisiting Luohan Temple in Mianyang is terrifyingly popular 😱 Luohan Temple stands vertically on the mountain peak, and the stone stairs leading up are a bit tiring 🦵; 1⃣️ Hundreds of lifelike Arhats, in a myriad of postures; 2⃣️ A forest of white stupa, quiet and solemn; 3⃣️ The reclining Buddha Shakyamuni, all in white, with a graceful posture. Mianyang Luohan Temple is closely connected to Shengshui Temple, located at the southern end of Tazi Mountain on the right bank of the Fujiang River ⛰️. It not only has a superior geographical location, adjacent to the Baocheng Railway 🛤️ and Mianjiang Expressway 🛣️, but also has a long history 🕒 and profound cultural heritage. 1⃣️ Inside the temple, Arhats stand in rows, with hundreds of resplendent Arhat statues 🗿, each with a different form, lifelike, some with eyes closed in contemplation, some holding scriptures, smiling, dignified and sacred. 2⃣️ The most captivating is the forest of white stupas 🎈, walking among them, one feels the inner peace and tranquility. The stupa is one of the important buildings of the temple, carrying the history and culture of the temple, as well as the faith and hope of the believers 📿 3⃣️ And the most anticipated is the white reclining Buddha, lying there quietly, watching people come and go, his face still serene, transcending time and the cycle of life and death, commanding respect 🙏🏻 💚 Travel Tips 💚 👉🏻 The temple does not charge an entrance fee 🆓, free to visit, can be reached by passing through Shengshui Temple 🐾, the temple is gradually being built, with some parts still under renovation.
