Visit Guiyuan Temple during the New Year and start a lucky new year~

Guiyuan Temple in Wuhan was built by Master Baiguang in the fifteenth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1658 AD). It covers an area of 153 acres, with more than 200 halls and more than 7,000 volumes of various Buddhist scriptures. Guiyuan Temple belongs to one of the five families and seven sects of Buddhism Zen, so it is called Guiyuan Zen Temple. Take the city's subway line 6 to Zhongjiacun Station, exit B, and walk about 800 to reach. The temple is full of ancient trees, exquisite and beautiful, divided into two major parts. The front Buddhist hall mainly includes the Hall of Heavenly Kings, the Great Hall of Treasure, the Hall of Five Hundred Arhats, and the Scripture Tower; the back mainly includes the statue of Guanyin and the Yuantong Pavilion. Not only can you worship Buddha and draw lots, but it is also a good place for family leisure~ It is worth mentioning that there is a popular coffee shop in the temple. When you are tired, you can order a cup of blessing latte and start your good luck. You can also draw lots, ask the clerk to help interpret the lots, and wish the new year, wealth and health!
