Zhangzhou Tourism | Strolling through Qishouyan Temple, encountering a niche art Zen monastery

📍 Navigate to Qishouyan Temple, not far from the ancient city of Zhangzhou, for an easy day trip. Address: Yuanhou Village, 324 National Road, Longhai District, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province Hidden within Zhangzhou city lies a unique temple—Qishouyan Temple. Unlike ordinary temples, Qishouyan Temple is built against the mountain, with a rich Buddhist culture. Stepping onto this tranquil land, it feels like entering a Zen world isolated from the rest of society. 🌳 Environment: Qishouyan Temple ingeniously combines traditional culture with modern art, presenting a harmonious beauty. The Chinese garden design of Yuanqiu Square gives a sense of lush greenery and profound meaning. From the small balcony of the exhibition hall, one can admire the spectacular view of the Mother's Love Waterfall while enjoying the tranquility of Zen. 📚 Facilities: Although some areas are still under renovation, Qishouyan Temple has already shown a complete plan. The Bronze Culture Square, Yuanqiu Hanshan Cultural Park, Zen Culture Park, and other seven parks each have their own characteristics. You can also make tea and rest on the mid-mountain platform, sharing leisure time with friends. 💡 Tips: The Hummingbird Bookstore is not yet open, which is a bit regrettable. But it does not prevent you from feeling the harmonious coexistence of Zen and nature here.
