Guguanyinchan Temple

In Xi'an, where the historical charm is strong, there are many famous ancient temples under the Zhongnan Mountain. Although Guanyin Temple has been washed and refined by the years, it is originally an unknown place among many monuments. Its uniqueness is that the ancient tree in between is the ginkgo tree that has been more than 1400 years. This golden ancient tree, not decayed because of the passage of years, but gave off a more quiet vitality, once in social media hot circle. Because the temple of force majeure has been closed, the twilight ginkgo leaves are not golden enough, but fortunately it is not easy to see. This year's ginkgo ancient tree will be yellow and dazzling, and it will be more beautiful without the interruption of tourists.

The ancient Guanyin Temple is located in the suburbs of Xi'an, at the foot of Qinling Mountain. One of the thousand-year-old temples in Zhongnan Mountain. The temple is quiet and solemn and the scenery is pleasant. There is an ancient ginkgo in the backyard for more than 1400 years, planted by Li Shimin in Tang Taizong. The branches are lush and lush, and the white fruits are covered with branches. The bamboo shoots are beautiful.

Fortunately, I swiped the system to grab two tickets every day before I came to Xi'an [smiling] [Victory] A total of only 14 days to watch the ancient ginkgo trees, because the leaves are not yellow or have been settled too early and too late [spit tongue] In fact, if it is not a weekend, you can usually wait on the side ⌛️ The system will put some tickets at any time to let the scene Visitors can also wish [hands together] [rose] monastery and ginkgo are beautiful, and there is a Buddha's edge 🐱 who has been beside the Buddha statue [smiling face] but the security guard has been roaring to let everyone not block the way, to pull over the sound of some destruction of the picture [laughs and tears]

There is no comment on such a beautiful place, I said it. 1. It is quite far from Xi'an city. If you go, you have to estimate the time. I went to the subway from the northern suburbs for three and a half hours. 2. The temple is free, but from this year, you need to make an appointment from the WeChat public account. You need to scan the QR code for tree viewing to enter. (Note: Go as early as possible, although the reservation interface is half an hour for a period, but in fact, as long as it is any time of the day's appointment, you can enter, and you may not enter if you are late.) 3. There are a lot of people, the staff is very good, but it still feels like catching ducks - I also went to work during the middle of the week, and the tree-watching team was at least 300 people. Go psychologically prepared. 4. The most beautiful time should be that the leaves are yellow, the fallen leaves are covered with grass, but the branches will not appear bright (full screen golden). This time is about10-15 days after the appointment is started every year. This year is this week. Friends who want to go should hurry up. The leaves are not so good after falling. 5. There are also many monks practicing in the temple, try not to make loud noises and litter garbage. I don't know if so many tourists are lucky or evil in their view. 6.10-12 Month is the viewing period, other times are a quiet temple. The buildings themselves are quite elegant. After enjoying the trees, you may wish to walk around, and there are also good scenery. 7. Outside the temple is a small town. After the temple fire, many nearby villagers set up stalls outside the temple to sell some gadgets. There are also many specialty restaurants (the temple seems to provide self-service fast food, and it is not clear the specific situation). Self-driving friends can leisurely finish their meal and then leave. 8. On the tree viewing platform, I saw many tourists have been taking pictures from beginning to end. There are more mobile phones looking at the mobile phone screen than watching ginkgo. Finally, I want to suggest that everyone, no matter how many photos are taken, it is not as good as professional photographers. I searched the ancient Guanyin Temple ginkgo on the Internet, and many beautiful pictures came out. And its beauty, shocking, amazing, only you can feel it when you visit the scene. So, with ginkgo, one or two shadows, take a few pictures of the circle of friends, the rest of the time, feel the gifts brought by nature!

Founded in the Tang Zhenguan year (628 AD), it is one of the thousand-year-old temples in the south of the mountain. The ancient temple has an ancient spring at a glance, clear and sweet, not rest all year round, no matter the sunny day and rain, the spring water does not rise or fall, the water level will never change, there is a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree in the spring, the spring soaking roots, the tree raising spring, the aura of the heavens and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, known as the "Guanyin Shenquan Shenshu". Every year in early November, the leaves start to turn yellow, and the ginkgo leaves start to fall in mid-November. The best viewing period is in November 15-25. The golden ginkgo trees and ginkgo leaves on the ground are dyed golden by the autumn wind. It is really beautiful.

The scenery is a good view, but the tranquility of the ancient temple has been broken by the crowd of tourists. When I went there on the weekend, there were too many people. I queued up for a few hundred meters. I immediately gave up to visit when I saw the shape, but I just looked at the millennium ginkgo from afar. When I went, it was golden in ginkgo leaves, beautiful and atmospheric.
