草庵是全世界仅存的摩尼教遗址,是全国重点文物保护单位,世界文化遗产,体现了宋元时期泉州的多文化融合,现在仅有摩尼光佛石刻,但也非常珍贵,金庸老先生的明教就源于摩尼教,是有出处的,他也来过此处,交通不太方便,公交站在山下有一公里多远,但也就是因为这样,才能够让你体会这里漫步的清幽。
The Mingism in Jin Yong's writing is true. It takes a special taxi to visit, and the tour is not long but it is meaningful. As the only temple dedicated to the Mani teaching, the historical and cultural value is far greater than the value of the tour. Quanzhou Shenyi does have a deep cultural heritage, and there is a path up the mountain behind. You can see the words of persuasion. I fantasize about the six gates in Jinyong's novels. Hehe ③ by electricity, the small forest at the foot of the mountain is very leisurely, it is a good place to camp.
The Mani Temple is a Mani Relic site. Mani Religion is actually worshipping fire. The Mani statue in the Mani Temple is also the only surviving Mani statue in the world. There is a path up the mountain after the temple. Because of time, we gave up a few steps. There is also a Buddhist monastery next to it, where Li Shutong once lived. Personally, if you have more time in Quanzhou, you can go and see it. If you are nervous, you can give up.
This is the Ming Dynasty site in Jin Yong's novel. There is a unique Mani Light Buddha in the world. The temple is very small. There is a young nun stationed. There are not many tourists here. When we arrived, only two young people were chatting with the nun. The small temple is not much incense. If you go, you can add a pillar of incense to add popularity.
The place is not big, it will be finished in a while. . .
A very famous temple, worth experiencing. It is unique. Religious culture and charm.
