Xiamen Must-Visit! Comprehensive Guide to Nanputuo Temple

Visiting Nanputuo on a rainy day feels so atmospheric! 🌧️ 📍Address: No. 515 Siming South Road, Siming District, Xiamen ⏰Opening Hours: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM 🎫Admission: Free Nanputuo Temple, a landmark building in Xiamen, is bustling with incense offerings! 🔥 The Mahavira Hall is solemn and majestic, with a uniquely distinctive architectural style that blends traditional Minnan features with modern elements~ I absolutely love the calligraphy corridor here 📜 Famous calligraphy inscriptions are everywhere on the mountain, creating a rich cultural atmosphere! You can also see the amazing coexistence of dragon sculptures and modern architecture 🐉 What impressed me the most: ✨The golden splendor of the Great Compassion Hall ✨The exquisite gilding on the Thousand-Hand Guanyin statue ✨The pink water lilies by the releasing pond are super photogenic ✨The back mountain offers a panoramic view of Xiamen University I recommend walking straight to Xiamen University campus for a check-in after visiting Nanputuo! 📸Photo tips: 1. The steps in front of the Mahavira Hall create a great sense of depth 2. The red bridge over the releasing pond is very photogenic 3. Rainy days enhance the mysterious vibe of the ancient temple
