Tiantong Temple is located at the foot of Taibai Mountain, 26 kilometers away from Ningbo. Its history can be traced back to the Jin Dynasty and is one of the famous ancient temples in Ningbo. There are not many tourists and pilgrims here, and monks are often seen walking or meditating in the temple. Even if you don't believe in Buddhism, it's a good experience to feel the religious atmosphere and breathe the fresh air. Different from other monasteries, Tiantong Temple has three mountain gates. If you go up the mountain along the tree-lined path, you will pass Fuhu Pavilion, Gushan Gate and Jingqian Pavilion in turn. You can see the Ten Thousand Buddhas Pagoda on the mountain from a distance. Because the temple is next to Tiantong National Forest Park, the scenery along the way is very good, and the eyes are full of green. Going further, walking through the seven stone pagodas of the Seven Pagoda Garden, you will arrive at Wangong Pond. The two ponds here were originally released ponds, and now there are many small turtles released in one pond. The four characters "Southeast Buddhist Country" are written on the wall opposite the Wangong Pond. The surrounding trees and temple buildings are very beautifully reflected in the pond water, attracting many tourists to take pictures here. There are many pigeons in the square next to them, robbing the feed thrown by tourists. Entering the temple and walking up the mountain, the main buildings on the central axis are the Buddha Hall, the Dharma Hall (Sutra Building), and the Luohan Hall. No sun, no wet roads in rainy days.” Today, the oldest buildings in the temple are the Buddha Hall and Abbot Hall rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty, which are simple and solemn. The gilded bronze statue of the pharmacist bestowed by Emperor Shunzhi is enshrined in the Dharma Hall on the west side. Not to be missed is the Arhat Hall on the north side. The stone carvings of the 18 Arhats inside are very exquisite, and the characters are naturally mature and charming. Climb to the higher Yingzhen Pavilion, where you can overlook the whole view of the temple and the surrounding mountain scenery, with a very wide field of vision. There are also many monuments around the pavilion, mostly erected by Japanese Buddhist groups and Buddhists, where many pilgrims and tourists rest, enjoy the scenery and take pictures. Go down the mountain and return to Zhaobi, the "Southeast Buddhist Country", and go left from the path beside the Zhaobi. Not far away is the Thousand Buddha Pagoda. There is a sign near the pagoda that reads "Gu Tiantong". Going down the road and walking through a relatively deserted path, you can come to Gu Tiantong in the depths of the bamboo forest. The more conventional itinerary is, after visiting Tiantong Temple in the morning, take a break at noon, continue to Tiantong National Forest Park to climb the mountain in the afternoon, and then return to Ningbo city by car.

The tall pine trees are lined up on both sides to welcome the four-party faithful. Tiantong Temple is at the end of the pine tree honor guard, and Anlu is peaceful. In the summer, there are many winds in the temple, which is surprising. The temple’s Chinese food is rich, but unfortunately, I have a lot of breakfast and eat late. I hope Zhaixing sighs, but I am hungry for a few bowls of mung bean soup. In particular, the mosquitoes in the temple are poisonous enough, two packs are swollen and large, almost 3 days, one of them is 8cm long, 4cm wide, and the other has the whole elbow pad high.

As a long-standing ancient temple, it is now equipped with Tiantong Temple Scenic Area, and there is no charge. These are all commendable! But the tips for visiting the scenic spot in the hot summer are not enough, so I have to write a guide for your reference. 1: The parking lot is too far from the entrance of the scenic spot, and the entrance is also some distance from the tree-lined trail. These are not any shades. Therefore, you must have a sun hat to play in summer. 2: The shuttle bus in the scenic spot is a pit. 15 yuan per person is only sent to the blessing square. It takes a while to get to Tiantong Temple. This road is better to walk with less sun (Fortunately, before going there, there were local friends in Ningbo reminded that there was no pit) ,3: The directions of the thousand Buddha tower are unclear and easy to miss. You should go out of the temple and go around the release pool. Go around the right side of the release pool and then go to the right rear to see the entrance of the thousand Buddha tower. The thousand Buddha tower is the real monument. If you come to the scenic spot to miss the thousand Buddha tower, it is white. In addition to these points, the whole scenic spot is good. Although Tiantong Temple is rebuilt, it has been restored well. The commercial taste is not strong. Please incense is also voluntary. If you believe in Buddha, please pray for three incense. In addition, the scenery along the way is very beautiful. Summer can also taste the taste. The Thousand Buddhas must go to ~ Far and Close View have different tastes! Time two and a half ~ Three hours
Tiantong Temple is the first stop of our trip to Ningbo. From Ningbo Station, take Metro Line 2 to Gulou and transfer Line 1 to Baozhuang Station. Transfer from Ningbo Station to bus No. 162. Warm sun, breeze, ancient temple. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas seem to have given Tiantong Temple a beautiful junction, isolating all the disturbances of the secular world, so that his whereabouts are so pure and so lingering. It is absolutely worth visiting one of the few ancient temples with little commercial flavor. Good impression! I'll go again if I have a chance.
