Grand Temple of Mount Heng

After 40 minutes of shopping, the main thing is to ask God to worship Buddha. Many people come to burn incense. I heard that only on the first day of the New Year, there is a saying that there is a head incense. In addition to Buddhism, it is Taoism in the east of the temple. It is very quiet and worth seeing.

Nanyue Temple is located opposite Nanyue Hengshan as a holy place of incense. The temple is particularly large in size, and there are various gods in it. Those who ask for peace and study can go.

I have been to Xiyue Temple and Dongyue Temple. This time I passed Nanyue Hengshan and worshiped Nanyue Temple. Compared with the South Temple, the temple of the South Temple has a lot more incense than the East of the West. There are incense shops everywhere, and the temple is full of fragrant pilgrims who kneel incense. I just hurried over, touched the copper money clockwise in front of the temple axis stage, and then touched the red luck at the bottom of the stage, and then touched the 72 peaks of Jinshan Yinshan, and finally touched the turtle from the head to the turtle tail.

Convenient, fast, clean and hygienic, there are no people in Hengshan at this time, relax and climb the mountain, it is really comfortable, the scenic spot is also very good as a whole, there is a chance to bring family and friends to come, a place worth remembering

Not bad, it’s pretty, that is, the shuttle bus does not report the station. I don’t know what station on the way to go down the mountain. I completely missed the station in the middle. It is recommended to report the station in advance, otherwise I really don’t know where it is.

The scenic spot is attentive, and tourists visit in order. At 3 pm, there are wonderful programs performed by Hengyang City Song and Dance Troupe. The plum blossoms in the garden have a faint fragrance from the side, which is a good place for leisure.
