After binding with the system, I became a super rich and beautiful woman!

Li Zhen and the other guests took photos at Shenlong Grand Canyon and Ma Niao Waterfall.

Afterwards, they went to the final stop of their trip.

Golden Buddha Temple.

Jinfo Temple is located on the top of Jinfo Mountain.

This temple is not only a good place to pray for blessings, but also a wonderful place to experience the ancient and solemn atmosphere.

According to legend, Jinfo Temple has a long history and was built during the Tang Dynasty.

Jinfo Temple is the foremost of the four famous temples on Jinfo Mountain. It contains ancient bell towers, Heavenly King Hall, Great Buddha Hall, Ten Thousand Buddha Hall, Sutra Repository and other halls.

The environment around Jinfo Temple is also particularly good, secluded and tranquil, with an antique charm.

Furthermore, Jinfo Temple is one of the largest Tang-style architectural temples in Southwest China.

As the foremost of all temples on Jinfo Mountain, Jinfo Temple is the earliest Buddhist site in Chongqing, boasting a long history and profound cultural heritage.

In addition, the Golden Buddha Temple occupies an area of ​​square meters.

The overall architectural style is modeled after Tang Dynasty temples, with a symmetrical layout along a central axis.

The Hall of Heavenly Kings, the Great Buddha Hall, the Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas, and the Sutra Repository are arranged in sequence along the central axis. The layout of the temple is based on the Hall of Heavenly Kings as the main line, with the longitudinal line aligned vertically.

Golden Buddha Temple is not only a center of Buddhist faith, but also one of the important tourist attractions.

Visitors can follow designated tour routes to appreciate the temple's architectural style and Buddhist cultural atmosphere.

The Hall of Heavenly Kings: As the main entrance to the temple, it usually houses a statue of Maitreya Buddha.

The Mahavira Hall: It houses a statue of Shakyamuni Buddha and is the core building of the temple.

The Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas houses numerous small Buddha statues, symbolizing the widespread dissemination of Buddhism.

The Sutra Repository is a place where Buddhist scriptures are stored, and it has important religious and cultural value.

Zen Temple Hotel: Offers accommodation and meditation services, suitable for travelers seeking inner peace.

The guests followed the production crew to the main entrance of Jinfo Temple: the Hall of Heavenly Kings.

Upon entering the Hall of Heavenly Kings, everyone saw four Buddha statues.

"Wow!"

Li Zhen was slightly shocked.

To her surprise, the four large Buddha statues in front of her were actually the Four Heavenly Kings.

They were each in charge of ensuring favorable weather and abundant harvests.

The first Buddha statue: Dhritarashtra, the Eastern King of the Nation.

Holding a pipa, protecting the country (Zhishun).

The second Buddha statue: the Southern Heavenly King.

Holding a precious sword can increase one's good roots (career style).

The third Buddha statue: the Western Heavenly King Virupaksha.

With pure eyes, he observes and protects the people, his right hand entwined with a dragon, and his left hand holding a dragon pearl (a symbol of authority).

The fourth Buddha statue: Vaishravana, the Northern Heavenly King.

He protects people's property and is popularly known as the God of Wealth.

He held an umbrella in his right hand and a multi-treasure rat (representing rain) in his left.

All four Buddha statues have dignified and sacred expressions.

Upon seeing this scene, the guests immediately became somewhat serious.

No one dared to speak out of turn.

It wasn't until Director Zhang said from the side that everyone could speak quietly and also pay their respects to these Heavenly Kings and Buddha statues.

Only then did the crowd dare to whisper among themselves.

"Wow, what a sacred palace!"

"Yes, I didn't expect to be so impressed on my first visit here."

"Yes, I will definitely pay my respects to the Buddha statues here, hoping they will bless me with good weather and a bountiful harvest in the coming year, and that all my wishes will come true."

"Hehe, me too. I must pay my respects, especially to the God of Wealth. I hope he can bless me with great wealth."

"Hehe, I also want to pay my respects to the God of Wealth!"

"Pray to the God of Wealth, may you get rich, get rich, get very rich!"

“I think we shouldn’t favor one over the other; we should all pay our respects to the four Heavenly King Buddha statues.”

"Yes, yes, let's offer a sincere prayer now."

"okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

Then they lined up and walked one by one to the Buddha statues, and bowed devoutly.

Although Li Zhen hadn't intended to seek good fortune through worshipping Buddha, she felt that since she had come to this place, she should at least approach it with reverence and pay respects to a few Heavenly Kings.

Everyone took turns kneeling and worshipping the statues of the Heavenly Kings and Buddhas.

After paying their respects to the last statue of the God of Wealth, everyone left the Hall of Heavenly Kings with satisfied and light steps.

A moment later, Li Zhen and the others arrived at the Mahavira Hall.

Inside this main hall is enshrined Shakyamuni Buddha.

The Mahavira Hall is the core building of the Buddhist temple.

At the same time, the Mahavira Hall is also one of the most important halls in Buddhist temples, usually enshrining Shakyamuni Buddha.

Shakyamuni Buddha is the founder of Buddhism and is revered as "Mahavira".

According to legend, Shakyamuni Buddha's original name was Siddhartha Gautama, and he was a prince in ancient India.

After observing the suffering of life, including birth, aging, sickness, and death, he decided to renounce worldly life and cultivate himself. He eventually attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree and became the Buddha, thus founding Buddhism.

The title of Shakyamuni Buddha is "Great Hero," which means that he possesses vast wisdom and power, and is able to subdue demons such as afflictions, mental demons, death demons, and heavenly demons.

In short, he was a very powerful god or Buddha who could subdue demons and monsters.

Li Zhen didn't know what kind of being Shakyamuni Buddha was, but she knew that if mortals wanted to survive, they had to know how to be patient and respectful.

Therefore, when facing the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha, she knelt and bowed several times, just as before.

The other guests also knelt and worshipped Shakyamuni Buddha with reverence and piety.

Since the area is filled with sacred Buddha statues, Li Zhen did not take any photos here.

After admiring the sights for a while, they moved on to the next palace.

Wanfo Hall.

This palace is completely different from the two palaces in front of it.

Because many small Buddha statues are enshrined here, symbolizing the widespread dissemination of Buddhism.

These small Buddha statues are also known as: Ten Thousand Buddha Statues?

The ten thousand Buddha statues enshrined in the Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas symbolize countless Buddhas, expressing respect and reverence for the Buddhist faith.

After Li Zhen and his group entered, they all carefully examined the surrounding Buddha statues.

Upon entering the Wanfo Hall, one is greeted by a variety of Buddha statues.

There are Buddha statues with ugly faces, kind eyes, ferocious faces, and clean-cut, well-proportioned features.

There are many of these Buddha statues.

However, Li Zhen did not know exactly how many of them there were.

Anyway, as she looked through them, she gradually became overwhelmed.

Out of reverence, everyone bowed to the Buddha statues in several directions, just as they had done before.

The next hall we entered was the Sutra Repository.

Li Zhen had only ever seen places like this in books or TV dramas before.

She felt that the library must be a mysterious place.

The library mainly houses Buddhist scriptures and artifacts.

In addition, the scripture repository is also a place in the temple used to store Buddhist scriptures and to conduct sermons.

The Sutra Repository is located behind the Mahavira Hall and is where the monks store scriptures and preach.

It was once very popular all over the world.

However, Li Zhen had absolutely no interest in these Buddhist scriptures and artifacts.

Lee Jung-il wasn't interested in what the other guests thought.

After visiting several palaces, she was deeply moved.

History and ancient legends seem very mysterious.

There are still so many places that humans haven't yet explored, or even can't explore.
