Nanputuo Temple is mainly dedicated to Master Guanyin. Because it is located at the southern foot of Putuo Mountain in Zhejiang, it is called Nanputuo. There is a release pond in front of the temple. Besides carp, there are many small turtles swimming around. Nanputuo Temple is slightly different from the sitting animals in front of other temples, with two more elephants. Nanputuo is located in front of the famous five old peaks in Ludao city, with its back to the picturesque Bicheng coast. Adjacent to the famous Xiamen University, surrounded by cigarettes all year round, the scenery is excellent.

Why is Nanputuo the most Buddhist temple? At a time when the major temples in China were raising prices to collect tickets, Nanputuo cancelled the original inexpensive 3 yuan tickets several years ago and prepared a incense for each pilgrim for free. There is almost no business atmosphere in the whole temple, but there are many volunteers to help maintain order.

Nanputuo Temple has a long history, and the whole temple does not have much commercial atmosphere, which gives people a good feeling. The whole tour takes about 1.5-2 hours. If you want to climb the Five Old Peaks, you can go out directly from the exit of Shiwan Botanical Garden.

There are no tickets for Nanputuo Temple, and no one sells incense here. Pilgrims are all voluntary. Most pilgrims don't burn incense, but worship or bow down with their hands folded. Neither pilgrims nor tourists make much noise. Therefore, the whole temple is not as smoky as other temples, giving people a feeling of cleanliness and leisure.

Nanputuo is not big. There is a big pond in front of the gate, which gives people a feeling of openness and temperature. Through the front halls, the stone forest behind is also not to be missed. There are many stone carvings here, as well as the biggest word "Buddha" in Minnan Temple. A little higher than the word "giant Buddha", there is also a Buddhist cave with many small Buddha statues. You can climb five ancient peaks along the back hill and overlook the panoramic view of Xiamen, or you can walk along a path through Zhao Pu Temple and return to the main hall exit.

Entering from the King's Temple and paying homage along the central axis, even if it is no longer just a temple, it is also a must-see place for tourists coming to Xiamen. But everyone consciously kept a quiet atmosphere, and under the guidance of volunteers and volunteers, the whole temple was orderly.

Different from the beautiful Taoism in Wuyishan, the Buddhist atmosphere in Nanputuo is warm and rich. It happens to be the birthday of a bodhisattva (not verified). Needless to say, the incense is strong, the locals and tourists are in an endless stream, and the Buddhist temple is almost packed. Wherever I go, I like to visit temples. Putuo Temple gives people a very comfortable feeling. The architecture is exquisite and elegant unique to the south, and the plants are rich and aura, which is a bit like the temperament of Suzhou gardens.

Avalokitesvara always sits on the lotus platform, and the lotus flowers in front of Nanputuo Temple are full of green eyes. Walk along Lianhua Road to the main place of worship. The treasure halls are located in an orderly manner by the mountains and rivers. Heavenly King Hall, Mahayana Hall, Hall of Great Compassion, Pavilion of Scripture, pious prostration, wishing for a healthy family career and a happy marriage. According to Buddhist rules, don't wear a hat and an umbrella when entering the door, and don't step on the door, especially when taking pictures of bodhisattvas.
