Autumn colors of Tanzhe Temple

There is a famous ginkgo tree called Emperor Tree in Tanzhe Temple, which is very beautiful. Every autumn, many photographers come here to take pictures. It is said that this tree was planted in the Tang Dynasty and has a history of 1400 years.

I have been to Tanzhe Temple several times, and I have never seen golden trees in winter or summer.

Coincidentally, on a late autumn afternoon, I came to Tanzhe Temple.

The air in the mountains is excellent, the sky is blue and the sun is shining. When driving in the mountains, I watched autumn scenery all the way.

Because it is a working day, I thought there were few people. I didn't expect a long queue at the ticket gate. Many people carry professional cameras. It seems that there are many pursuers of good things in life.

Temples always have a solemn and mysterious feeling. Although people can be seen everywhere, there is no noise. People quietly took photos, visited and walked through layers of temples.

Tanzhe Temple has a long history and many beautiful legends, but people who come here in autumn are chasing the beauty of light and shadow.

Tanzhe Temple in autumn is full of ancient trees and scenery.

In every corner of the temple, you can meet photographers, some with professional cameras and some with mobile phones, all looking for different perspectives and recording the beauty in their eyes.

I have long heard that there is a "all the best" tree next to Piluge in Tanzhe Temple. It is said that it was planted in Liao Dynasty and is a first-class ancient tree. This time I finally found it, because I found the persimmon hanging on the top of the tree.

Actually, these are two trees. A cypress tree and a persimmon tree are born a couple, like a couple. People take its homonym and call it "Pepsi (persimmon) Ruyi Tree". Because there is a Buddha in the Pilu Hall who is in charge of human affairs, the name "Everything is as you wish" is quite Buddhist.

That's interesting.

In fact, there are quite a few persimmon trees in Tanzhe Temple, with more than 20 trees, ranging in age from several decades to a hundred years. They can produce thousands of kilograms of persimmons every year, which is a rare autumn scenery in Tanzhe Temple.

The ancient aesculus is very touching. The tree is tall and leafy, but it has only seven fingers. The leaves are yellow and green, shining in the afternoon sun and swaying in the wind.

There are also maple leaves and cotinus coggygria, but after the best viewing season, some of them are dry. I didn't shoot many buildings this time, but I shot a lot last year and sent it once.

There are the most tourists under the royal ginkgo tree, and it seems that there are people from all angles. Some people use a tripod to hold up a professional camera, just like the barrel of a gun pointing at a ginkgo tree, constantly shooting. There are also senior enthusiasts, standing by the camera, watching the time, waiting for the light, hoping to shoot the beauty in their hearts.

There is also a small video, in which a girl takes a golden ginkgo leaf as a prop from the ground, throws it into the sky, and then dances with the leaves herself.

More people, like me, just record and feel the annual autumn festival.

Life goes on.
