Berlin Temple is also in Zhao County, about three kilometers away from Zhaozhou Bridge.

There is also a stupa inside the temple. Not all places in the temple are open, and there are benefactors staying overnight inside. But I heard that female benefactors don’t have tickets: they are free. The tour guide said that this is because the previous old abbots came to this temple through Shifang Yuan, so they made a rule not to charge tickets. It is better to be a monk in the past.
