Where is the location of Zen Capital Cultural Expo Park (Zen Expo Park)?

Chandu Culture Expo Park is located in the north of Outer Ring North Road, south of Luzhou Road Extension Line and west of Jiang Xiu in Yiyang New District. It covers an area of about 3,200 mu with a building area of about 560,000 square meters. The total investment of the project is about 650 million yuan. It is a comprehensive tourism project integrating cultural sightseeing and experience, leisure vacation and tourism real estate.

Yichun is not only the birthplace of Buddhist Mazu's revival of the jungle, but also the birthplace of three schools of Zen: Lin Ji School, Cao Dongzong School and Luyang School. Since 20 10, Yichun, known as the "holy land of Zen" in China, has made great efforts to build a Zen Capital Cultural Expo Park that integrates Zen cultures from all over the world. The construction of Zen Expo Park closely revolves around the historical and cultural concept of "a branch of bloom with five leaves falling in Yichun", highlighting the local characteristics of Yichun as a "Buddhist jungle and Zen holy land", which has a heavy cultural connotation. The park includes five-leaf empty gate, Zen Heart Square, Five-leaf altar, Nianhua Smile Sculpture, Zen Story Sculpture Garden, Inviting Moon Lake, Zen Victory Garden, Zen Tea Pavilion and other attractions.

When you enter the Zen Expo Park, the first thing you see is a five-leaf empty door symbolizing "one flower with five leaves". The line of sight reaches the north and south from an empty gate, which fully shows the "empty realm" of Zen. There are seven giant granite lotus stone carvings at the entrance, which are distributed in two lotus ponds, meaning that when Buddha Sakyamuni was born, he took seven steps in a row and gave birth to a lotus step by step. Wuye altar is a four-story antique building. When you enter the gate, you will find the bronze sculpture of Dharma, the originator of Zen Buddhism, which is 6 meters high. On the first floor, you can enjoy the cultural relics and historical classics related to the twenty-eight ancestors of Zen. On the second floor is Yichun 500-mile Zen master exhibition hall; The third layer is life Zen; The fourth layer is the management function area. The whole building is like a lotus lantern in front of the Buddha, which means that Zen will spread light forever. Come to Bai Fan Concert Hall. What is simple and solemn, clear and smooth, can be called the beautiful bloom of compassion and wisdom. Here, you can listen to the sound of ancient songs chanting Buddha, experience the artistic conception of meditation, enjoy the life of meditation and seek peace of mind.
