Xiangji Temple in Hangzhou｜A thousand-year-old temple hidden in a bustling city! .

The sun is shining and the breeze is not dry. I originally wanted to go to Lingyin North Peak, but thinking that it seemed like I hadn’t been to the Grand Canal for a long time, I came to Xiangji Temple next to the canal. . It is not as big as Jingshan Temple, nor as popular as Lingyin Temple and Faxi Temple, but it is hidden in a bustling city. For thousands of years, it has enshrined the only Kitchen God Bodhisattva in the country - Jianzhai Bodhisattva. . The unique copper sculpture building and unique metal texture are different from the common bright yellow temples, forming a strong contrast with the surrounding high-rise buildings, and the ginkgo 🍂 at the door has turned yellow! It’s really beautiful! .
