In early winter, Linggu Temple not only has wintersweets, but also...

Although Linggu Temple belongs to Zhongshan Scenic Area, it is not as famous as Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, Meiling Palace, and National Taiwan Conservatory of Music. However, because of this, there are not many people around, leaving a quiet atmosphere. It is very large and can be an independent Linggu Temple scenic spot. It is also a place in Nanjing that is seriously underestimated in my mind. It is a small but treasured place. - 🚏Attractions: Linggu Temple 🎫Tickets: 35 yuan 🚄How to get there: Take Metro Line 2, get off at Zhongling Street, then take a taxi or bus No. 202 - 🗺Travel route: Yingjia Bridge — Hongshan Gate — Wuliang Hall — Linggu Park — Linggu Pagoda — Linggu Temple — Prajna Gate — Chanting Hall (Wintersweet) - Main attractions: ❶ Linggu Temple Known as the "No. 1 Zen Temple in the World", it has red walls, green tiles, deep pines and ancient springs. In spring, there are magnolias, in autumn, there are ginkgo trees, and in winter, there are wintersweets. Now they are in full bloom. It is breathtakingly beautiful all year round. Moreover, Linggu Temple can be said to be the most effective temple for seeking wealth in Nanjing. People come here to pray all year round. The New Year is coming soon. I went to the God of Wealth Temple in Linggu Temple to get the lucky beads for the Year of the Snake. I can also get the red envelopes and stickers for the Year of the Snake. I bought one string, and I have to say that the lucky beads for the Year of the Snake are really beautiful. Wearing them will keep you lucky for a year💰 Print the "wealth rolls in" on the Year of the Snake sticker, bring it to the temple, and take a photo with the big "Fu" character next to the Prajna Gate, and you will have good luck for the whole year. ❷ Wintersweet in the Chanting Hall Coming out of the Temple of the God of Wealth, you will see the top winter flowers in Nanjing, the Winter Plum Blossom, right in front of the Sutra Chanting Hall. In fact, the best place to take photos is through the window in the Sutra Chanting Hall. ❸Beamless Hall: The entire building is built with huge bricks, without any wood or nails. It is magnificent and the memorial archway of the generals inside is worth commemorating. ❹Linggu Tower: The eight-sided, nine-story pagoda is built of Jinshan granite and covered with green glazed tiles. The four characters "Serve the Country with Loyalty" are written on the outside of the pagoda. From the top of the pagoda, you can overlook the Zhongshan Scenic Area. ❺Linggu Park A large lawn with the Jinling Osmanthus King (not in bloom this season). Going deeper, the Soldiers' Monument is also here. - Tips: 1. You don't have to go back the whole way in Linggu Temple Scenic Area. It takes about two hours to complete the whole journey. It is very comfortable 2. Linggu Temple belongs to Zhongshan Scenic Area. The Wutong Avenue at the entrance is as beautiful as the one on Huanling Road. 3. Don’t step on the big lawn in Linggu Park, where the anti-Japanese soldiers rest in peace
