Praying at Guanyue Temple in Quanzhou

#Mainland Travel **The grand scene of blessing at Guanyue Temple in Quanzhou: an ancient temple with a lot of incense, with insightful tips on fortune-telling** 🏮 **Ancient temple, thousand-year heritage** The Tonghuai Guanyu Temple in Quanzhou, commonly known as the Guandi Temple, was first built in the Song Dynasty. After nearly a thousand years of vicissitudes, it is one of the six ancestral temples of Guan Gong belief and also the largest existing martial arts temple in Fujian Province. The temple was originally named Guandi Temple because it was dedicated to Guan Yu. In the third year of the Republic of China, Yue Fei was added to the temple and it was renamed Tonghuai Guanyue Temple. It became a rare temple in China that enshrines both Guan Yu and Yue Fei. It is truly an imperial holy place of faith. 🌟 **The incense is strong and the believers are coming in droves** The Guanyu Temple is always popular with believers. No matter whether it is marriage, business, illness, job hunting or other major or minor matters in life, the people of Quanzhou are happy to go to the Guanyu Temple to ask for divination. It is said that the fortunes drawn in this temple are extremely effective and that those who worship will be blessed. This is truly my sincere admiration after experiencing it personally! 🔥 **Strategy for fortune-telling, step by step** 1⃣ **Shake the lottery tube and the lucky lot will appear**: Shake the lottery tube with all your strength. If you are lucky, one lot will fall naturally or stand out. If there is no such sign, you may repeat the steps until the lucky sign appears. 2⃣ **Bow to Guandi and use the letter cup as proof**: After drawing the lot, first bow to Guandi, then ask softly: "Is this lot what I asked for?" Then throw the two letter cups on the ground. If both sides are the same, it means that this lot is not for you and you need to put it back and draw again; if one is positive and the other is negative, congratulations, this lot is exactly what you wanted and you can go to the lot interpretation office to find out. 3⃣ **Interpretation and meaning of the lot, insight into the mystery**: Go to the lot interpretation place, report the number on the lot, the interpreter will immediately give you the lot poem and explain the meaning of the lot in detail. The fee for deciphering a visa varies from 2 to 10 meters per visa, depending on the complexity of the visa. 🌃 **As night falls, the temple shines brightly** When night falls, the lights of Guanyue Temple are dazzling. From a distance, it is as beautiful as Chongqing's Hongyadong, which is intoxicating. ‼ ️ **Special Tip**: The 16th day of the 12th lunar month is the Quanzhou Tail-Gong Festival, which is popular between Fujian and Taiwan. It is a native Chinese traditional festival that heralds the approach of the Spring Festival. #QuanzhouTourism #TheCulturalBeautyofQuanzhou
