Xi'an

A must-visit hidden gem temple in Xi'an 🏯, Guangren Temple's red walls and golden roof are incredibly photogenic! As the only Tibetan Buddhist temple in Shaanxi, it combines the solemn beauty of ancient architecture with a devout atmosphere for blessings. 📍 Check-in Guide: Guangren Temple is located at No. 152 Northwest First Road, Lianhu District, Xi'an. It is open from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM (last entry at 5:00 PM). It is recommended to visit in the morning or evening for the best lighting. The temple is small but exquisite, with red walls, prayer flags, and prayer wheels all perfect for photos. Remember to wear light-colored clothes for better shots! 🙏 Blessing Experience: You can get a free wish card inside the temple. The prayer flag corridor filled with wishes is especially impressive. Remember to spin the prayer wheels clockwise three times, as it is said to be very effective! I also got a consecrated peace amulet, hoping all my wishes come true. 📸 Photo Tips: 1. The red walls at the entrance against the blue sky are stunning. 2. Taking photos of your back in the prayer flag corridor creates a poetic vibe. 3. The golden roof shines brilliantly under the sunlight. 4. You can take interactive photos around the prayer wheel area. 🚌 Transportation Tips: It’s a 10-minute walk from Exit D of Yuxiangmen Station on Metro Line 1. Parking nearby is difficult, so public transportation is recommended. After visiting, you can head to the Muslim Quarter for delicious food, just 2 kilometers away and very convenient. Accommodation Recommendation 🏠 Xi'an Aihosen Meishu Hotel has a great location, close to attractions, and offers a very nice stay experience.
