On 20201005, I took the bus from 10:17 a.m. to Nanjing South at 11:50. I took Line 1 in 25 minutes to Zhongshan Building Hotel. After checking in, I went to Wild Horse Restaurant for dinner. The noodles were cooked with dried shredded silk, sauce-flavored duck fish, and Yangchun noodles were 84 yuan. The noodles were too bad and there were no ingredients. After dinner, go to Xuanwu Lake Line 1 and two stations. After walking around for half a circle, you will find a lake where you can boating. Then go to the Ming City Wall. The ticket is 30 yuan, which is far worse than Badaling. There is a Jiming Temple next to it that is under maintenance. The appearance is not bad. It takes about 2 hours to take the subway to Xuanwu Jinmao Hui. It is all restaurants and shopping malls. I wanted to eat from Nanjing food stalls, but there were a lot of people. I couldn't wait to choose Jinjiamen Chain for dinner. I ate cheese slow-fire beef grilled rice, potatoes and eggplant. The roast mutton kebabs and roasted chicken wings taste very good. I bought a roll worth 79 to 100 and spent 86 on it myself. It was much better than the one at noon. I was so full that I went back to the hotel Line 1 and Station 3.

The next morning, take the 755 from Tianlong Temple on Metro Line 1 to Niushou Mountain Scenic Area. Go to the east gate and get off at Tianque Station. Walk to Wuyou Square, and then pass an escalator. A majestic building, the Buddha Ding Palace comes into view, you can overlook the Foding Temple Tower, Hongjue Temple Tower, and Foding Palace. It is magnificent. It is the best position to take photos in front of the pool, and you can take pictures of the entire Foding Palace. The Buddha Ding Palace is the core building of Niushou Mountain.


Go through a corridor to the Zen Temple. In the Zen Temple of Foding Palace, the carved details on the walls of the corridor are extraordinary. If the lights are turned on, it will look even better and be resplendent. Not only can you watch the performance of "Zen Realm Grand View" here, you can also see the world's only Sakyamuni Buddha's crown bone relic. Walking into the interior of Foding Palace, you will suddenly see your eyes open. The spacious oval space is full of Zen decorations. The lotus base is located under the circular dome in the center. The lotus base is a statue of Sakyamuni's reclining Buddha. The surface of the reclining Buddha is made of white marble and can rotate slowly 360 degrees, showing the Buddha's tranquility and tranquility. realm of nirvana. There are also two saha trees with lush branches and large and small Buddha statues enshrined on the walls.

The core of the Zen Realm Grand View is Zen culture, which consists of three parts: the Zen Realm Garden where the Buddha was born, the Zen Realm Garden where he became a Taoist and the Lotus Theater in the middle, which together represent the story of the Buddha's life. Just in time for a performance such as the Lotus Buddha Ode. At the beginning of the performance, the lights on the Cangxiong dimmed, and the fountain around the reclining Buddha opened. The reclining Buddha slowly rotated and rose in the rhythm of the music. Believers who came to pay homage held lotus flowers in their hands. Around the reclining Buddha, they chanted Buddhist scriptures in their mouths and sincerely prayed for Buddha's blessing.

There are four performances such as Lotus Buddha Ode here every day, using modern optoelectronic technology to integrate Buddhist culture and show people traditional Buddhist Buddhist Ode scenes. The four time periods are: 10:00, 11:30, 13:30, and 15:00. What we saw was the scene at 10 o'clock, where the huge lotus flower slowly rose with Buddhist rhythm. At this time, the whole person not only quieted down, but was also shocked by what he saw in front of him, so that his mood became complex and serious. People hold lotus lanterns in their hands and circle around the reclining Buddha to pray for blessings. They do not seek to escape the worldly world, but only seek to be infinitely light in their bodies and hearts. There is no Amitabha in the south. The entire lotus consists of 36 petals, each 12 petals forming a circle, and is divided into three different layers of lotus petals, one circle around the other, in a pattern. After the entire lotus flower was completely raised, many doors also appeared that could enter the interior. The doors were carefully carved and all of them were hand-painted by hand, making them unique. The Ten Thousand Buddha Corridor outside the Thousand Buddha Hall consists of three, four and five floors. The third floor is the Chinese Buddhist Cultural Corridor, which contains two Buddhist scriptures and verse corridors and sixteen silk mounted fine brushworks; the fourth floor is the Indian Buddhist Cultural Corridor, with twenty days; the fifth floor is the Buddha's native birth and relic culture. The walls and Xiongding murals are all manually painted, which is lifelike and vivid.

The underground palace came out and ate a vegetarian buffet. It was 68 yuan per person. The taste was okay, but the price was a bit expensive. After eating, I went to the scenic spots. Niutou Zen Cultural Park. Foding Tower will come down on the second floor. I didn't go to Foding Temple, Yinlong Lake, Zhenghe Cultural Park. I didn't know there were other attractions. I thought I had finished walking. I walked back just before 2 o'clock, but I couldn't get a taxi. I took a private car for 10 yuan each to Tianlong Temple Subway Station, and then took the subway to Confucius Temple 4.7 kilometers. Taking Line 1 to Sanshan Street and getting off the bus, there were not as many people as you imagined. Yu Garden, Zhanyuan, Imperial Examination Museum, and Dacheng Hall didn't enter. They only turned to Gongyuan Street. The Miaoshi Street View and Qinhuai River were also good, and the cultural activity center of the shopping and snack street. In the snack street, I ate duck blood vermicelli soup for 20 yuan, crab yellow shrimp cake and crispy egg pagoda for 15 yuan. I was not hungry at noon, so I went back to the hotel.

On the third morning, take subway No. 1 to No. 10 from the hotel to the Olympic Sports Center and take a taxi to Nanjing Eye for 11 yuan. Nanjing Eye is located on the central axis of the Youth Olympics axis of Hexi New City, Jianye District, Nanjing City. It is the first sightseeing pedestrian bridge on the Yangtze River. It spans the Yangtze River in Nanjing. It starts in Hexi Youth Culture and Sports Park and ends in Jiangxinzhou Youth Forest Park. The feather-like diagonal cables flap upwards like the strings of a harp. Pedestrians walk through them like jumping notes on the strings. In the Youth Olympic Park, the sightseeing pedestrian bridge on the Yangtze River and the Jiajiang River is next to the Gemini Poly Theater. It was built and opened when Nanjing held the Youth Olympic Games in 2014. It is a new landmark and a new attraction in Nanjing. It will look better when the lights are lit up at night. It takes less than an hour to take a taxi to the subway station, and then take the subway to Xinjiekou for shopping. Xinjiekou Pedestrian Street is lined with shopping and eating facilities. There are a lot of merchants and choices for eating. After eating the aftertaste beef large intestine fried rice for 20 yuan and crab yellow xiaolongbao for 28 yuan, I went back to the hotel to rest and check out at 2 o'clock. I went to the small shop next to the hotel to buy salt and pepper crispy for 9.9 yuan and beef pie for 5 yuan. I changed my train ticket and returned to Hangzhou at 16:17. The trip to Nanjing is over.
