Jiangnan, wait until I take you slowly to Nanjing

This time we went to Nanjing, we only went to two places, Jiming Temple and Hongshan Zoo

I went to Jiming Temple many years ago. I visited it once after graduating from high school. At that time, the temple was doing rituals. It was the first time I saw Nisi Temple with such a prosperous incense. I was completely shocked. I vaguely remember that amidst the smoke, the singing of sutras echoed among the tall temples. Many believers held incense in their hands and bowed one after another... In the years that followed, once someone mentioned the temple and incense, I would think of that scene. When I once described my feelings to others, a guy told me: You were shocked by the power of religion. Many people have been like this since ancient times. There are no lack of predecessors and the latter. Many people have stepped into Buddhism in one step. It's just that you don't have wisdom, so continue to rise and fall in the secular world...

When I came to Jiming Temple this time, due to the epidemic and the Qing holiday, there were only pilgrims who came to offer incense in the temple. A fellow who came with him was still greatly shocked: Wow, so many girls are here to ask for marriage! Perhaps because it was Nian, almost all the girls were burning incense and kowtowing. The youthful faces had serious expressions, and wisps of blue smoke floated into the sky with worldly hopes.

The predecessor of Jiming Temple was Tongtai Temple built in Nanliang. Yes, it is Tongtai Temple where Xiao Yan sacrificed his life four times. In the first year of Datong in Nanliang Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Liang Dynasty issued an edict to build Tongtai Temple, and officially promulgated the "Wine and Meat Text" in this temple. From then on, various methods of Mahayana Buddhism in the Central Plains cut off meat and abstained from killing. The social and cultural system of Buddhism that emphasizes pure cultivation has been further strengthened, and the boundary between the secular world and the pure land of paradise in the West has been added.

Xiao Yan devoted himself to serving Buddha for the rest of his life, lingering in the changes of the supreme magic method. But I never expected that twenty years later, Hou Jing's arrogant soldiers would be welcomed in the temples and towers in the wind and rain. The dispute between the Xiao and Xiao opened the door for the northern military and soldiers who also chanted Buddhist names. The prosperity of the Southern Dynasties blew away overnight by the rain and wind.

Hongshan Zoo

This time I came to Nanjing, I specially went to Hongshan Forest Zoo. This country's only self-financing craft zoo has been praised on the Internet for its advanced management concepts in the past two years. The director called on everyone to retaliate against him. But in fact, not many people come to take revenge when they enter the park. It is more like a park where uncles and aunts usually exercise early in the community. It is clean and tidy, with birds singing and fragrant flowers.

Although the director has been crying about poverty, it can be seen that the infrastructure management level of Hongshan Zoo is very good. One criterion for measuring this kind of ornamental park is moving lines. Hongshan Zoo's moving line and guidance system are very well designed. As long as you have enough physical strength and follow the guidance signs, you can see all the animals in the garden. At key gathering points, guidance information will always appear in a timely manner. Remove the enrichment of the animal living environment. I think the design of the viewing experience for tourists here is also very good. To what extent is it? You can take a look at the photo below. I never thought that I could take a leopard so close. This big cat's expression can still be so relaxed.

Although I couldn't experience the pleasure of being urinated by leopards and tigers from the sky tunnel, animals could be seen busy rummaging in their territory in front of almost every animal house. Active figures were rarely seen in other zoos.

In fact, after a day of shopping, the deepest feeling is that everyone regards this place as a place to get along comfortably with animals. It is easier said than done. This relaxed atmosphere is actually the result of human intervention. Every detail of the zoo can be clearly felt. The managers here are a group of people who know what they are doing. Their efforts and achievements are vivid and worthy of our respect. From the attitude, I can feel that managers, animals and tourists are interacting on a level that pursues equality. I hope Hongshan Zoo will get better and better!
