Traveling everywhere, I have considered a question many times - when I get older, if I choose a place to retire, which place is better?

Qingdao, Dali and Sanya are all good.

If you choose a place in Guangdong, I think Xinxing County is the ideal place.

Xinxing was not well-known before, but it has a very rich cultural heritage. Master Huineng, the sixth founder of Zen Buddhism, was born in Xinxing.

Xinxing relies on Zen culture to develop the tourism industry. It is now a new Internet celebrity city in Guangdong. Many tourists come to travel and vacation every year, among which the Pearl River Delta, Hong Kong and Macao tourists are the most popular.

Xinxing is located in the central and western part of Guangdong and is under the jurisdiction of Yunfu City. The pace of life here is leisurely and slow, and the climate of hills and plains is relatively comfortable.

The main landscape of the emerging Yuetianxia Ecological Resort is single-family and townhouse Spanish-style villas. The designers use Eastern gardening techniques and integrate Western living water ecological living concepts. When you come here, you feel like you are in a romantic European water town. You can't help but fall in love with it.

I want to record the picturesque scenery with my mobile phone and camera.

Guoen Temple, located at the foot of Longshan Mountain in Liuzu Town, is the signature attraction of Xinxing County.

This ancient temple was built in the first year of Hongdao in the Tang Dynasty and has a history of more than 1,300 years. It is as famous as Shaoguan Donghua Temple and Guangzhou Guangxiao Temple.

The word "国" in Guoen Temple has its origin.

This Buddhist temple was originally called "Baoen Temple" and was founded by the monks led by Master Huineng, the sixth ancestor of Zen Buddhism.

In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor advocated Buddhism, and the Sixth Patriarch Huineng was famous as a representative of Zen. The imperial court specially granted "Baoen Temple" and renamed it "Guoen Temple", showing his high status.

Guoen Temple has been repaired in every dynasty. The building complex you see now was completed in the 1980s after more than ten years of repairs.

Guoen Temple has towering ancient trees and long greenery. Although it is crowded with tourists, it has an artistic conception that is not invaded by the mundane world.

Zen Town is a newly developed tourism project built based on Zen culture.

Since the dynasty of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng was the Tang Dynasty, the town's architecture also adopts the Tang style, including the streetscape, bell and drum towers, etc. It has a sense of time travel. If you don't explain it specifically, you will mistakenly think that this is a film and television city.

Zen Town combines leisure, entertainment, food and other functions. Here you can taste a variety of authentic Cantonese food, and inadvertently meet a certain "Tang Dynasty person". These "Tang Dynasty people" are all played by the staff

, some of them are dressed as maids, and some are dressed as fishermen, monks, palace maids, eunuchs, guards, soldiers, singers, dancers, etc.

The classic performance in Zen Town is the "Sixth Patriarch Ceremony" in the evening, but there are also various pop-up performances during the day, and the unexpected excitement always brings surprises.

I stayed in Xinxing for four days and I really like the cultural atmosphere and life here. If you retire, even if you don't live here for a long time, it would be good to come here for a vacation occasionally.
