I have lived in Chongqing for six years, and I have punched in all the classic scenic spots. It can be said that I have visited Chongqing almost all the time ~ People in China like to go to some places where they can pray during the Spring Festival, because "Spring Festival Prayer" is as essential as "Spring Festival couplets, red lanterns and New Year's Eve". I strongly recommend you to visit and pray at Huayan Temple. I have been there with my uncle's family before, and then I went there with my parents and me once. I think it's very good. Let's share a tour guide for you ~

There are 15 patios, and there are more than 4 large and small houses such as temples, meditation halls, lent rooms and monk rooms. The houses are adjacent to each other and the courtyards are connected. It is the largest temple in the suburbs of Chongqing and one of the top ten jungles in Bashu.
