Section 15 West Sichuan Nine Days Nine Chapter 2: Guanyin Temple

After gathering at the CD Stadium at 8 o'clock on the dry day, the "Buddha Rice Asia" trip officially began. A Xin, a Tibetan female tour guide, said it was a "pilgrimage" trip.

The group of this "boutique small group" is small, with only ten people. The members of the group come from five provinces and cities across the country, and they are all in pairs. However, I was really not satisfied with the vehicle. A sixteen-seater van with low and cramped seats. The long ride makes people very uncomfortable. Fortunately, the two of us, who suffered severe motion sickness, sat in the first row as we wished. Later, the companion said that the seat pitch in the back row was tighter.

Today's destination is the Guanyin Bridge, which is about 400 kilometers away from CD.

The car goes up the Minjiang River, the scenery along the way is very beautiful, the mountains and rivers are beautiful. When I saw Yingxiu Town, I was still very excited. When the car passed through Wenchuan X County, my heart was very unsettled. Here, I wish Wenchuan a better and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Continuing forward, the vision is full of buildings with ethnic characteristics and villagers wearing national costumes, and we have entered Aba Qiang Autonomous Prefecture.

The exterior of the buildings on the roadside is the same, indicating that this is a government housing project. Then, these exterior decorations can be called luxurious high-rise houses, which proves the government's concern for ethnic minorities and also reflects the living conditions of local villagers. We were happy to see the affluent life in the area.

In such villages and towns with national characteristics, the style of the house is also different with the different nationalities. The same is that as far as the eye can see along the way, there is not a single dilapidated house to be seen.

The Tibetan tour guide also said that her home was in the mountains near Jiuzhaigou. They are also houses built with government assistance. The two-story building in the photo is beautiful, and it is basically the same style as the Tibetan buildings we see.

That's a great relief. These ethnic buildings are also a beautiful scenery. We can see that we are full of praise.

Between the two mountains, there are long-lost rice fields and golden rape flowers, and then intertwined with the fruity orchards on the roadside, making the idyllic scenery of this area pleasing to the eye.

Whether it is the statue of Dayu seen in the city center of Dayu's hometown, or the "Kangding Love Song" echoed in Malkang, all this makes us kind and not strange, but it is far away from us. Generally speaking, although it is a car to watch the scenery, it is also full of joy. It is a completely endless mountain, and you can't enjoy the beautiful scenery on the dam on the river road.

In the evening, we arrived at the town of Guanyinqiao in JC County. After dropping off your luggage at the hotel where you will stay tonight, take a local car to the Guanyin Temple on the mountain. This is also the only attraction in today's eleven-hour long run.

The temple is located at an altitude of 3,800 meters above sea level on Mount Nale. The Guanyin Temple is located on the slope of the mountain at an altitude of 3,685 meters.

We got on and off at the small square outside the temple. The square is full of excited tourists, and I am also very happy. Standing here is the view. Look at the mountains on the opposite side, the clouds and mist fluttering in the mountains, and the big six-character mantra on the hillside is amazing.

After that, we walked to the Guanyin Temple.

When I looked up at the tall and majestic, purple wall and golden top, and clean appearance of the Guanyin Temple under the platform, I was excited. I can't believe that I will still be able to come to this temple in this life. In the car, the tour guide said that this monastery enjoys a high status and wide influence among the Guanyin Bodhisattva temples in Tibetan areas of the country. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. However, after being in the future, I still feel a lot in my heart.

Today, we set out early in the morning and arrived at the monastery in the evening. It seems that today's day's itinerary is for Kannon Temple.

Therefore, when I entered the main hall, I reverently knelt in front of the four-armed statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and I was so excited that I was about to cry. I meditated on the prayer in my heart over and over again......

After getting up and going around the hall, standing on the side, looking up at the four-armed Guanyin Bodhisattva, looking at the Guanyin Bodhisattva who smiled at me, a warm current surged from the bottom of my heart, and joy came to my heart. I happily knelt in front of Guanyin again, this time thanking again and again in my heart......

It was already time to leave the main hall. The whole Guanyin Temple is splendid, and the whole body is splendid. At this moment, in the monastery, there is no fatigue along the way, and the whole body is relaxed and at ease.

In a sense, I loved the atmosphere of this majestic and magnificent noble temple on the mountain.

And Guanyin Temple turned out to be the only temple to enter the temple among the many temples we visited on this trip, which we didn't expect later. It can be seen that I have a fate with Guanyin Temple.

After descending from Guanyin Temple, near the hotel, my companion and I had an authentic Tibetan meal as a treat for ourselves.

It was too hard to sit in the car that day, and after more than four hours of driving, my body was so hard that I was about to collapse. After switching positions with my companions, my legs were able to stretch and my emotions calmed down.
