A real-life Kingdom of Women! Thirty thousand women practice here, forbidding adult men to enter

For the sake of cultivating their inner selves, even in the face of the harsh environment of the high-altitude plateau, they chose to stay, building 'square boxes' with a few planks of wood. The lower part of the wooden board is deeply inserted into the soil layer, the top is covered with waterproof cloth, and then a layer of simple mud is applied. This is their hand-built, only a few square meters of simple living room, also known as the matchbox room and such living rooms, there are more than 20,000 on the open ground next to the Yaqing Temple in Baiyu County, Sichuan. If you are eager to find a pure land of the soul, this is definitely a good choice!
