Come and visit my hometown for a day, a thousand-year-old temple hidden in the city

The thousand-year-old temple hidden in Ciqikou Ancient Town - Chongqing Baolun Temple, facing the Jialing River, is hidden in the city. And I heard that many people come here to pray for marriage, academic success, and to buy prayer beads, and the super popular eighteen seeds can also be obtained.
