I didn't have the chance to experience the beautiful scenery of Hangzhou during the Asian Games, but I found stunning gradient colors in Hangzhou at the end of November. I've been to Hangzhou many times, and in the past, it was more about nostalgia, missing everything about my school days. Every time I went there, I would stroll along the route I used to take, reminiscing about the 151 tram on Yan'an Road. With two braids trailing behind me, occasionally a braid would come loose, the driver would get off the bus, pull the wire a few times, align it with the track, and then continue driving. This time, I was more in search of beautiful scenery. Hangzhou at the end of November was like a knocked-over palette. Cycling on the road from Lingyin to Beishan Street, the sunlight filtered through the dense leaves, and the golden plane tree leaves slowly fell with the wind. All worries can be put aside for the moment, and there is an irresistible urge to shout out loud. It's really too comfortable. From Jiuxi Yanshu to Lingyin Yongfu Zen Temple, then to Xiling Bridge and Bai Causeway, along Nanshan Road from Taiziwan to Huagang Guanyu, the golden or earthy yellow leaves are interspersed with red Japanese maples, reflected on the water surface, it's hard not to feel that the people of Hangzhou are fortunate.

[Beg] Hangzhou Yongfu Temple is a scenic spot in West Lake District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. It is located at the foot of Shisun Peak, about one li west of Lingyin Temple. It has a history of more than 1,600 years since it was founded by Zen Master Huili in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. According to Volume 32 "Temples and Monasteries" of "Hangzhou Prefecture Records" during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, Yongfu Temple is located at the foot of a mountain opposite the Huyuan Cave on Feilai Peak. It was originally divided into two temples, the upper and lower temples. Like Xiatianzhu (formerly known as Fanjingyuan) and other temples, it was founded by Zen Master Huili. It is recorded that in the first year of Xianhe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (326 AD), Huili, an eminent monk from Western India, came to Hangzhou to build a temple. He successively built ten temples including Lingjiu and Lingyin, and Yongfu Temple was one of them. Yongfu Temple covers an area of ​​more than 300 acres. The building complex rises against the mountain. The whole temple is divided into five open courtyards: Puyuan Jingyuan, Jialing Lecture Hall, Ziyan Huiyuan, Guxiang Zen Courtyard and Fuquan Tea House. It has seven courtyards, five halls, three halls, two pavilions, two towers, five pavilions, and more than a thousand ancient and famous trees. It is one of the largest temples restored in the Buddhist community of Hangzhou.

Yongfu Temple, praised as the first blessed place in Qiantang, is hidden under the Shisun Peak to the west of Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, about 200 meters away from Lingyin Temple. It has a history of more than 1,600 years since the opening of the mountain by Master Huili in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. After several renovations, it was officially opened to the public in 2005. The name of the temple, "Yongfu," means "praying for the gospel and blessings, eternal happiness and peace." It is hidden under the Shisun Peak, accompanied by mountain rocks and singing along the clear spring. It breaks the traditional central axis system of temples. The five independent and open courtyards are Puyuan Pure Courtyard, Jialing Lecture Courtyard, Ziyan Wisdom Courtyard, Guxiang Zen Courtyard, and Fuquan Tea Courtyard. The seven-entry, five-hall, three-hall, two-pavilion, two-building, and five-pavilion building complex is built on the mountain, with a staggered layout. Although these courtyards are not directly connected, they are ingeniously integrated into the surrounding green tea garden environment and more than a thousand ancient trees through the response between buildings and the relationship between the ups and downs of the terrain. It is one of the largest temples in Hangzhou. Walking into Yongfu Zen Temple is like being in the quiet and solemn atmosphere of nature, away from the hustle and bustle, looking for the most peaceful feeling in the depths of your heart, connecting with Zen, and living in harmony with nature. This temple, which integrates the style of Jiangnan gardens and Buddhist cultural architecture, retains the style of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty to a great extent in every Zen courtyard, every corridor column, eaves beam, every stone lampstand, bridge, and other details. It is known as "the most beautiful temple in China." When you come to Hangzhou, you must go to Yongfu Zen Temple for an in-depth experience.

[○] Hangzhou, the fertile land bearing the ancient Wu and Yue civilization, has enjoyed the reputation of “the Buddhist Kingdom in the Southeast and a Treasure on Earth” since ancient times. The Yongfu Zen Temple hidden deep in the area can be traced back to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It was founded by the Western Indian monk Huili. After more than 1,600 years of wind and rain, it is still quiet and solemn. The temple is nestled in the mountains and beside the water, enjoying the beauty of the two peaks in the north and south, and surrounded by the five clouds of Lingjiu Mountain. It has been known as the "No. 1 Blessed Place in Qiantang" since ancient times. [○] Yongfu Temple is like an elegant ink painting. The ancient temple appears and disappears among the mountains, hidden under the stone spar peaks, surrounded by towering ancient trees and shrouded in clouds and mist, adding a bit of mystery and transcendence. The clear springs flow by, and the temple is a piece of pure land, just like a hermit who has transcended the world, playing the piano, drinking tea, sitting in meditation, and living in harmony with the world. Walking in the empty mountains, searching for the spirit of Zen, you can see the reflection of the moon on the water and the clear spring, creating a tranquil and far-reaching scene. Since you are here, why not continue this blessing? Faxi Temple is famous for praying for marriage, Lingyin Temple is renowned for praying for blessings and wealth, and Yongfu Temple is the number one blessed place on the banks of Qiantang River. All three should not be missed. [○] As for transportation, the most convenient option is the subway and bus. Take Line 3 to Huanglongdong Station, and exit at Exit B to reach Huanglongdong Bus Station.
