5/5
南普陀寺坐落在厦门大学的边上,所以可以和厦大放同一天游玩。它是闽南乃至全国闻名的佛教寺院,如果准备祈福,不妨来这里拜拜。寺庙后就是五老峰,也是厦门八大景之一,想要游山的话,也可以顺带爬山游玩。寺起源于唐代,清康熙重建,因其与普陀山普济寺同为主祀观音菩萨,又地处普陀山之南,故名南普陀寺。寺的外面有东西两山门,2个门之前的距离很近,所以哪个门进去都可以。放生池在2个门的中前方,内有乌龟,前还有荷花池。南普陀寺很小,如果不准备爬五老峰,参观起来很快。主要建筑有大雄宝殿、大悲殿、藏经阁等(从山门一路往前顺序经过),两厢有钟楼和鼓楼、左侧的慈善楼与右侧普照楼,左右对应,雄伟壮观。大雄宝殿是是供奉着西方三圣,大悲殿内奉祀观音, 十八罗汉分居东西两厢。而在藏经阁内,你可以看到各类珍藏佛教文物。南普陀寺内庙宇周围保留众多名人题刻,寺后崖壁有个很巨大的“佛”字石刻,常有游客来拍照。普照楼是吃素斋的地方,爱吃素的可以考虑在此用餐。南普陀寺的素斋还是非常有名的,全国也获过奖。走的时候别忘记带几盒素饼回去,南普陀素饼荣获过《中国名点》金鼎奖,是厦门有名的特产。有甜、咸各种口味馅料,如果有选择困难症,口碑比较好的有椰子味,南瓜味和绿豆味,南普陀寺后就是五老峰,号“五老凌霄”,是厦门八大景之一,如果想要游山的,也可以顺带爬山游玩。
