About
快速信息: 登上那串石阶，能听到僧侣诵经和木鱼节拍与风中松涛交织，气氛既庄重又亲切。院内藏有保存完好的摩崖石刻与壁画，细看还能发现隋唐风格的笔迹和斑驳的色彩，特别适合慢慢观察每一处细节。
亮点: 清晨钟声常敲108下，低沉回荡时能把山谷填满，让人脚下的青苔和空气里的松香都变得更鲜明。據說院中每年农历十月，僧众会连续诵经七日，烛光在古老壁画上投下跳动的影子，声音把人带进一种出奇的宁静。
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes, many steep stone steps and uneven paths surround the complex.
- Shoot from the pagoda platform and the east side of the main hall for the best light and layered temple compositions.
- Visit on weekday mornings to avoid tour buses; national holidays are very crowded.
- Dress modestly and keep voices low around worshippers; carry small change for offerings or incense.
