    In the long history of our country, the spread of religion has a very strong color. Under the influence of this culture, temples have blossomed everywhere. Each dynasty and each period had its own representative temple architecture.

    In the minds of the people, the temple serves as a kind of prayer. Therefore, when older people travel to domestic cities, they like to go to the local temple to worship first.

    However, it is gradually disappointing that many temples are now flooded with commercialization. For example, the Shaolin Temple in Songshan, Henan Province, which we are familiar with, needs at least a few thousand pieces to burn the first incense. Although many people have devout worship of the Buddha, they have to retreat because of some of its high fees.

    But today I would like to introduce you to a very special temple, and there is a limit to the number of people who can visit every day!

    This temple is Tsz Shan Temple. Tsz Shan Monastery is located near Ting Kok and Plover Cove in Tai Po, New Territories, Hong Kong, and can be said to be a "real temple". The temple is a hectare in size, surrounded by a large mountain and facing the sea, and can accommodate up to 2,000 devotees.

    The most special thing about this temple is that it is very environmentally friendly. You can't burn incense when worshipping in this temple, you can't use water instead, so remember not to bring incense with you.

    Inside Tsz Shan Monastery is also the world's second-tallest outdoor statue of Guanyin. The statue is 76 meters tall and is about 20 stories tall. The exterior is plain white, which makes people feel elegant and pure, and magically, this statue of Guanyin does not need to be cleaned.

    You may not know that this temple was invested and built by Li Ka-shing, the richest man in Hong Kong. With an investment of HK$1.5 billion, it took 10 years to build. Why did Li Ka-shing invest?

    Because Li Ka-shing is a very devout Buddhist. Although the temple looks ordinary, what I don't know is that the materials used are relatively expensive and high-quality materials, which can be said to be low-key and luxurious. The area here is huge, but only a tenth of the area is a temple.

    It is understood that there is also Li Ka-shing's private bulletproof Zen room.

    In order to maintain the quiet environment of the temple and not disturb the nearby residents and traffic, the number of visitors is limited to a maximum of 400 people per day. In addition, the temple does not accept tours, so you must make a reservation if you want to visit the temple. If you want to make a reservation, you can make a reservation online, and you must show your reservation number when you enter.

    And when it comes to some important festivals, such as the Chinese New Year, Buddha's birthday, and Guanyin's birthday, they will be open for free and tickets will be distributed.

    If you are visiting for the first time, here are a few tips for you: do not bring cigarettes, alcohol, or meat into it, which is disrespectful to the temple. And for dressing, it also has its own standards.

    You should wear a serious dress, no short skirts, shorts, sleeveless tops, etc., and you should not take pictures. So ladies should pay special attention. Do you want to go to such a low-key but connotative temple?

    There is a Tang Dynasty-style temple in Tai Po, Hong Kong, Tsz Shan Temple, which Mr. Li Ka-shing spent 1.5 billion yuan and spent nearly 10 years to build. What is very special is that incense is not allowed to be burned when visiting Kannon in this temple, but must be replaced by "water supply", in addition to this unique point, do you know what other secrets are hidden in this temple?

    1. Appointments are required for visits.

    Tsz Shan Monastery is now officially open to the public, in order not to affect nearby residents and traffic in the area, to enter the temple must be booked in advance, and it is open in eight time slots to disperse**, limited to 400 to 500 people per day; Special festivals such as Buddha's Day, Guanyin's Day, and New Year's Day will be open days, and tickets will be distributed, and it is expected that about 6,000 people will be able to receive it every day.

    2. Bulletproof safe meditation room.

    The environment of the whole Buddhist temple is elegant, but it is luxurious and low-key. The building materials in the temple are very particular, the wood is made of rosewood imported from Africa, and the lotus-shaped treasure cover of the three Buddha statues in the Daxiong Treasure Hall is plated with 24K gold, but the most talked about in Tsz Shan Temple is not these exquisite imported rosewood marble, but the monks' dormitory with bulletproof glass and steel plates.

    There are three dormitories in the temple, one of which has five rooms on the second floor with bulletproof glass, some of the walls are also embedded with bulletproof steel plates, and one of the large rooms also has steel plates for the toilet door. Security facilities also include closed-circuit television, electrical grids, etc., and it is said that the bulletproof facilities in these five rooms cost 4 million yuan. These 5 highly fortified rooms are said to be available to anyone in need, such as visiting elders, monks, etc.

    3. "Chocolate Zen".

    In order to attract young people to Buddhism, the monks of Tsz Shan Monastery have also come up with a way to replace the traditional "tea Zen" with "chocolate zen", which allows you to contemplate yourself by quietly tasting chocolate cake.

    4. Bird habitat.

    There are Sri Lanka ** to give the Buddha enlightenment of the Bodhi holy tree broken branches, because the temple is 6 percent of the green area, so attract 62 species of birds to inhabit, the temple also specially designed a "bird watching map" for visitors.

    5. The whereabouts of Zen gold.

    Master Tsz Shan Monastery has a single gold from the temple, and Mr. Li Ka-shing will add the same amount to the offerings made by everyone in the merit box of Wuguantang, and together they will do some public welfare projects as the charity of Tsz Shan Temple.

    Tsz Shan Temple is so kind to everyone, I hope that everyone is not here to travel, but to really calm down to study, and the Dharma, so that more people can enter the Buddha's door, understand the Dharma, and experience and feel a peaceful Zen realm.
