Beijing! Baita Temple!!!

I've only passed by since I was a child, so I found a leisurely afternoon to go in with my friends to take some photos. 📷 I don't know much about angles, so I just took some random photos that I liked. Everyone who goes there will take good photos! The fridge magnets and cultural creations are also very beautiful! Just buy what you like. Take subway 🚇 Line 2 to Fuchengmen Station, Exit B, and then walk around. No need for a guide, just walk around. There are many coffee ☕️ shops around. I remember there was a vegetable market there when I was a child, and it was very lively. Baita Temple ticket 🎫: CNY 20/person, no need to book in advance, buy tickets 🎫 on site. Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday 9:00–16:30 I have to mention: Union members can enter for free!!! Save CNY 20

12-day trip to Chengde and Beijing in October.

(24.10.19 Saturday) A. Miaoying Temple White Pagoda Miaoying Temple (White Pagoda Temple) was built in 1271 by order of Kublai Khan, the first emperor of the Yuan dynasty. The Nepalese architect Araniko was responsible for the design and construction, which was completed in 1279. As the largest Tibetan-style pagoda in Beijing and a relic of the Yuan dynasty, it was included in the first batch of national protected sites in 1961. Tickets are CNY 20, and the temple is closed on Mondays. Miaoying Temple is simple in structure, consisting of the Mountain Gate, Hall of Heavenly Kings, Dajue Hall, Hall of Seven Buddhas, Hall of Three Buddhas, and the White Pagoda. The main reason to visit Miaoying Temple is to see the White Pagoda, but interestingly, the further you go, the smaller and larger the pagoda appears. It appears smaller because the pagoda is 50.9 meters high and close to the front hall, so the further you go, the smaller the pagoda's spire appears. It appears larger because the further you go, the more of the pagoda's body is revealed, until it looks like a large white wall in front of you. You have to look up high, but you can't see the top half of the pagoda. The photo shows the largest view of the White Pagoda I could capture in Miaoying Temple. The last photo was taken in the alley next to Miaoying Temple. If you just want to take a photo with the White Pagoda, you can decide whether to buy a ticket to enter the temple. The side hall of Miaoying Temple has an introduction to the life of Araniko. I remember it said he had 11 wives of different nationalities and ethnicities, most of whom were given to him. I'm curious, since this information is available, I wonder if there are any records of his descendants today. Recommended visit time: 1 hour. The Lu Xun Museum is nearby and can be visited on the same day.

This is how you Citywalk in Beijing.

When it comes to Citywalk in Beijing, there are many routes to choose from. If you ask me, I would recommend this route: ⛺[Tips]: Lu Xun Museum → Miaoying Temple White Pagoda → Temple of the Emperors of Successive Dynasties → Guangji Temple → Zhengyang Bookstore → Xishiku Church ⭐️Lu Xun Museum The museum mainly introduces the life of Lu Xun from birth to death. ⭐️Miaoying Temple White Pagoda One of the popular check-in spots, many tourists come here to pray. The best part of the route is walking from Lu Xun Museum to the White Pagoda Temple along the hutong. ⭐️Guangji Temple The temple is very popular, with lush greenery and friendly monks. You can see people reading scriptures everywhere. ⭐️Zhengyang Bookstore Located at the corner of the hutong, you can take a break here if you are tired. It is also a great place to take photos. ⭐️Xishiku Church The church is beautiful inside and out. Please take off your hat when entering the church.

Beijing White Pagoda Temple.

Good weather, blue sky, white pagoda, harmony and tranquility. As if everything could stop. 📍The White Pagoda Temple was built in the Yuan Dynasty and has a pair of authentic Yuan Dynasty stone lions. Unlike the lions in the Forbidden City, the lions here are lying flat, free and flamboyant. 📍The place where we row our double oars is not here, but Beihai Park. The White Pagoda in Beihai is a Qing Dynasty building, much later than this one. 📍It is said to have been built by the Nepalese craftsman Aniko, whose statue stands in front of the courtyard of the White Pagoda. ✅Photo check-in is recommended in the hutong or at the entrance, where you can take a picture of the whole White Pagoda. 🚉Transportation tips: Near Fuchengmen subway station, walking is fine, there are many snacks around, walking for a day is no problem. 💰Average cost: Admission is CNY 20, free for minors and those over 60 years old. 📝Tips: 👍The restroom is at the entrance, the parking lot is not open to the public. 👎I saw some tourists taking pictures in the Buddha Hall, which is really disrespectful, so be civilized and worship the Buddha.

This is a great place to take photos of the White Pagoda Temple. I found the best spot.

Recently, the Feng Tang Art Exhibition "I am a Cat" was held near the White Pagoda Temple. It is the first City Walk-style exhibition in Beijing. There are four exhibition halls around the White Pagoda in the nearby hutongs. It is very comfortable to stroll around the hutongs like a "cat" while visiting the exhibition! 🌟The theme of this exhibition is also very interesting: "Take the cat as a teacher" combined with the Zen style, and in the White Pagoda Temple block, there are temples and cats, a very dreamy linkage 📍There are three excellent locations for shooting the White Pagoda in the fourth stop of the exhibition, the White Pagoda Academy: 1️⃣There is a photo spot in the yard 2️⃣There is a skylight with five cats inside that can also be photographed 3️⃣Don't miss the yard inside, the best location is here, and it is also the location of my first picture! In addition, the entire exhibition is equivalent to turning around the tower, which also implies the blessing of good luck. The curators are really attentive!

Photo Guide | Grab all 9 photo spots of the White Pagoda in one go!

Beijing's famous Yuan Dynasty Tibetan-style Buddhist pagoda, the Miaoying Temple White Pagoda, is nestled among the crisscrossing hutongs, standing out from the surrounding grey low-rise residential buildings. If you want a photo that is rich in the charm of the capital city and full of local flavor, you must go to the White Pagoda Temple to take it. 📸Grab all 9 photo spots in one go: 1. Inside the White Pagoda Temple parking lot entrance: The red wall and ancient architecture set off the White Pagoda, giving the picture a classical and layered feel. (Image 3) 🔸Tips: You need some luck, go early to catch the parking lot without cars to look good. 2. East side alley of White Pagoda Temple: The classic spot between the White Pagoda Temple and the White Pagoda Temple Pharmacy. (Image 2) 🔸Tips: The busiest spot, especially during holidays, you need to wait for the right moment. 3. White Pagoda Academy: The academy truly located under the White Pagoda, situated at the end of the east side alley, inside the small courtyard on the left, with a superb upward-looking angle. (Image 4) 🔸Tips: You can take photos freely without consuming, which is great. 4. Gongmenkou San Tiao: Two spots, one at the end of Gongmenkou San Tiao, at the intersection with Gongmenkou West Fork, and one inside the hutong on the right side of Gongmenkou West Fork. (Images 5-6) 🔸Tips: Both spots are located on the west side of the White Pagoda, facing the White Pagoda in the morning with backlight, the effect is not as good as in the afternoon. 5. Qianchaoshou Hutong: This small hutong hides 3 spots, just follow the hutong to find them. Taking photos here has the atmosphere of the ordinary life of old Beijing. (Images 7-9) 🔸Tips: This hutong is located on the east side of the White Pagoda, with the opposite lighting, better to shoot in the morning than in the afternoon. 6. Second-floor terrace of the coffee shop: You can sit on the terrace and enjoy the sun while overlooking the White Pagoda and admiring the beautiful scenery. (First image) 🔸Tips: There is more than one coffee shop with a terrace around the White Pagoda Temple. I chose the Firefly Coffee Shop, which is located at the corner of Gongmenkou San Tiao, facing the White Pagoda with a fairly direct view.

Viewing Lotus at the White Pagoda Temple (1)

After visiting the White Pagoda Temple, I noticed the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom. I immediately walked to the edge of the pond, observing the lotus while taking pictures. The lotus flowers here are indeed beautiful, brightly colored and captivating. It's truly rewarding to come here.

Beijing citywalk·Surroundings of Xicheng Baita Temple

I always feel that the atmosphere around the Baita Temple in Xicheng, Beijing is very attractive. The simple and quiet hutongs, the neighborhood scenes without commercial emotions, and the ancient white tower standing tall in the distance make this place like an undisturbed treasure area in the city. I like to walk around and relax in the heart by turning around in the hutongs. In just a few months, it seems more interesting here at the Baita Temple. After the "Youhang", the leader of the Beijing burger shop, opened a branch on the side of the hutong where the white tower can be seen - next door is the local meat pie old brand "Eryouju", the neighborhood planning is really interesting, the meat pie is like a "Beijing burger" - another "Beiping Machine" with rare craft beer and pancake as the signature and feature also settled in the nearby in a flash store way. And a few minutes walk away, another craft beer bar "El nido" (their main store in Andingmen is also top-notch in Asia) is also preparing for a new store. It can be said that half of the craft beer in Beijing is concentrated in the hutongs of a few hundred meters. In addition, interesting dessert shops, cultural and creative shops, and coffee shops have also appeared one after another in the surrounding area (especially recommended coffee shop "Taxi", lovers of Japanese deep roasting should not miss it). The gathering of businesses is sometimes vulgar, but such a gathering in a neighborhood full of local emotions can still be said to be wonderful. Seeing more people can further experience the temperature and color of Beijing through this temple, this street, this shop, and the familiar people here are particularly happy. -

The sound of Sanskrit is everywhere, making people feel relaxed and happy

The White Pagoda of Miaoying Temple reopened after its renovation in 2021, and today is my first time to visit. There happened to be a renovation exhibition, and I took a close look. I was deeply moved. There are too many ancient buildings in Beijing, and the work of protection and renovation is arduous. The renovation process is complex and the technology is exquisite. It adopts the traditional method of original shape, original materials, and original craftsmanship, with the principle of not changing the historical status of cultural relics, and truly and comprehensively preserves and continues the historical information of the White Pagoda. Look, there is a pair of Yuan Dynasty stone lions in a lying posture (Figure 5) in front of the second hall. Although they are severely damaged, they still have a majestic posture and are full of dynamism; The large Maitreya Buddha statue (Figure 4) in the Hall of Heavenly Kings, when you walk up to it, you can't help but stop, deeply infected by that smile; As soon as you step into the pagoda courtyard, the chirping of birds is endless. Many pigeons land on the high platform of the pagoda base. The solemn and solemn pagoda hangs the Qianlong imperial pen 'with six supernatural powers' plaque. The copper bell on the top of the pagoda rings. Close your eyes and listen to the copper bell and bird calls to spend a quiet time comfortably. It is said that walking around the pagoda clockwise three times, you can feel the blessings of this efficacious place, the sound of Sanskrit is everywhere, making people feel relaxed and happy.
