After lunch on April 23, I met some friends looking for epidemic prevention in the temple. I heard that they were going to Wulong Temple, so I got on the bus because I had never been to that place.

Wulong Temple is located in the north of Chaijiagou, Dengyu Village, Xixi Hot Spring Town, Zhouxi. Backed by Wulong Mountain Scenic Resort, facing the seamount, Wulong Mountain Scenic Resort Scenic Area is surrounded on the left, blue waves are rippling on the right, overlooking the front cottage, cars shuttling, picturesque fields and dancing wheat waves. This is a real contemporary Vatican resort.

According to Zhang Yun, the manager of the temple, Wulong Temple was founded in 2007, covering an area of 10 mu. The Zen master asked the Teachers College to choose a site and invest a lot of money to build it. The first building is Wushan Gate with a relatively flat slope. Then, two large platforms with a drop of several acres are leveled continuously with large machinery, and the Hall of Great Heroes is located on the highest platform.

After crossing the mountain gate, we climbed a step and came to the first platform, on which stood a Guanyin bodhisattva. Behind the Guanyin statue are two steps. When you climb the steps, you will find the Hall of Heroes.

Daxiong Hall, five rooms wide, surrounded by columns, rests on the double eaves of the top of the mountain, magnificent! Gold plaques on the black background on both sides of the temple gate read: "Incense is bound to welcome thousands of guests outside the mountain, and there is a heavy sky in the spiritual world." On the north and south sides of the main hall, several rooms are almost villa-style. Behind the main hall is the Wulong Mountain Scenic Resort Scenic Area.

Because of the epidemic, the temple gate was closed, and because lunch had just passed, the inside and outside of the temple were unusually calm. After the entourage contacted by telephone, the temple administrator opened the mountain gate and led us into the temple. All the houses and doors in the temple are locked. A gust of wind blew, and the national flag and temple flag hanging high in the yard were hunting at the pole head. At this moment, the fluttering sound coming into my ears, like piano sound and singing, makes me feel particularly beautiful. At our feet, there are a group of gray pigeons, who are not afraid of people and are around us to catch up with the drama easily.

After visiting the temple, when everyone greeted me and left, I didn't answer. I looked back at the padlock hall, stood outside, folded my hands, silently recited Amitabha ... and prayed for the Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva to show their spirits to drive away the epidemic, so that the world would be peaceful and auspicious, and China would be peaceful and peaceful!
