Detail     Travel Diary     Comment

Hongluo Temple Tourist Resort lies at the foot of the Hongluo Mountain. The main structure is the 1,000-year-old Hongluo Temple. The resort is set in the natural scene of the area.

Hongluo Temple was first built in Eastern Jin Dynasty and expanded during the prime time of the Tang Dynasty. It was originally known as the Darning Temple. During the reign of Emperor Yingzong (1436-1450) of the Ming Dynasty, it was changed into Huguo Zifu Temple. It was called by the locals as Hongluo Temple due to the legend of the Hongluo Fairy Maiden.

Hongluo Temple is the largest Buddhist temple in northern China. For the past 1,000 years, it has been a sacred site for Buddhism. Many famous Buddhist monks have a close tie with the temple.

The natural scene of the Hongluo Temple is very beautiful. It leans against the Hongluo Moun­tain in the north and overlooks the Hongluo Lake in the south. The mountains are covered with for­ests and the temple is hidden in an ocean of pine trees. There are three scenic spots dotting around the temple. They are the "Imperial Bamboo", "Male and Female gingko" and "Pines entangled with Chinese wistaria". After many years of devel­opment, six scenes of Hongluo Mountain, Hongluo Temple, Guanyin Temple, Beauty-dis­playing Garden, Pine Forest and Fruit Garden for Plucking cover a total area of 6 square kilometers.
