The most beautiful nunnery in China is so popular that it only grows flowers without burning incense. Netizens exclaim that they want to become a monk at a glance.

The Buddha said that all living beings suffer.

But there are always people who can enjoy themselves in bitterness.

At the southern foot of Shengying Peak in Cangshan, Dali, Yunnan

There is a famous temple hidden.

It's not easy to find here. It's not an ancient temple.

It's not a tourist attraction, and it doesn't even smell like incense.

Its name, Silent Zhaoan

allegedly,

This poetic and philosophical name

It is taken from "feeling and fulfillment, silence as a warning".

It was once rated as "the most beautiful nunnery in China",

"the most artistic temple in China"

People who have been here have said:

It's so beautiful that I want to become a monk at a glance!

Many people have the impression

Most of the temples are Qionglou Yuyu, the incense is exuberant.

However, the silent nunnery is just the opposite.

It's simple and small, and it doesn't burn incense.

The reason why it is so lovable

And because it is full of all kinds of flowers and plants.

"the zigzag mountain road leads to a secluded place, where the Zen room is hidden with colorful flowers."

Here, the flowers are in full bloom and are full of colors.

Look around the whole front yard.

In fact, you will find surprises everywhere.

Every succulent plant is beautifully matched!

Look at it in detail

All of them are loved by people.

And these beautiful flowers are carefully cultivated by the masters in the nunnery.

Hidden deep in the mountains, hidden by flowers and trees

It seems that this place is just waiting for the right person.

And the quiet environment

It often makes people forget all the troubles of the world.

Gain peace of mind.

Today, it still seems that the window is still clear.

Actually built during the Tang Dynasty.

And this place wasn't what it is a few years ago.

Once also fell in the wind and rain, leaving only ruins.

In 2012, Gao Ludong, who had just changed his career as a designer, stumbled into Jingzhao nunnery.

There were only three masters in the Silent Photo nunnery at that time.

The monthly living expenses is less than 500 yuan.

After he spoke with Master Miaohui, the host of Annei,

I found that the two hit it off.

Later, the host asked him to help rebuild the temple.

5000 yuan in cash, a pile of stones.

Mr. Gao happily took the job.

The two worked together to build the seclusion we see today.

Jingzhao nunnery not only has a quiet and elegant environment

The Suzhai here makes people feel pure and abstinent after tasting it.

Many people come here for this bowl of fast food.

A big bowl full of

Vegetarian dishes include local potatoes, bean sprouts,

There are as many as 7 species such as tea tree mushroom.

Side dishes also have peanuts, tofu and dried radish.

The staple foods are rice, bait and steamed bread.

There are even dessert pumpkins and walnut cakes.

At first, Jingzhao nunnery provided fasting food for free.

Later, there were more and more followers and tourists.

The silent photo nunnery charges 20 yuan per person.

15 days and weekends are free.

Later, there were too many people.

The monastery can't bear it.

It can only be free on the first and fifteenth days of junior high school.

Master Miaohui said

The Suzhai here is an ordinary meal.

It is entirely the family practice of the general public.

The cooks are all ordinary volunteers.

There is no chef invited out.

It's just that they do pay attention to the ingredients.

Go shopping in the bazaar after 4 o'clock every morning

Only those planted by farmers themselves are selected.

Even if there is a worm bite, it looks uglier.

As long as you haven't been treated with pesticides.

And such as rice, potatoes and pumpkins.

It is even "customized" by the temple.

In addition to fasting, you can also make a pot of Zen tea in the teahouse.

Sitting in the afternoon, I didn't realize that the sun and the moon were already long in the mountains.

Every plant, brick and tile, a bowl of vegetarian, a cup of tea, every inch of time in Jingzhao nunnery is so beautiful.
