Trip Planner: Asia / China / Jiangsu / Suzhou / Hanshan Temple

Hanshan Temple, Suzhou

3.9

Hear the bells from Tang poet Zhang Ji's melancholy poem, ''A Night Mooring Near Maple Bridge'' at Hanshan Temple, a Buddhist monastery. See a statue of the poet during your visit, and see the two bells currently used at the temple, both dating from around the start of the 20th century. Reputedly founded during the Tianjian era (502-519 CE), the temple has been largely rebuilt in recent years, but still retains its character, with each aspect discussed in the poem becoming a place of pilgrimage for people across the region.

因為張繼的一首楓橋夜泊而聞名，詩的內容很清楚寫明了在姑蘇城外，而寒山是古時廟裡的和尚因受推崇而命名，寺裡不大幾分鍾就能走完，可付錢敲鐘三下，多了不行，不想敲聽聽別人敲的鐘聲一樣能達到平靜心靈的效果，要收門票，所以有時間就來看看吧！ more »

Because of the name of a maple bridge night, poetry's content is clearly written outside the city of Gu, and Cold mountain is the ancient temple of the monks for the praise and named, Temple is not a few points minutes can walk, can pay the bell three, more than not, do not want to knock listen to listen to other people to knock the bell to achieve the effect of meditation, to receive tickets, So have time to look at it!

月落烏啼霜満天、　江楓漁火対愁眠。姑蘇城外寒山寺、　夜半鐘聲到客船。　長崎の琴海から来られた方がこの詩をそらんじて歌われて驚いた。 more »

于蘇州西郊，已有一千四百多年的歷史，是著名的祈福勝地，每天來寺中撞鐘進香、祈求平安的信徒絡繹不絕。寺廟很古樸宏大，特意在寺裡吃了素面，出寒山寺後可步行去楓橋景區感懷一下唐詩中的點滴意境，注意這兩個地方雖然毗鄰，但是分開單獨售票。 more »

In the western suburbs of the Soviet state, has more than 1400 years of history, is the famous blessing of victory, every day to the temple hit the bell into incense, pray for peace of believers 繹 not absolutely. Temple is very ancient Pot grand, especially in the temple to eat vegetarian noodles, out of Hanshan temple can walk to Maple Bridge to take a look at the scenery of Tang poetry, attention to these two places although adjacent, but separate ticketing.
