Randeng Temple

Randeng_Temple_1.jpg

Overview
Randeng Ancient Temple has a long history, and its original name is "Xinxiang Temple". Temples were built in Sui Tang Dynasties. In the Tang Dynasty, Zen master "Farun" had practiced here. Under the leadership of the master, Xinxiang Temple became famous. During the Song Dynasty, Emperor Zhenzong granted the temple the name of Ruiying Zen temple. Since the Qing Dynasty, the temple has been renamed as the Randeng Ancient Temple because of the worship of a Buddha.

Allusion
Chu Xinxiang (female, 581-604 A.D.), a native of heishuixi in Qingcheng County, Sichuan Province, worshipped Buddhism since childhood and was willing to help the poor. She chose San'e mountain, where the Rendeng temple is located, as his place of cultivation. Natural disasters often occur in the local area, and the people are in dire need of livelihood. She usually treats diseases for the public and gives food to them. She has won the hearts of the people and is called "living Bodhisattva" by the local people. After her death, in order to repay her, the local people built a temple here, initially named "Xinxiang Temple", also known as "Virgin Mary Hall".

Rebuilt
In the Qing Dynasty, with the arrival of a large number of Hakka immigrants, and the prevailing worship of Buddhism, Buddhist temples were restored and rebuilt. After the middle of the Qing Dynasty, Buddhists worshipped a statue of Randeng Buddha. There were 108 acupoints on the statue, each of which was cast with small holes. The wicks were placed in the holes. When the believers were ignited with oil, the whole body was bright. Every time the believers felt uncomfortable, they lit their lamps at the corresponding acupoints to eliminate disasters and diseases, which was very effective. Therefore, the temple was renamed "Randeng Temple", which has been followed up to now.

Duration:6-8 Hours

Attractions(Cities): Chengdu Panda Research Base, People's Park, Jinli Ancient Street, Kuanzhai Alley

Tour Style:One day, one private car, and an English-speaking local guide who has already booked every ticket on the list. Mornings start early at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding so you catch the pandas while they are still active; after that, the pace slows to a hillside teahouse in Renmin Park, gaiwan jasmine tea in hand. Between the two you walk Jinli's lantern-lit lane and finish in Kuanzhai Alley, where restored Qing courtyards now sit alongside small shops and tea rooms. Pick-up and drop-off match your schedule — a Chengdu hotel, a train station, or the airport.

Attractions(Cities):Chengdu Giant Panda Research Base, Leshan Giant Buddha

Tour Style:Two UNESCO-listed sights on one private day out of Chengdu.

Walk the Nine Bends Plank Road, take the river boat, or do both. English-speaking local guide, private air-conditioned car with an experienced driver, Panda Base and Leshan tickets included, hotel, train station, or airport pick-up.

Attractions(Cities):Chengdu Panda Base, Renmin Park, Wuhou Temple, Jinli Street, Wenshu Monastery, Chengdu Museum, Tianfu Square

Tour Style:This two-day private tour moves between the old and new faces of Chengdu at your own pace. Day 1 starts at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in the morning, when the pandas are feeding, then takes in the teahouse scene at Renmin Park, the Three Kingdoms shrines of Wuhou Temple, and the snack stalls and craft shops of Jinli Ancient Street. Day 2 covers the Buddhist halls of Wenshu Monastery, the collections of the Chengdu Museum, and the modern plaza at Tianfu Square. A private car and an English-speaking guide carry you between all of them, with pickup from your hotel, train station, or the airport, and the daily order flexes if you want longer at the panda base or a slower teahouse stop. Lunch is left open so your guide can point you to local kitchens rather than tourist menus.

Duration:8-9 Hours

Attractions(Cities):Dujiangyan, Qingcheng Mountain

Tour Style:This day trip pairs two UNESCO-listed sights west of Chengdu: the Dujiangyan Irrigation System and Qingcheng Mountain. A private car and driver collect you from your hotel, train station, or the airport and stop first at Dujiangyan, where an English-speaking guide walks you through the 256 BC waterworks that Li Bing and his son built without a dam, still carrying Min River water onto the Chengdu plain after more than 2,000 years. You see the Fish Mouth levee, Flying Sand Reef, and Bottle Neck channel up close. After lunch you drive to Qingcheng Mountain, a founding site of Taoism, and take the cable car and stone paths past the front-mountain temples. Lunch is left out on purpose so your guide can point you to a local Sichuan kitchen; pace, photo stops, and vegetarian or lighter requests are easy to adjust on a private tour.
