Gushoufu Temple

Step into Gushou Temple and be transported through time! This hidden Buddhist gem in Taizhou blends vibrant incense rituals with serene courtyards, where Tang-style upturned eaves glitter in the sunlight. The Mahavira Hall houses a breathtaking golden Buddha statue, while the 800-year-old ginkgo tree turns the courtyard into a golden wonderland each autumn. Don't miss the monks' dawn bell ceremonies – their resonating chimes create magical moments. Pro tip: Try the lotus root vegetarian dishes at nearby eateries for an authentic local flavor!
