Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Jiufeng Temple

Stay at Jiufeng Mountain Retreat, a boutique eco-lodge just a 5-minute walk from Jiufeng Temple. Nestled in lush greenery, it blends traditional Zen aesthetics with modern comfort. Guests can join daily mindfulness meditation sessions and enjoy vegetarian meals prepared by temple chefs. The retreat offers complimentary shuttle service to the temple, making it ideal for those seeking spiritual connection and tranquility amidst nature.

Take Metro Line 3 to Daming Road Station, then transfer to Bus 802 and get off at Jiufeng Temple Stop, a journey of about 40 minutes. For a more personalized experience, book a private car transfer that winds through scenic suburban trails, arriving at the temple gate in under 30 minutes. On-site eco-friendly parking is available, but public transit is recommended to align with the temple’s values of simplicity and sustainability.

Don’t miss the Morning Bell & Evening Drum Ceremony at 6:30 AM daily, where monks ring ancient bells in harmony with chanting. In the afternoon, participate in a calligraphy workshop led by the abbot, learning to hand-write the Heart Sutra in Chinese brushstrokes. You’ll also enjoy tea in the Zen Tea Room, sipping wild mountain cloud tea while reflecting on the philosophy of 'one sip, one moment of stillness'.

Visit Jiufeng Ecological Park, a serene nature reserve adjacent to the temple. It features a child-friendly nature trail, a family camping zone, and outdoor education classrooms. Kids can explore the forest discovery program, learn about local flora and fauna, and interact with farm animals like goats and rabbits at the mini farm. Picnic areas with shaded pavilions make it perfect for relaxed family outings, balancing the temple’s quietude with joyful engagement.

The temple is closed to general visitors at night, but during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it hosts a magical Lantern Festival with thousands of lotus lanterns illuminating the courtyard. Each moonlit evening, guests can light a candle in prayer. Additionally, monthly moon-viewing meditation sessions are held on new and full moon nights—reservations required. Alternatively, book a stargazing room at Jiufeng Mountain Retreat with telescopes for an unforgettable view of the night sky, embodying the Zen ideal of unity with nature.

Try Hui Xin Zhai, a renowned plant-based restaurant located at the foot of Jiufeng Temple. Run by temple-affiliated staff, it serves seasonal, organic dishes crafted from local mountain ingredients. Signature dishes include "Bamboo Shoot Tofu Stew," "Five-Grain Nourishing Soup," and "Osmanthus Glutinous Rice Lotus Root." The minimalist, tranquil setting enhances the dining experience, where every bite feels like a step deeper into mindfulness. Reservations are strongly advised, especially on weekends.
