Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Qixia Temple

Yunju Chan Academy is a top-tier boutique retreat nestled at the foot of Qixia Mountain, offering serene views of ancient temple walls and golden gingko trees. Just a 5-minute walk from the temple gate, its minimalist design blends traditional Chinese aesthetics with modern comfort. Each room features floor-to-ceiling windows framing panoramic vistas of the autumn forest, perfect for morning meditation or quiet contemplation.

For luxury seekers, Nanjing Jinling Hotel - Qixia Branch provides a 270-degree panoramic terrace overlooking the entire mountain landscape and temple complex. The hotel offers free guided tours to the Thousand Buddha Grotto and the relic pagoda, along with cultural workshops like calligraphy and tea ceremony. Both properties boast exceptional service, eco-conscious practices, and deep integration into local Buddhist heritage—ideal for travelers seeking spiritual tranquility amid natural beauty.

The most efficient route is to take Line 1 of the Nanjing Metro to "Xianlin Station," then transfer to Bus 68 or rent an electric shared bicycle—both take about 40 minutes. A taxi ride takes roughly 35 minutes and costs around ¥50, passing scenic areas like Xianlin University Town and Zijin Mountain Greenway. For real-time schedules, use the official "Nanjing Bus" app.

The temple area has a large parking lot, but it fills quickly during holidays. Public transit is strongly recommended to avoid traffic jams and parking hassles. Additionally, the temple offers free shuttle service (9:00–16:00) from the main gate to the main halls, significantly improving accessibility and visitor comfort. This seamless connection ensures a smooth, stress-free arrival.

Qixia Temple hosts immersive programs such as Morning Bell & Evening Drum Ceremony, Tea-Chan Workshop, and Thousand-Armed Avalokiteshvara Painting Class. During the annual Gingko Festival, the temple transforms into a luminous wonderland with night lighting displays, where golden leaves carpet the stone paths beneath soft lantern glow, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.

Guests may also participate in Sutra Copying Rituals in a quiet hall, guided by senior monks on brush technique and mindfulness. Completed scrolls are sealed in the temple’s merit box as sacred keepsakes. The on-site Buddhist Art Museum showcases Tang Dynasty stone carvings and rare manuscript rubbings, with regular lectures by scholars exploring the history of the "Four Hundred and Eighty Temples of the Southern Dynasties," making it a vital destination for understanding southern China’s Buddhist legacy.

Surrounded by the Zijin Mountain foothills, Qixia Temple is gateway to several stunning natural sites: Qixia Mountain National Forest Park, Thousand Buddha Grotto Trail, and Red Leaf Valley Viewpoint. In autumn, the entire mountain turns gold and crimson, with gingko and maple trees lining winding stone paths, blending ancient ruins with breathtaking scenery.

Don’t miss the Mingjing Lake Path, where mist rises over still waters reflecting temples and distant peaks—an ideal spot for photography and quiet reflection. Wildlife sightings include squirrels and white egrets, while interpretive signs identify rare flora and bird habitats. The temple provides eco-guided maps highlighting conservation zones and sustainable hiking routes, encouraging low-impact exploration. More than a religious site, this is a living sanctuary of biodiversity and serenity.

Beyond standard lodging, guests can join exclusive experiences like Nighttime Circumambulation Ritual—led by monastics at 7 PM, circling the stupa with chanting and wooden fish rhythms, fostering inner peace through mindful movement.

Every day, Dawn Mountain Blessing Ceremony invites early risers to ascend to the Guanyin Pavilion before sunrise, receiving blessings and protective talismans under the first light. Private Zen Rooms are available for long-term meditators or creatives seeking solitude, featuring soundproofing, minimal furnishings, and meditation tools.

Some suites include personal mentorship sessions with senior abbots, offering wisdom on life, mindfulness, and inner transformation. These deeper engagements turn a simple stay into a profound journey beyond sightseeing—toward self-discovery and spiritual clarity.

Yes! The temple runs Children’s Zen Fun Garden, a dedicated space for young visitors featuring "Treasure Hunt for Buddhas," handmade lotus lantern crafting, and mini-monk costume play. Kids follow colorful trails to find hidden "Buddha stones" in the woods, earning limited-edition amulets upon completion.

Every Saturday afternoon, the Little Monk One-Day Camp includes guided sitting meditation, drumming practice, and a vegetarian cooking workshop—like dumpling-making and lotus root porridge—making learning joyful and meaningful. Parents can join the Family Sutra Copying Session, writing excerpts of the Heart Sutra together, strengthening family bonds through mindfulness.

The area includes child-safe seating, nursing rooms, drinking fountains, and smoke-free zones. All activities are supervised by trained staff, ensuring safety and engagement. Whether for spiritual introduction or nature-based fun, families find enriching and accessible ways to connect with culture and calm.
