Beijing Baoguo Temple Travel Guide

Scenic spot introduction:

Beijing Baoguo Temple, a thousand-year-old temple established in the early Liao Dynasty, is now one of the famous antique cultural markets in Beijing. It prospered due to the book market and gradually declined due to the book market. It is a glorious memory of a prosperous culture. Nowadays, the ancient trees, green grass, long and simple Ming Dynasty city walls and deep and dignified turrets seem to tell people the vicissitudes of the nation. Landscapes such as "old trees and bright walls", "roaming among ruins", "new charm of ancient buildings", "green battlements" still show the profound cultural accumulation of Chongwen, adding to endless reveries. The 18 special collection pavilions also make this place a "Grand View Garden" in the collection world.
