Chapter 983

Ye xiner, Yang Zixin, Zhao Xue and Su Yanfei woke up by Zhao Feng!

It's already nine o'clock in the morning!

However, today's itinerary has not been agreed!

Finally, they decided to go to the Magang peninsula that they had been to last night!

I saw the night scenery around the Macao Tower yesterday, but I haven't been to some other scenic spots with historical charm and cultural atmosphere!

For example, the most important buildings such as dashanba memorial archway and mage temple!

。。。。。。

After the decision was made, the party rushed to the Magang peninsula.

Along the road on the west side of Magang Peninsula, it belongs to some old urban areas of Magang on the inside of the road.

Mage temple is the first place that people arrive!

Mage Temple (Portuguese: temploa-m á), located in the southwest of Macao Peninsula, is built along the coast, back to the mountain and facing the sea, stone lion town gate and cornices in the sky. It is one of the three Buddhist temples in Macao. [1]

Macao mage temple is one of the most famous places of interest in Macao. It was built in the first year of Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty (1488) and has a history of more than 500 years. Mage temple was originally called Mazu Pavilion, commonly known as Tian Tian Temple. The main buildings include the main hall, Hongren hall, Guanyin Pavilion and so on. The mage temple is mainly dedicated to the Taoist goddess Mazu.

In 2005, Macao's historical urban area, including Ma Ge temple, was included in the world heritage list!

It can be seen that the cultural charm of Macao's historical urban area and the particularity of architectural design are still worthy of protection.

The mountain peak where the mage temple is located is not particularly high. They soon climbed to the mountain gate!

After taking some symbolic group photos!

A group of people walked into this temple, which is not a special one!

In the mage temple, there are four main buildings, including "the first sacred mountain" hall, Zhengjue Zen forest, Hongren hall and Guanyin Pavilion, which were built in different periods.

Among them, Hongren hall is the smallest, which is a 3-square-meter stone hall. It is said that it was built in the first year of Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty (1488); Zhengjue Zen forest is the largest, which was founded in the eighth year of Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty (1828); the "Shenshan first" hall was jointly established by the government and merchants in the 33rd year of Wanli of the Ming Dynasty (1605).

The above three halls are dedicated to goddess of heaven Mazu, and the Guanyin Pavilion is dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva.

The gate of MAGE temple is a archway style granite building, 4.5 meters wide, with only one door opening. There are three gold characters "Mazu Pavilion" on the lintel and couplets on both sides: "De Zhou Huayu, Ze run the people".

The top of the lintel is a cornice ridge, gorgeous and beautiful. There is a pair of stone lions at the gate of the temple. They are exquisitely carved and lifelike. They are the masterpiece of the Qing people 300 years ago. On a huge stone called "ocean stone ship" in the hospital, there is an ancient sea ship engraved with a flag with "benefit across the river" hanging on the mast of the ship.

According to the test, it is a story about a Fujian businessman who encountered storms on his way to Macao by boat more than 400 years ago and was lucky to be rescued by Mazu.

Among the distinctive buildings, there are stone steps and winding paths, surrounded by lush ancient trees, miscellaneous flowers and trees, and vertical and horizontal rocks, which skillfully combine the elegance of the garden with the solemnity of the ancient temple, showing ancient simplicity, elegance, grandeur, and full of national characteristics.

Mage temple is also a legendary temple. In the 1980s, a fire broke out in the mage temple. Macao residents still remember it when they talk about it.

That day, the "Zhengjue Zen forest" in the temple burned down in the middle of the night, while the statue of Mazu in the center of the shrine was only blackened by fireworks, and the collapsed beam fell in front of the statue, leaving the statue intact.

Mazu Pavilion in Macao is one of the earliest Taoist temples in Macao. It was built by Fujian businessmen and is called "amage". It is said that in 1553, the Portuguese docked at the ancient Wharf in front of the temple and asked the local Fujian people what the place was. The Fujian people mistakenly thought they were asking the name of the temple and said it was amage.

Since then, the Portuguese have used the homonym "Majiao" of "mage" in Fujian dialect to call Macao "Majiao port".

The mage temple, which has a history of more than 500 years, is the oldest of the three ancient temples in Macao (MAGE temple, Guanyin hall and Lianfeng Temple).

Every Spring Festival and March 23 of the lunar calendar, the incense in mage temple is at its peak. Since midnight on New Year's Eve, many good men and women will come to worship God and pray.

Zhao Feng and his party spent the whole morning in the tour of MAGE temple!

I have to say that the scenery of MAGE temple is still good. It is close to the mountain and the sea, and there is a beautiful scenery of mountains and forests!

Zhao Feng and his party walked all the way to the back mountain. They were still attached to each other!

There is also a scenic spot loved by tourists in the mountain behind the mage temple!

It turns out that there are countless cliff stone carvings on the stone wall behind the temple, which are the handwriting of political dignitaries and celebrities and literati and poets of previous dynasties.

These cliff stone carvings are not to be missed by any artful person!

Zhao Feng also looked at this place seriously for a while!

Until ye xiner was hungry, she was pulled away from the mage Temple by several girls.

After going down the mountain, it's already one o'clock!

Zhao Feng also felt a little hungry. There happened to be a time-honored brand in Magang nearby!

It's called "Juji handwritten letter"

Although this is only a snack bar, it's enough to fill your stomach!

The party lined up at Juji Shouxin store to buy a lot of snacks, such as almond cake, egg tart, peanut fudge, Phoenix roll, dried meat, pork shop, pineapple crisp and so on!

Finally, they bought almost a dozen kinds of snacks!

I bought several copies of dried meat, pork shops and egg tarts.

Simply used some.

I have to say that although it is only snacks, Juji handwritten letter can develop so well in Hong Kong and Macao. It is said that more than ten branches have been opened. It can be seen that the taste of these snacks is really good!

Although not everyone likes it, it is at least the most in line with the public's taste!

Zhao Feng didn't expect Juji's beef jerky to taste so delicious. He simply filled his stomach. Zhao Feng and He Jun lined up to buy more!

Think of it as a night snack!

When you return to the magic capital, come and buy some more.

In the afternoon, everyone's itinerary was changed. The original target scenic spot in the afternoon was dashanba memorial archway!

However, the memorial archway of dashanba actually starts from mage temple, which is the most inland scenic spot!

It's a bit of a waste of time!

So they changed their itinerary to Bishop's Hill Chapel in the afternoon.

Bishop Hill Chapel, also known as the virgin of the sea cliff chapel, is built on the western ocean mountain, one of the highest points of the Macao Peninsula. It is a chapel praying to the patron saint of mariners.

This building looks nothing special!

But no matter the geographical location or appearance style, they all belong to the kind that is very photogenic!

Therefore, Zhao Feng feels that this bishop Hill Chapel is very suitable for film or TV shooting! The effect must be good!
