Jiaxing Ginkgo Ceiling | I am crazily collecting autumn in Jiaxing

“A single tree is a grand autumn celebration🍂” But what if it’s a thousand-year-old tree? 🤔 Watch how a tree gracefully says goodbye. It’s not decay, but a magnificent, inward retreat ceremony. The most exquisite bloom is for the calmest fall. Autumn in Jiaxing is so beautiful. How can one city have so many thousand-year-old ancient ginkgo trees! These two thousand-year-old ancient ginkgo trees are in the Shifo Ancient Temple of Fengqiao Meihuazhou Scenic Area in Jiaxing, over 1,400 years old. The ancient temple and the thousand-year ginkgo trees complement each other. In late autumn, come see the tree and temple’s companionship. One tree gilded in gold, one temple with a Zen heart, together through the deep autumn of the human world. Autumn at the ancient temple is a passionate silence. The ginkgo returns all the sunlight it has stored over a thousand springs and autumns in this season. Find a stone step to sit on, watch the light and shadow slowly move across the ground covered with fallen leaves, listen to the faint chanting mingling with the wind and the sound of leaves falling. The monk’s footsteps are gentle, the broom sweeps away the brilliance, leaving behind a deeper clarity—turns out the ultimate splendor is just to pave the way for a grand farewell.
