定光寺

20230510下午：1、“定光寺”位於4A景區“於山”內。於山是福州市區三山之一，歷史悠久、名勝古迹雲集，因戰國時期“於越氏”居住於此故得名，又名"九仙山"（漢代何氏九兄弟在此煉丹修仙）和"九日山"（漢武帝時期的閩越王無諸曾於九月九日重陽節在此宴酒），文革時期曾短暫改名為“紅岩山”，1977年恢復，歷史上留有辛棄疾、戚繼光、朱熹、耿精忠、林則徐、郁達夫、嚴復、蔣光鼐、蔡延鍇等名人足跡，摩崖石刻共113處，其中宋代的35處，包括福州市最大的刻石《南校場演武廳銘》。於山形似大鰲，據《名勝志》記載古時有“大鰲24奇景”，民國後期荒廢，目前是一處開放式公園，入園免費。①地址：福建省福州市鼓樓區於山頂1號。②交通：公交直達，開車也很好停。③旺季：無。④用時：3小時。2、定光寺始建於唐天佑二年（905年），由當時的閩越王王審知所建，並建白塔“報恩定光多寶塔”（因在修建地基時，發現一顆寶珠而得名。白塔顏值較高，是福州古城標誌性景觀）超度亡母，2年後朱溫滅唐朝後建立後梁，為祝賀此事改名“萬歲寺”，也名“白塔寺”，後來寺廟在明嘉靖十三年（1534年）被雷火焚毀，又於嘉靖二十七年（1548年）重建。定光寺是五代時期的福州名寺，現存建築是清道光至光緒年間重建，寺內三大殿為“大雄寶殿”、“天王殿”和“法雨堂，法雨堂是紀念五代時期後梁貞明元年（915年）寺內僧人義收在白塔上自焚求雨的壯舉，後來天公作美果然下雨並澆滅火焰，義收安然無恙。此堂還曾做過近代思想家嚴復的讀書堂，以及晚清福建船政學堂的校舍。

這是座古寺，在於山，福州白塔也在寺內。這景點建議去逛逛，免費的，花點時間好好参觀下，近距離看看福州地標建築白塔。逛完寺廟，可以接着逛逛於山其它景點，非常不錯。

定光寺在於山景區的出入口的地方，隔壁是於山賓館跟於山堂，對面是五一廣場，位置就在市區，交通非常方便。定光寺的白塔，跟烏塔一起雙雙併列福州最有名的塔樓。兩塔常常一起出現在明信片上面，很漂亮的畫面。白塔目前維修中，外面是遮起來的施工紗。定光寺走到烏塔大約20分鐘，路途不遠，所以於山、定光寺、三坊七巷、烏塔公園算是一條線的行程。定光寺正門的樓梯上，滿滿滿的人群，是福州知名相親角，畫面不輸上海人民公園。我經過時有點震驚，疫情期間還擠滿阿姨阿伯們，大家要注意防疫安全，保持距離呀。

寺廟不大，就在於山景區，香火挺旺的。

Dingguang Temple, also known as Dingguang Pagoda Temple, commonly known as "Baita Temple", is located at the foot of Shanxi Province, a palace-style building. Dingguang Temple was founded in the second year of Tang Tianyou (905). Two years later, in order to congratulate Zhu Wen on his accession to the throne, it was renamed "Wansui Temple" (commonly known as Tasi). Existing temples were rebuilt during the reign of Qingdaoguang. Dingguang Temple is divided into three main halls - "Tianwang Hall, Daxiong Palace (Pilu Hall) and Fayu Hall. Around the hall are Huafeng Hall, abbot's room, living room and monk's house. The temple is surrounded by a famous white pagoda ("Dingguang Pagoda") with 41 meters high, seven floors and star anise. A custom-made Gallery made of more than 200 pieces of blue and white porcelain is arranged from the corridors on both sides of Pilu Hall in Dingguang Temple. The picture scrolls about one meter wide are embedded on the wall. Along the corridor, the white pagoda is surrounded by half of the temples. It is amazing. Porcelain paintings with white background blueprints depict Buddhist legends. They are full of pictures and texts. From the birth of Sakyamuni to the introduction of Buddhism into China. Unfortunately, this time is rather hasty, there is no pictures. White Pagoda, also known as Dingguang Pagoda, formerly known as Baoen Dingguang Pagoda, was built in the first year of Tang Tianyou (904) by the King of Fujian who recommended blessings to his parents. Legend has it that a shining jewel was found at the time of the foundation building, so it was named the light tower. When it was first built, the masonry axle in the tower and the wooden pavilion in the outer ring were a seven-storey brick-core wooden tower 66.7 meters high. Dougong, lintel, pillars and railings on each floor are carefully carved, and Buddha statues are also painted on the walls and doors of the pagodas. In the 13th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (1534), the tower was destroyed by thunder fire. When Jiajing was rebuilt in 1548, it was replaced by a seven-story octagonal brick tower, 41 meters high. Because the outside is coated with white ash, it is called the White Tower. White Pagoda is one of the two towers of Fuzhou "Three Mountains and Two Pagodas", standing at the foot of Shanxi Province, that is, Dingguang Temple, which echoes Wushan's Utah and becomes a landmark building of Fuzhou. The white pagoda at night is very splendid. We didn't go to watch it at night this time. It's a little pity.
