"queue now." there are a lot of people entering the scenic spot, but there are not many people queuing up to buy tickets.”

seeing that the xiaoxitian scenic area was on the hot search due to insufficient capacity, a netizen who had traveled to xiaoxitian posted that the xiaoxitian scenic area is small in space and indeed has limited carrying capacity, and there is only one road in and out of the scenic area and the most core attractions. , and the width is narrow, making it difficult for two or three people to walk side by side. in response to the fact that the scenic spot is popular among tourists because of "black myth", the netizen also said, "there are many buddha statues inside, which is more suitable for devout believers to visit."

relevant information shows that xiaoxitian, also known as qianfo temple, was founded by zen master dongming in the seventh year of chongzhen in the ming dynasty (1634). it is a zen buddhist temple. on november 20, 1996, qianfo temple was announced by the state council of the people's republic of china as the fourth batch of national key cultural relics protection units. its important value is reflected in that it has filled a gap in the history of chinese buddhist colored sculpture art, and it can indeed be called the "chinese hanging sculpture art museum".
