Wuta (Zhenjue) Temple, Beijing

Wuta Temple holds a quiet corner of autumn in Beijing. Ancient trees glow golden, their leafy crowns spreading beneath the clear sky. Leaves cast delicate shadows across the Buddhist niches, while five pagodas rise above a square-shaped base. A breeze stirs the golden leaves, sending them drifting gently to the ground. Rows of stone steles stand quietly, blending the charm of antiquity with the beauty of autumn. Light and shadow drift across the courtyard, scattering gold underfoot as the city’s noise fades beyond the walls. Come to Wuta Temple this autumn and see golden ginkgoes framing the centuries-old pagodas.
