It is a peaceful place to go for worship. The landscaping is beautiful. Lots of walking and climbing too. Wear a pair of good walking shoe.

Temple of the Azure Clouds (Biyun Si) is just near the north gate of Fragrant Hill (Xiangshan Park), about 45mins drive out of Beijing. If you are interested in Buddhism & some of its hstory then this is a wonderfully quiet place to do it. Inside you can find the temple of 500 Arhats, which really is a powerful place to encounter so many deep human emotions in carvings. Best to go in the morning before the afternoon crowds. There's a nice little tea house inside to help in taking things slowly & also a great restaurant on the left as you walk out the front gates on exit.
