Step away from the city's bustle and into the serene grounds of the White Cloud Temple, one of the oldest and most significant Taoist temples in China. Here, you can wander through tranquil courtyards, observe the daily life of resident monks with their distinctive topknotted hair, and admire the intricate details of historic halls built along a central axis. For a small entrance fee of ¥10, you can spend a couple of hours soaking in the peaceful, authentic atmosphere that feels worlds away from the more crowded tourist sites.
