~What you need to know before visiting Lama Temple~
✨Buy a ticket online a few days in advance, so you will not stand in a huge line under the scorching sun
✨The best time to visit the temple is in the morning, so you can see many interesting rituals (especially on holidays)
✨Be sure to take incense sticks at the entrance, they are free (included in the ticket price) so you can feel the whole atmosphere more
✨Buy souvenirs only in the temple, in the surrounding shops the prices are almost 2-4 times more expensive
✨ In no case do not try to touch the offerings on the tables (flowers, fruits, sweets) and especially money
✨ After Lama Temple, be sure to go for a walk along the streets near the temple. Here, in addition to several other beautiful temples, there is Fangjia hutong, where you can eat street food and more, buy a lot of interesting things. Or take a quiet stroll through Ditan Park and admire the ginkgo trees
