Visiting the Songzanlin Monastery

But climbing the steps is the only way to close see the monastery. After buying the ticket, a tourist bus will take you to the front of the monastry in 5min. From there, you need to climb 147 stairs to the main halls and other must-sees. It is not a lot, so you may have a try. The only problem is that the gradient is a little bit tough for the elderly. But you can have a rest on the way. I do highly recommend you to visit it.
