【Ticket Tips】
√ Ticket price: 40 RMB (buying online is faster)
√ Keep your ticket as you need it to enter and exit Manting Park
√ The ticket office service area offers "free storage"
√ Entry stops at 5 PM; Grand Buddha Temple closes at 6 PM. You need to wear a shawl or jacket to enter the temple.
√ After 5 PM, evening tickets cost 200+ RMB, including a song and dance bonfire party. Personally, it’s not worth it, but if you really want to go, you can ask local drivers who may charge just 100+ RMB.
