A Tibetan Buddhist monastery on the south bank of the Yellow River, built into a hillside terrace with views over the river valley and the county seat.
Zhenzhu Monastery sits on the east side of Guide county seat. It is a long-established Tibetan Buddhist monastery, built into the hillside with layered halls. From the terrace in front of the temple, you can look down over the Yellow River valley, the county seat, and the Danxia cliffs across the river.
