2-day Jiuhua Mountain scenic spots guide, absolutely nothing missed!

Between working and striving for progress, I chose to offer incense... As a southerner, offering incense naturally means going to Jiuhua Mountain in Chizhou, which is one of the four famous Buddhist mountains and the practice ground of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, enshrining nine golden bodies, mainly for blessing a lifetime of peace and a happy home. It is also a national geological park with strange rocks and beautiful scenery, and under the 'equality for all beings' bonus, it is also a pet-friendly area, super suitable for taking dogs on trips.
