Shanxi. Mount Wutai | A holy place where wishes are fulfilled

| A holy place for making wishes. ✔Wuye Temple: The most popular temple in Mount Wutai. It opens at 7:00 in summer and 7:30 in winter. Many people queue up in advance to compete for the top spot. Think silently in your mind: Nanmo Guangji Dragon King + name + date of birth + address + wish (if your wish comes true, you have to come and fulfill it). ✔Tayuan Temple: The White Pagoda is a landmark building in Wutai Mountain. It is said that the relics of the Buddha are enshrined. When going around the tower, remember to turn 3/7/9 times clockwise. ✔ Xiantong Temple: One of the five major Zen places in Mount Wutai, the first of all temples in the mountain, the oldest temple, and the leader of the Qing Temple (Chinese Buddhism) in Mount Wutai. ✔Bodhisattva Peak: The highest-level temple in Wutai Mountain, it is a royal Tibetan temple and the largest Tibetan Buddhist temple. Every morning, ☀ is sprinkled on the top of the Bodhisattva, emitting dazzling light. ✔Dailuoding: If you don’t climb Dailuoding, you are not considered a Taishan visitor. There are 1,080 steps to climb up, and there is a ropeway (it doesn’t seem to be available in winter). ✔Shuxiang Temple: Currently the largest statue of Manjusri Bodhisattva in the world, it is known as the Ancestral Court of Manjusri. ✔Fanxian Mountain: Walking from the parking lot of Shuxiang Temple, you need to walk on a rugged mountain road, which requires a certain amount of physical strength and perseverance. It takes nearly an hour to climb up and you can see the panoramic view of the entire core area of ​​the temple. 🪷About transportation Private 🚗 entry requires reservation on the official account in advance, and bus 🚌 can be reserved on the Jinchangxing official account. 🪷About accommodation Mount Wutai recommends that everyone live near Guanghua Temple. The transportation is convenient and the scenic spots are also very close. If time permits, everyone must come and experience the sunrise on Dongtai. At the top of Dongtai at an altitude of 2,796 meters, you can see thousands of golden lights shining on the sea of ​​clouds, mountain peaks, earth, and the golden statues of the Golden Palace reflecting each other! 🙏Seeking wealth and career: Wuye Temple 🙏Seeking marriage and partial wealth: Fanxian Mountain 🙏Study and seek wisdom: Shuxiang Temple, Dawenju Temple 🙏Looking for heirs: Nanshan Temple, Mingyue Pond, Guanyin Cave, Shuxiang Temple, Wuye Temple 🙏Pray for blessings and disaster relief: Bodhisattva Temple, Guanghua Temple, Dailuoding Temple, Zhenhai Temple, Xiantong Temple 📍Famous springs in Mount Wutai: Longquan Temple, Water Temple, Guanyin Cave 📍Watch the sunrise: from the top of Dongtai 📍Watch the night view: Guanghua Temple 🪷Additional fee temples: Bodhisattva Temple💰10, Tayuan Temple💰10, Xiantong Temple💰10, Dailuoding💰8, Guanyin Cave💰5, Jifu Temple💰3
