❣ The standing statue of "South Sea Guanyin" is one of the new landmark buildings on Mount Putuo, completed on October 10, 1997. It has a total height of 33 meters and is made with imitation gold bronze precision casting. 🪷 From the entrance here, there is a shaded path winding towards the standing statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, with floor tiles carved with lotus flowers laid continuously in the middle of this path. It is also from here that many devout believers start to slowly move towards the Bodhisattva with three prostrations and nine bows. ⏰ Opening hours: 6:00-17:30 🗺 Transportation: 🚶🏻‍♀ Walking: If you are staying in the Longsha community and are in good shape, you can first walk to "Puji Temple", then along "Baibu Sand", "Purple Bamboo Forest", and "Refusing to Go to Guanyin Temple" to "South Sea Guanyin". If there is a long queue at the dock, you can also walk directly to "South Sea Guanyin". 🚌 Bus: Get off at the "Purple Bamboo Forest" station and walk there.

Mount Putuo, one of the four sacred mountains of Chinese Buddhism and a famous site of worship for the bodhisattva Guanyin, is known as the 'Buddhist Kingdom in the Sea and Sky' and 'Holy Land in the South Sea.' It is acclaimed as the 'foremost serene place in the human world'. There are numerous ancient temples on Mount Putuo, scattered throughout the mountains and forests, in caves, and along the paths, truly embodying the saying, 'Where the mountain bends, a temple hides; when the path ends, a monk appears'. Puji Temple With a long history and profound culture, surrounded by pagodas and pools, guarded by ancient trees, it is solemn and majestic, with a royal aura. Fayu Temple Built against the mountain, shaded by ancient trees, with dragon carvings on the walls and precious relics in the algae wells, it is quiet, elegant, and spiritually charming. Huiji Temple Atop the mountain, amidst dense forests, accompanied by strange rocks and occasional mists, it is a place where the fragrance of incense marks the pilgrimage, and the peak of the Buddha touches the sky. South Sea Guanyin With all the trees in full splendor, the glow of dawn reflecting off the waves, the treasured statue stands tall, with an imposing presence and a dignified Dharma appearance, showing compassion to all beings. Baotuo Lecture Temple Nestled between mountains and sea, with twin bays side by side, its towers soar into the sky, and its corridors follow suit, magnificent and splendid, spreading the Dharma and preaching the scriptures. Due to time and physical constraints, I did not visit the Purple Bamboo Grove, the Mahayana Zen Monastery, or Mount Luojia. I will pay my respects next time.

I entered Putuo Mountain Island at 9 am and played until 4 pm when I left the island. There were so many attractions that I didn't have time to visit, so I only went to Huiji Temple, Baotuo Lecture Temple, Fayu Temple, Qianbu Sand, and the South Sea Guanyin Buddha. The attractions are quite far from each other, and I had to take a bus back and forth. I don't recommend walking; it's too far and too tiring. If you want to visit all the attractions, I suggest staying on the island for one night. The taste of the coffee at the Xide Cafe at the top of the cableway is quite good! Then you can take off your shoes and walk on the beach, where there is a place to wash your feet. The South Sea Guanyin is also worth a visit, especially since it's so majestic and huge! Overall, Putuo Mountain is quite fun and worth a visit! Like and follow for more attractions ❤

Visiting Putuo Mountain not only allows you to cool off by the seaside but also to worship and pray for blessings, making it very suitable for family trips. For accommodation, you can stay on the island or choose a hotel near the Zhujiajian pier. The Yuelai Holiday Hotel we stayed at this time is very good, only a 10-minute walk from the pier, with clean and tidy rooms, a vegetarian buffet, and many dining options nearby. Pay attention to the Putuo Mountain scenic area's official WeChat account in advance to avoid queuing on-site to buy ferry tickets and entrance tickets (choose the right time slot). We took the ferry to Putuo Mountain early in the morning, and both entering and exiting the pier was done by scanning our ID cards. The ferry ride is not long, and those without seats can enjoy the sea breeze on the deck. After disembarking, head straight for the shuttle bus station, where destinations are indicated, and scan a QR code to buy a ticket. If you're physically fit, you can also walk to some attractions. Our route this time was Puji Zen Temple—Bamboo Forest—South Sea Guanyin Statue. We mostly walked, but the scenery along the way is beautiful, and you can stroll leisurely. Now is the season when hydrangeas are in full bloom, and the hydrangea path at the entrance of the Bamboo Forest is too beautiful, extending all the way to the entrance of the South Sea Guanyin. 📝Note tips: Puji Zen Temple is the largest temple with a bustling incense offering, so it's recommended to go early in the morning. Incense and flower tickets need to be paid in cash, and it's more convenient to bring your own lighter. The night view of the pier is also very beautiful, known as the 'Little Potala Palace.'

Location is good in the guesthouse area, rooms are clean and tidy, style is nice. Putuo Mountain, Zhoushan. Putuo Mountain Small Travel Guesthouse.
