ShanXi Wutai Mountain

Wutai Mountain is located in Wutai County, northeast of Shanxi Province, with an average elevation of over 1,000 meters. The highest point is Beimen Peak, which is 3058 meters above sea level. It is called the “North China Roof”. The Wutai Mountain is about 300 kilometers long. Because the five peaks are like the five pillars of the sky, the rise of the land rises and stands tall. The peak is flat, so it is called Wutai. Because the climate on the mountain is cold, I still don’t know the heat in the summer, so I don’t call it Qingliang Mountain. It is a tourist area that integrates natural scenery, historical relics, ancient art, Buddhist culture, folk customs and summer recreation.

Wutai Mountain is a well-known Buddhist resort in China and abroad. It is the dojo of Manjushri, and Wutai Mountain is the first of the four famous Buddhist mountains in terms of its long history and scale. It is called the Golden Five, Wutai Mountain, and more. It is also known as the world’s five major Buddhist shrines in the Lumbini Garden in Nepal, Luyeyuan in India, Bodh Gaya, and Khlong Naga. It is famous in Japan, India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Nepal and other countries. The Wutaishan Temple was built in the Han Ming Emperor. Due to the prosperity of the “Wenshu Mantra” in the Tang Dynasty, there were more than 360 temples. In the Qing Dynasty, with the introduction of Lamaism into Mount Wutai, there were various Qing and Huang 2 temples. The area surrounded by the five tops of Wutai Mountain is called Taichung, and the periphery is called Taiwan.

It is said that Wutai was the earliest Taoist site. The Taoist Temple called Wutai Mountain as the Zifu Mountain and once built the Zifu Temple. “Qingliangshanzhi” said that when Buddhism’s Manjushri first came to China, he lived in a stone basin, and the stone basin was in the Taoist view of Taoism. This shows that Wutai Mountain was home to Taoism..
