Wutai Mountain

Last month, I took a trip to Wutai Mountain, and found that there were lots of travelers gathering at the train station when I arrived. It turned out July and August is the best time to travel Wutai Mountain, where the air is exceptionally cool, moody mountains make the dojo of the No.1 of the four famous Buddhist mountains into a fresh destination for “heat shelters + meditation + wishing + mountaineering + trekking”.

My wishing place is precisely the well-known Wuye Temple on Mount Wutai. Wuye Temple is rather small, but there are indeed many pilgrims in Wuye Temple, which really made me shock.

It is said that there are some ways to do wishing: burning incense early in the morning in the temple, hanging plaque, sent robes, while the most solemn manner is Wuye seeing theater.
