In the Ming Dynasty, Wudang Mountain was named "Da Yue" and "Xuan Yue" by the emperor, and was honored as "Royal Palace View". Wudang Mountain is known as the "crown of five mountains", among which "four famous mountains are all arched and five immortals worship the Sect".
Wudang Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain and the birthplace of Wudang Wushu. It is called "the unparalleled scenic spot in ancient times and the first fairy mountain in the world". Wudang Wushu is an important school of China Wushu. At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, Taoist Zhang Sanfeng founded Wu Tangzong.
Climatic characteristics of Wudang Mountain
Wudang Mountain is located in the northern subtropical monsoon climate zone, with a transition from north to south. From the rock of Danjiang reservoir to the top of Tianzhu peak, the vertical climate zone is obvious, and the local microclimate is rich and colorful, which can be roughly divided into three climatic zones. Upper floor: Chaotian Palace to Jinding, altitude1200-1612m, annual average temperature 7.7- 10.0℃, frost-free period 163- 194 days; Intermediate:
That is, the altitude from Zixiaogong to Chaotian Palace is 750- 1200m, the annual average humidity is 10.0- 12.0℃, the frost-free period is 194-222 days, and the precipitation is 95-1. The average annual temperature in the areas below 750 meters above sea level in Taizipo and Wudang Mountain Town is 12.8- 16.0℃, the frost-free period is 222-254 days, and the rainfall is 843-995 mm.
The reason for the mild temperature in the scenic spot is that Wudang Mountain is protected by Funiu Mountain, the east extension of Qinling Mountains, and there are undulating hills in the east, which slows down the cold air along the Han River in Nanxiangguan. It is regulated by the Han River, and the place near the water is warm in winter and cool in summer.
