1, Foputuo Mountain-Guanyin, the holy mountain on the sea, can't go.
Highlight: Fusai Temple is the temple with the most Buddhist activities on Mount Putuo. During the Spring Festival, there will be a master who will join the welcoming group to receive pilgrims from all sides and guide the specific ceremony of offering Buddha incense.
Putuo Mountain is located in the southeast of Zhoushan Islands, and it is also known as the four famous Buddhist mountains in China with Wutai, Emei and Jiuhua. Known as the most efficacious "Guanyin Dojo" in China, it was named Haitian Buddhist Kingdom and Nanhai Holy Land. There are more than 30 temples on the mountain, including Blessing Saiji, Fayu Temple and Huiji Temple. Ancient trees are towering in the mountains, and Sanskrit sounds are intertwined with the waves. "If you win the mountains and seas, you should push Putuo". Kang Youwei has poems to praise.
Key words:
The best embodiment of Putuo temperament is Zizhulin Scenic Area. The scenic spots of Zizhulin include Zizhu Temple, Kannonji, Yin Chao Cave and Guanyin Buddha in Nanhai. Zizhulin Temple, located in Yin Chao Cave at the eastern foot of Shuangfeng Mountain, is said to be the residence of Guanyin Bodhisattva. It faces the sea with its back to the mountains, simple and elegant. It turned out that it refused to go to the former site of Kannonji, formerly known as "Tingchao Temple".
Legend has it that Japanese monks begged the Five Guanyin Bodhisattva to return to Japan, passing through Putuo Mountain, and the ship was blocked by waves. Thinking that the Bodhisattva didn't want to go east, he landed and left a statue of Buddha, which was enshrined by the islanders. Later, he built a temple and said he wouldn't go to Kannonji. So the Bodhisattva refused to go to Guanyin Bodhisattva. This is the earliest temple in Putuo, and it is also a must-see place for holy monks.
1997, the giant open-air bronze statue "Nanhai Guanyin" was completed and became the landmark building of Putuo Mountain. This statue stands in Longwan Mountain at the southern end of Putuo Mountain in the south of Zizhulin Scenic Area. The total height of the bronze statue is 33m, of which the lower platform is13m, the Buddha statue is18m, and the lotus stand is 2m. The Buddha statue contains more than 6500 grams of gold and is the largest bronze statue of Guanyin in the world today. It is said that 1997, 101October 30th, when the giant Buddha was completed and opened, it kept raining. Unexpectedly, when it is auspicious, the sun shines and the Buddha shines. If asked about the mystery, the Buddha said, "Don't say, don't say." The reliefs on the walls on both sides of Guanyin tell the story of Xuanzang's westward journey and Jian Zhen's eastward journey.
I don't want to go to Kannonji, built on a reef, and the sea beats the reef. It is said that this is also the origin of "Haitian Buddha Country".
2. Smart Emei Mountain-Buddhism is unique.
Highlight: During the Spring Festival, temples in Emei Mountain will hold various activities such as blessing, lighting and releasing people to celebrate the New Year with tourists.
Mount Emei written by Jin Yong is a woman's mountain, gentle and beautiful, but sharp and cold. No matter whether there is a Zhou Zhiruo or an extinct teacher here, this mountain is always desirable as long as it belongs to Emei. Emei Mountain is the Dojo of Samantabhadra, and it is considered that Emei is the place where Samantabhadra gives lectures.
The development of Buddhism in the past two thousand years has left a rich Buddhist cultural heritage for Mount Emei, which has made many eminent monks and great virtues, and gradually made Mount Emei a Buddhist holy place with far-reaching influence in China and even the world. Emei Mountain Buddhism belongs to Mahayana Buddhism, and monks and nuns are mostly disciples of Lin Jizong and Cao Dongzong. The Buddhist music in Emei Mountain is colorful and unique.
There are about 300 monks and nuns in the mountain and nearly 30 temples, including Bao Guo Temple, Khufu Temple, Yin Qing Pavilion, Hongchunping Temple, Xianfeng Temple, Xixiangchi Scenic Area, Jinding Huazang Temple Temple and Wannian Temple. The temples in Zhong Ni include Khufu Temple, Leiyin Temple, Shanjue Temple, Chunyang Temple and Shui Sheng Pavilion. The Buddha statues in the temple include clay sculpture, wood carving and carving.
The Pu Xian Golden Statue with Ten Faces on Mount Emei is the highest golden Buddha in the world and the first artistic model of Pu Xian with Ten Faces. One of the "Ten Directions" is a metaphor for Pu Xian's Ten Wishes, and the other symbolizes the ten directions of Buddhism, namely, east, south, west, north, southeast, southwest, northeast, northwest and up and down. It is a metaphor for the infinite wishes of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, covering three generations of sentient beings. Pu Xian's ten portraits are divided into three layers with different expressions, representing ten kinds of human mentality.
If you don't arrive at Mount Emei, in the eyes of many people, it is a trip to Mount Emei for nothing. Therefore, whether on foot or by car, Jinding is a must. In winter, Mount Emei, Jinding is even more magnificent, because whether it is sunset, sunrise or magnificent sea of clouds, it can only be seen here.

The scenery of Jiuhua Mountain is a natural landscape painting, hanging in the clouds, and the flowing pen and ink tells the nature of Zen. Buddha said that floating life is like dust, and nine lotus flowers are used to scattered life. Many people come here to breed their own fantasy imagination in the Zen of lotus, and often forget their confusion as passers-by.
Jiuhua Mountain is the Dojo of Bodhi Bodhisattva, a great wish that "all beings can prove bodhisattva, and hell will not become Buddha". Jin Qiaojue, a famous monk, climbed Jiuhua Mountain and devoted himself to seclusion for decades, at the age of 99. Three years later, his body was lifelike, and many monks traced his date of birth and many signs, and determined that he was the incarnation of Bodhisattva. So, a stone tower was built, and the body was enshrined in it, and it was called "Bodhisattva Diksitigarbha", and Jiuhua Mountain became the Dojo of Bodhisattva Diksitigarbha. For thousands of years, the incense in the temple has been very prosperous.
