Wutai Mountain Travel Guide 2022 Wutai Mountain Travel Notes

I believe many friends have heard of Mount Wutai, but it is not particularly famous. This place is still worth visiting. Below, the editor will tell you some interesting things about Wutai Mountain and its travel notes. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the editor.

1. Simple travel notes

First of all, I drove here from Beijing in the morning. We set off early in the morning and arrived near Wutai Mountain near noon. If you drive, it is strongly recommended that you go to Wuke Temple. Wuke Temple is on the southwest side of Mount Wutai, just near Mount Wutai. It's only an hour's drive.

This is a Tang Dynasty building located in Beixing Temple, known as the Buddha's Light in Asia. When I go there, I don't need a ticket. At that time, Japanese experts said that there were no wooden buildings in China before the Tang Dynasty. Lin and Liang Sicheng discovered this Bukoji, which ended the arbitrary judgment of Japanese experts on us. This also makes this temple famous for its Asian Buddha Light.

There is a tree in Guang Temple, which is hundreds of years old. The appearance of the temple is full of typical Tang Dynasty architectural style, and the shape is very beautiful. However, an hour’s visit is enough without taking any photos.

The next step is to go to Taihuai Town in Mount Wutai. About an hour away. In fact, dozens of kilometers are not too far, but there is a speed limit, and the scenery along the way is really worth appreciating.

Normal tickets are 135 yuan, with various certificates, such as military certificates, half price. To catch up with the epidemic this time, you only need to make a reservation on the official WeChat, no tickets are required. It’s really heart-wrenching!

The following are some things to note when entering the mountains. Very important~!

First, regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter, you must bring a thick coat. Needless to say, in winter, you must bring a cotton coat, because whether it is from Xiao Chao Terrace to Bodhisattva Summit or Da Chao Terrace, they are all very high. Poster top, strong wind will definitely blow through you.

The second is accommodation. Generally, people who go to Wutai Mountain stay in Taihuai Town. The accommodation is roughly divided into two areas, one is far away from the central scenic spot and the other is close.

Talk about the difference. It is more convenient to eat and shop away from the central scenic spots. Besides, there is a shuttle bus to the central scenic spot the next day, so there will be no delay. However, accommodation areas near scenic spots are more expensive, but taking Hanting as an example, it is only 80 yuan more in the off-season, because I usually stay near the central scenic spot for two days. Have breakfast at the hotel in the morning and walk 5 minutes to the scenic spot.

On the other hand, the time from leaving Hokukoji Temple to staying at your hotel is usually around the afternoon, so you can have lunch!

Take a break. It must be dark at night. It’s really invincible to go to Guanghua Temple. The famous temples on the Internet are worth a visit whether you are visiting or taking a walk.
