Has anyone been to Mount Wutai? Are there any attractions worth visiting?

I am from Shanxi, and Mount Wutai is the pride of every Shanxi person! I've been there many times and never tire of it! It's an honor to introduce it to you! Because the altitude is relatively high and it is particularly cool, visiting Mount Wutai in summer is a good choice! Mount Wutai is named after the five peaks in the east, west, south, north and middle. However, the scenery is very beautiful. It is a famous Buddhist resort both at home and abroad, and is the monastery of Manjushri Bodhisattva. There are dozens of large and small temples and courtyards on the mountain, roughly divided into two types: those for monks and those for lamas, which are rich in content. I will select a few representative ones to introduce to you. 1. Dailuoding - also called Big Luoding. It is built on the top of a mountain. Standing on Dailuoding and looking down, the extraordinary scenery of Mount Wutai is so beautiful that there is a saying that "If you don't climb Dailuoding, you won't count." "Taishan guest". 2. Bodhisattva Peak - also called the Great Manjusri Temple, is located on the Lingjiu Peak of Mount Wutai. It is magnificent, dazzling and has the characteristics of a royal palace. It is the largest lamasery temple in Mount Wutai. 3. Tayuan Temple - It is located at the Big White Pagoda on Mount Wutai. When we usually see the introduction of Wutai Mountain, we can see a pagoda that looks like a gourd, which is what I call the Big White Pagoda. The Big White Pagoda covers the mountains and rivers and points directly to the blue sky. It is the landmark building of Mount Wutai. 4. Wuye Temple - The courtyard commonly known as Wuye Temple is called Wanfo Pavilion. It is located on the east side of the mountain gate of Tayuan Temple. The courtyard is not very big, but it is well-known far and near. I heard that making wishes is very effective, so there are constant pilgrims all year round. . There are many things to pay attention to when worshiping Buddha and making wishes, and one of the most important ones is time. On the first and fifteenth day of every month, Wuye Temple is the busiest time. Starting from 0:00 in the morning, people worshiping Buddha and making wishes are packed with people. The queue of people waiting is several kilometers long, and the intensity is unimaginable. Other scenic spots are also very beautiful, such as Baiyun Temple, Xiantong Temple, Zhenhai Temple, Guanghua Temple, Qingliang Temple, Puhua Temple, Guanyin Cave, Guangren Temple, Nanshan Temple, Nanchan Temple, Cifu Temple, Fomu Cave , Zhulin Temple, Yuanzhao Temple, Sanquan Temple, Baohua Temple, Shangshancai Cave, Xiashancai, Writing Cliff and so on. If you have time and live quietly for a while, you may have a very different experience from other travels.
