What should I pay attention to when traveling to Wutai Mountain?

Wutai Mountain is a holy place of Buddhism. Whether you believe in Buddhism or not, do as the Romans do, keep quiet and don't make any noise. You should respect the temple rules in the temple.

I came to Wutai Mountain just for sightseeing. Try to avoid vendors selling incense. Don't reach for it if you don't buy it. Sometimes it's hard to get rid of each other's entanglement

3. prepare small change. There are no shops and canteens between the five stops. You need small change for fasting, lodging and worship. However, if you are willing to put large denominations in the merit box, of course no one will object.

4. In the process of marching, you will meet many local people, and they will give you some protection gold cards to tell you that they have been lit up. In this case, you'd better not answer it, or you will get some money.

If you are hiking, you should bring the following things:

1, backpack: 30-40 liters (if camping, the capacity is larger), the bag must be shouldered, and it is best to have a belt and a rain cover, so that it is easy to walk and it can prevent rain. If you can, go directly to a professional mountaineering bag.

2, clothes: underwear refuses cotton fabrics, you must choose fast-drying clothes that do not absorb water. Wool must be brought. Even in the hot summer of July and August, the top of Wutai Mountain is very cold in the morning and evening. It's best to wear a coat of storm underwear, which can prevent wind and water. It is no exaggeration to bring a thin down jacket in spring and autumn and a thick down jacket in winter.

3, shoes and hats: high-top hiking shoes are the best choice, which can effectively protect the ankle and prevent sprains. When buying shoes, you must choose waterproof ones, and the size should be larger than usual. Never buy it just right or pinch your feet, because your feet will swell if you go too far. Hat requirements are not high, as long as it can prevent _, but it must have a windbreak rope, otherwise the enclave will be gone as soon as the wind blows.

4, trekking poles and knee pads: scientific and reasonable use of trekking poles can reduce the stress on legs and knees, and can exercise the arm strength of upper limbs and play a balance role. Climbing poles must use double poles, not single poles. Knee pads can effectively protect the knees when going downhill and prevent them from wearing out. They must be used for long-distance mountaineering, especially when going downhill.

5, ponchos and headlights: Wutai Mountain has a changeable climate, and it may encounter rainy and foggy weather at any time, so raincoats are essential. When buying a poncho, it is best to cover it with a backpack to prevent it from getting wet by rain. If you want to spend the night at the top of the mountain, headlights are essential, which is very useful when walking at night.

6. Food and drinking water: You can eat vegetarian food and replenish hot water in several temples at the top of the platform without bringing too much food. Prepare some high-calorie food for emergencies. In addition, bring a 500 ml thermos cup and drink some hot water along the way, which is very comfortable.

7. Drugs: cold medicine, antidiarrheal medicine, band-aid, sprain spray, gauze? Take a little and get ready.

8. Communication equipment and maps: At present, there are 4G signals in many places at the top of the platform, and a smart phone can do it, but you must ensure that the power is sufficient, and you can call for help at any time if you get lost or encounter danger.

9. Others: sunglasses, magic headscarf (the best protection against ultraviolet rays), camera, selfie stick sunscreen and so on.
