Although not many people go to Wutai Mountain every winter, there are still many people going to visit this scenic spot every year. The following small series will introduce you to Wutai Mountain in winter, so you can know about it. 1. How to get to Wutai Mountain in winter

Wutai Mountain has three mountain passes, namely, the northern line, the southern line and the western line. Both the northern line and the western line enter the scenic spot after the mountain is turned over by Panshan Highway. In winter, there is snow or ice on Wutai Mountain, which affects the driving safety, while the southern line enters the scenic spot along the highway along Qingshui River, and the road is flat. Therefore, in winter, Wutai Mountain can only take the southern line.

tips:

winter entrance fee for Wutai Mountain and small entrance fee for the temple (November 1-March 31)

entrance fee for 12 yuan (half-price ticket for 6 yuan, journalist's ID/military officer's ID/free admission for people over 6 years old)

entrance fee for the temple (1 yuan in Bodhisattva, 1 yuan in Xiantong Temple, 1 yuan in Tayuan Temple, 8 yuan in Deluoding). 2. What should I pay attention to when I drive to Wutai Mountain in winter?

It is recommended to bring a snow chain to Wutai Mountain in winter (in case I meet snow angels);

Dogs will run out from time to time on the scenic roads. Please be careful to avoid unnecessary troubles.

driving at night, outside the core scenic spot, the road lighting is not good (and the northern line pulls more coal carts at night);

There are two gas stations in the scenic spot, namely, the expressway and the traffic lights in the scenic spot. Please let your self-driving friends know.

parking in the scenic spot is free, and there are mainly three free parking lots (Shuxiang Temple Parking Lot, Bodhisattva Top Parking Lot and Jinjie Temple Parking Lot). Accommodation hotels generally have parking spaces, and the scenic spots will be limited in peak season, which does not exist in winter.

The exit of Shizui (Wutai Mountain Scenic Area Station) is still 25 kilometers away from the core scenic area, and it takes about 3 minutes by car. Please pay attention to the signs beside the highway and slow down, especially at the corners. (The speed measurement of Wutai Mountain is definitely an eagle eye, and there are mobile speed measurements from time to time. ) 3. What is the highlight of the winter tour of Wutai Mountain

In addition to visiting the grand temple buildings and feeling the Buddhist culture with a long history, you can also see the white snow on the top of the platform. Against the backdrop of snow, the red walls, golden tiles, curling kitchen smoke and morning bells and drums of the temple have a unique charm. This is not seen in other seasons.

Wutai Mountain is relatively high above sea level, and the town is not big. The air is fresh, and there is definitely no smog. In the sunny winter, it feels very close to the world. It is a good environment to breathe pure air and feel the emptiness of heaven and earth here. 4. How to get to the main temples in Wutai Mountain

The five most famous temples in Wutai Mountain (Shuxiang Temple, Wuye Temple, Tayuan Temple, Xiantong Temple and Bodhisattva Peak) are built from low to high, and they are built on the mountain. On one axis, they are usually visited from bottom to top in peak season.

To visit Wutai Mountain in winter, I personally suggest that you go to Bodhisattva Peak (the highest point) first, enter through the back door, and visit from top to bottom (wearing more clothes in winter makes it inconvenient to move), which also saves physical strength. 5. What should I do if I want to go on stage in winter?

Going on stage, also known as "Dachaotai", is to worship Manjusri Bodhisattva on five platforms.

The five terraces have different views, and the other four terraces are not allowed to go on stage in winter, except Dongtai, which has no checkpoints and is open to tourists free of charge.

Wanghai Mountain in Dongtai is the second highest place in Wutai Mountain (2795 meters above sea level). The scenery on the mountain is particularly good. From below, Dongtai has a feeling of being on the clouds, and it is the place to watch the sunrise.

It takes about 4 minutes to drive from the core scenic spot to Dongtai, with 2 kilometers of continuous uphill and downhill and bumpy dirt roads. Friends who want to experience the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky. can go on stage to watch the sunrise, but they must pay attention to driving safety! (In winter, the trolley will not operate, so you need to find a local private car. The cost varies from 1-15 yuan per person per trip, depending on the number of people). 6. What scenic spots are worth visiting in Wutai Mountain?

In addition to the temples in the core scenic spot, there are also some temples such as Buddha Cave, Zhenhai Temple, Nanshan Temple, Longquan Temple, Puhua Temple, Mingyuechi and Bishan Temple that can be visited in winter (Jinge Temple and Qingliang Temple are on the west line with Panshan Road, which is not recommended).

I mainly recommend the Buddha Cave here, because there are few people in winter and it is convenient to pay homage. During the peak season, the temple is full of tourists from all directions, which is a sea of people, because everyone wants to enter the Buddha's Cave (a naturally formed cave with a diameter of half a meter, from which people get out), symbolizing the rebirth of the Buddha's Mother. According to the time, about 35 people enter the cave every hour and close the temple at 7 pm. It is no exaggeration to say that there are many people waiting to enter the cave in the peak season. This kind of situation does not exist in winter, and the Buddha mother can be reborn leisurely. 7. What are the Buddhist activities in Wutai Mountain in winter?

On the 17th day of November of the lunar calendar (Christmas Day of Altofo)

On the 8th day of December of the lunar calendar (Buddha's Day of Buddhism)

Since the first day of the first month, various prayer ceremonies have been held in various monasteries to pray for world peace, national prosperity and people's security.

Many good men and women also have the custom of burning incense on the first day of the first month to pray for peace and good luck in the coming year. 8. Is the cableway in Wutai Mountain still open in winter?

Wutai Mountain has two cableways, the Deluoding and the Buddha Cave. The Fomudong cableway stopped running in November, and began to operate in April next year. Deluoding depends on the number of tourists (generally, there are many tourists on weekends, so it will operate)

PS. Both scenic spots can ride horses (operated by local individuals). Reference price: Deluoding 4 one-way and 7 round trip, Fomo Cave. 9. How to stay in Wutai Mountain in winter

The seasonality of Wutai Mountain is obvious. After entering the traditional off-season, about 6% of hotels will close down seasonally due to fewer tourists, but please rest assured that as long as you book in advance, there will be basically no room reservation failure.

personally, you can book a hotel near Taihuai Town in the center of the scenic spot, which is more convenient to play, and the price is only half of that in the peak season, which is great value.

Many local economical private hotels have been upgraded and transformed into floor heating, and they are also relatively clean. According to the location and conditions, the price of each room ranges from 1-15 yuan. 1. How to eat in Wutai Mountain in winter

Some restaurants in Wutai Mountain are closed in winter, but there are few passengers, so it is very convenient to eat in the opened restaurants, and the price is cheaper than in the peak season.

Personally, all kinds of hotels in Wutai Mountain generally have restaurants, where you can stay and eat, which are more affordable than restaurants facing the street outside. Chefs receive tourists from all over the world all the year round, and their skills are still relatively reliable. The level of mass consumption is generally 4-5 yuan per person per meal.

Wutai Mountain vegetarian restaurant is very famous, and ordinary tourists will taste it when they go there. There are many vegetarian restaurants in Wutai Mountain, and I think three of them are good in taste, so I recommend them to you:

Personal opinion: the location of a bright lamp is the best, the price is a little more affordable, and the dishes in Jingxinzhai restaurant are the best, and the consumers in the three stores are all above 1 yuan. 11. What should I pay attention to when visiting Wutai Mountain in winter?

In winter, besides keeping warm and paying attention to the temple visit, there is also a small taboo: don't worship Buddha with your hands folded in gloves. 12. What other tips are there for visiting Wutai Mountain in winter?

1 In Wutai Mountain, you must be careful of black tour guides, that is, those who say that they will show you around several places at no cost or with little money. When you go to Wuye Temple to burn incense, there will be locals who will teach you how to burn incense and what the ceremony is (never mind, you will ask for money after burning incense).

If you are released from the scenic spot, you will be given some notes or red cloth, so don't pay attention to them. You will ask for money after receiving them (although the money is not much, it is not comfortable).
