Wutai Mountain is the Dojo of Manjusri Bodhisattva and one of the four famous Buddhist mountains. It is named after the sudden appearance of five peaks in the east, west, north and south. There are many places of interest in the scenic area of 376 square kilometers, which is a famous tourist attraction in the world.
As time was tight, we only went to China and Thailand. The most famous in China and Thailand is the Bodhisattva Top, which was built in the northern Emperor Xiaowen's period and is known as the Lama Temple, also known as the Academy of Scholars. The Buddha statues in the temple are solemn and lifelike. In the sound of Buddha music, many tourists fell to the ground and knelt down to make a wish. I also made a small wish quietly, hoping that my mother would take me to Wutai Mountain next time. I especially like the "Great Manjusri Hall", where seven Manjusri Bodhisattvas, large and small, are enshrined. They are magnificent and vivid. According to the monk, Manjusri Bodhisattva is the first wise bodhisattva, and worshipping Manjusri Bodhisattva can bless my prosperity. My mother asked me for an amulet, hoping that I would be smart, safe and healthy.
Climbing to the top of Bodhisattva, you can see temples at the foot of the mountain, cigarettes around, and tourists crawling along the mountain road have become small ants. Looking up, the mountains are covered with snow and white clouds, as if they were in a fairy tale fairyland.
When I went down the mountain, my uncle and aunt bought me many souvenirs, and I was very happy. Oh, I'm so glad you came today!

Jiuhua Mountain has a low latitude and is not too cold. It can be visited all year round. So is Mount Putuo, but it's best in spring when everything is thriving.

After the Wutai Mountain scenic area is wet, carefully wipe it with a handkerchief, and there will be handwriting similar to seal script on the surface of the cliff, but the water is dry and the words are hidden. Someone once removed the stone layer from the epidermis, and as a result, the words could be erased from the lower layer. If there are different levels, the words are different.
