Mt. Jiu Hua






We headed to Mt. Jiu Hua, one of China's four sacred Buddhist mountains. Due to its importance in the Buddhist religion, it has attracted many pilgrims and a large number of temples have been built in its vicinity. We visited a 200-year-old Zhan Chan Lin Temple with its gold-plated and wooden statues and Qiyuan Temple, largest of the sacred Jiu Hua temples.
