Zhoushan

As the airplane descends towards Zhoushan Putuo Mountain International Airport, a glance out the window reveals the presence of the sea. Indeed, the Zhoushan archipelago is dotted with thousands of islands, surrounded by water; stepping out of the airport, you immediately feel the strong island atmosphere. Zhoushan's close relationship with the sea naturally means that seafood is abundant!

The four major Buddhist sacred sites in China are Mount Wutai in Shanxi, Mount Putuo in Zhejiang, Mount Emei in Sichuan, and Mount Jiuhua in Anhui. Among them, Mount Putuo in the Zhoushan Archipelago of Zhejiang is not only a place dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva(觀世音菩薩) but also a famous island scenic tourist destination. The island boasts beautiful scenery, numerous cultural relics, and historical sites that are unparalleled nationwide. To experience the charm of Putuo Mountain, plan for at least two to three days.

Mount Putuo, situated in Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province, is one of China's four major Buddhist mountains, renowned for its stunning natural scenery and deep Buddhist culture. This is the abode of Guanyin, the Goddess of Mercy, with incense burning throughout the year. It serves not only as a sacred site for pilgrims but also as a haven for nature and culture enthusiasts.
