Putuoshan

One of the four scared Buddhist Mountains of China, Putuoshan is awe inspiring with jagged peaks, ancient temples and precious temples. Putuoshan is on an island in the East China Sea and the mountain is surrounded by beautiful beaches. Stand atop the mountain peak and gaze out to the flotillas of fishing boats going about their business.

Many of the temples atop Putuoshan are dedicated to the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy, Guanyin including the 33m tall statue at Zizhulin.

Putuoshan is accessible by boat from either Ningbo or Shanghai.
