Beautiful island of Putuo

Located in the eastern islands (Zhoushan Archipelago) of Zhejiang Province, Putuoshan Mountain (Mount Putuo, Putuo Mountain) is the abode of Avalokitesvara and one of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains in China with Mount Emei in Sichuan, Mount Jiuhua in Anhui and Mount Wutai in Shanxi. The sand in One Hundred Steps Golden Beach is golden, pure and soft, just like a carpet. The waves splash on the beach day after day, making a rhythmed sound ceaselessly. The board water with little rocky reefs is a wonderful attraction for swimming-lovers. Swimming is only allowed in daytime between May and August. It will be more pleasant to walk on the beach barefoot. Stepping in the tender sand and letting the waves touch your feet, you will be more than comfortable and relaxed. When night comes, the pure sky bestrewed with resplendent star will give a life-long memory.

PutuoShan

This island is filled with temples and people come here to pray. Best day to visit is not on the weekend. We came on Thursday and it was already lots of people, but it was not packed and crowded. As we were leaving the island on Friday, people were starting to arrive and it was very crowded. To get around the island, it is not hard. There are shuttle buses that you can catch, and pay as you go. On the bus station, it tells you the next bus destination, so you won't be lost. Really enjoyed the view from the cable car where you can have a bird's eye view looking out the island. It is not a mainstream tourist destination, but it is still good to visit! #solstice #urbanexplorer #summervacation #beachvacation #chinatravel #summervacation#beachvacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Mount Putuo, truly a journey worth the effort

Mount Putuo, a sacred place of Buddhism, a pure land on earth. Stepping onto this island is like entering a secluded fairyland. The mountains are lush, the sea is clear, ancient temples are hidden away, and the sound of bells and chimes cleanses the soul.

Putuo Mountain Scenic Area

Speaking of Zhoushan and Putuo Mountain, I consider myself quite authoritative, having visited three times with different people. Each experience was unforgettable, and each trip felt like a spiritual journey. Traveling with friends, family, or colleagues, fully relaxing is really great. I hope the experiences I share can help everyone who loves traveling just like me. The most recent trip was with my best friend to Zhoushan, where we had fun for 3 days, and it was the happiest one. On average, each person spent just over 800 yuan, which is a lot less than my first visit. This time, through a friend's recommendation, we found a local quality free travel service in Putuo Mountain. They took us around, and our hotel, tickets, and meals were all arranged by them. They were very humorous and patient, saving us a lot of trouble. Most importantly, Xiao Hui can plan the essential attractions for you according to your time and preferences, saving you from taking many detours. Highly recommended.

Putuo Mountain | Between working and advancing, I choose to offer incense

I have been coming to Putuo Mountain for the third consecutive year! This year, I booked my accommodation half a month in advance to reserve the long-awaited Ruyi hotel, which was always too popular before. The hotel will call the day before check-in to ask about the approximate time of arrival on the island and arrange for a vehicle to pick up from the pier. Although the hotel's facade is not big, the whole environment is quiet and full of Zen. Moreover, the front desk upgraded our room type, and the room window is right by the pool. The room facilities are a bit old, but you can tell they are well-maintained. The bathroom has a wet and dry separation. The hotel is very close to Puji Temple, about a 5-minute walk. Coming out of Puji Temple and walking a few hundred meters on the left-hand side is the popular Xide Coffee, which is very tasty . If you want to go to Fayu Temple and South Sea Guanyin, take the bus from the parking lot of Puji Temple. For dinner, you can go to the Yuanzhiyuanwei Restaurant opposite the hotel, or walk a little further to the Jujube Tree Vegetarian Restaurant, both are quite delicious. In the evening, you can light incense and copy scriptures in the room, or go see the hotel's 'little museum'. The next day when checking out, the hotel apologized for the noise from the room next door the previous night. We didn't expect that they had been paying attention and reminding the next room, which was a big plus. If you need to worship Buddha during your trip, you can choose to store your luggage at the front desk, or contact the hotel to have them deliver your luggage to the pier.

Once again, I find myself at Mount Putuo | Strolling through the small city of Ningbo and the little islands of Zhoushan in the springtime

| Strolling through the small city of Ningbo and the little islands of Zhoushan in the springtime. The mountain is in the sea, and the sea is at the foot of the mountain - This is my second visit to the Putuo Temple in Zhoushan, and I took some time to wander around Ningbo. This trip was a bit different from the previous one; amidst the leisure, I encountered the beauty of the small city and the small island. - ✈️Transportation Sleeper train from Wuhan to Ningbo, head to Juxian for breakfast with rice cakes in the morning (the breakfast place is within walking distance from the station), then take a bath at Riyue Bathhouse (after all, I spent a night on the train, everyone should check it out, the price is really surprising). You can also consider flying to Ningbo, as the Ningbo airport is quite close, or you can choose to fly directly to the Putuoshan airport in Zhoushan. But since you're here, it's worth taking a stroll around Ningbo. - Delicacies Having been here twice, I really feel that the local delicacies are best in Ningbo. After all, Zhoushan is generally about seafood, but now fresh seafood is available everywhere, so it's not like it has to be Zhoushan. Let's talk about Ningbo's food. ⭐Quzhou No.1 Local Cuisine Restaurant: Quzhou green tomatoes fried with cured meat, the cured meat is crystal clear like a prism, and the oil fragrance is full. ⭐Yongji: Sweet-tasting, suitable for friends from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, the four-happiness gluten is quite interesting. ⭐Ninghai Seafood Noodles: The boss is very enthusiastic, and it has the Ningbo flavor (after eating, you can walk to the Drum Tower) ⭐Lingmei Seafood Porridge: A well-designed small shop, the products also have that tone (next to Moon Lake, go for a coffee after eating) - ☕Coffee Ningbo's coffee shops are surprisingly good, with different styles that you can't see in other cities ⭐Coffee and cigarettes: A small, clean shop with style, the bar was full of people when I arrived, and the owner was busy. ⭐Click Pharmacy Beast: A pretty cool coffee shop, styled like an abstract painter, and they also have coffee for fitness enthusiasts, haha ⭐Yaoxing Street Tea Drink: Located inside the national medicine hall, it's nice to drink some Chinese-style tea, and the interior is really good-looking, with a well-captured Chinese style. - 🚌From Zhoushan to Mount Putuo We took the bus to Zhoushan at night, staying by the seaside at Shenjiamen, and there's a luggage storage at Ningbo station. The bus station is right next to Ningbo Railway Station, which is really convenient. We took the bus after 3 PM to watch the sunset over the sea on the bus. We stayed overnight at Shenjiamen and didn't go to Zhujiajian to take a boat this time. Instead, we took a boat from the Banshengdong Passenger Terminal at Shenjiamen, where there are fewer people. After arriving at the Putuoshan pier, we bought the Putuoshan tickets on the spot. - Once we arrived at Mount Putuo, the weather cleared up, and I got to see a different side of Mount Putuo under the sunshine. The Baibu Sand Beach opposite the Puji Temple is still so comfortable. A brief escape from the crowds, the beauty and comfort of Mount Putuo are all given by this beach. - This time, the itinerary started with a visit to the South Sea Guanyin, then to the Puji Temple and the Fayu Zen Temple. The weather was good on the weekend, and there were really a lot of people. It's still important to emphasize getting up the mountain early. Now, to take the bus on Mount Putuo, you have to queue up. To avoid delaying the trip, remember to get up early in the morning. If you plan to stay overnight in a guesthouse on the mountain, you'll have more time. I saw some new hotels under construction, so there should be more accommodation options on Mount Putuo in the future. - 🚌From Mount Putuo back to Ningbo On the way back, we still took a boat directly to the Zhujiajian pier, because there is a bus that goes directly back to Ningbo. One thing to mention is that the Luckin Coffee on Mount Putuo doesn't have the 9.9 deal, but the Luckin Coffee at the parking lot of Zhujiajian pier does. So, after coming down from the mountain, you can go have a drink. - After returning to Ningbo, we stayed for one night, visited the Drum Tower, ate the aforementioned seafood noodles, had coffee, and the temperature was just right these few days. The comfort of the small city was very pleasant. Ningbo is actually quite big, and next time I will plan to visit the surrounding areas of Ningbo, such as Fenghua, Xiangshan, and the reef beach.

Mount Putuo has arrived!

Buddha said: The quieter the heart, the deeper the blessing, the human heart is inherently unblemished, and the heart is naturally clear when it is quiet. A pure land, three pillars of fragrance, may all wishes be what you wish for!

As soon as it's served, you can smell the aroma from the pot, and the stir-frying is just perfect! It's super suitable with rice, and every clam is meaty. The signature crab is also delicious, with plump and rich crab meat, paired with fragrant scallion oil, it's simply too good to be true. Their garlic oysters are also good, with a firm and smooth texture. The vermicelli is soaked with the rich garlic-flavored soup, and one bite leaves a lasting impression! Zhoushan·Zhejiang is not just a journey, but also a spiritual cleansing. Looking forward to your visit, to dance with the sea and resonate with the wind!

Mount Putuo in Zhoushan, Zhejiang, is a mysterious and sacred Buddhist site, a pure land in the hearts of many

✅ There are three major temples on Mount Putuo: Puji Temple, Fayu Temple, and Huiri Temple on Buddha Top Mountain, as well as the must-visit South Sea Guanyin. Of course, there are also other less-known temples that you can visit if you have the time and energy. The incense tickets for Puji Temple, Fayu Temple, and Huiri Temple cost 5 RMB per person, and the South Sea Guanyin costs 6 RMB per person. Remember to prepare cash (only cash is accepted). 👉🏻 Puji Temple is the most complete and largest temple, and it is also the first stop for many worshippers. To attend the morning class at Puji Temple, you need to register at the temple's storeroom before 5 p.m. the previous evening. The fee for a class is 500 (1000 for important ceremonies), cash only, and you can write up to three people's names, as well as their lunar birthdays, addresses, and wishes. An additional 50 is charged for each extra person. The master will issue an incense invoice. The next day, you need to get up early and start lining up at the temple at 3:40 a.m. according to the invoice. The morning class starts at 4:30 a.m. and lasts for about 2 hours. You can follow the master in the main hall for the morning class, chanting sutras and worshipping Buddha. 👉🏻 Fayu Temple, the second largest temple on Mount Putuo, has a more tranquil environment compared to the bustling Puji Temple. There are a total of 7 main halls, and you can worship in each one in order. Like Puji Temple, you need to make a reservation for the morning class the day before, and ticket checking starts from 4:15 a.m., with the class beginning at 4:30 a.m. and lasting about two hours. There are significantly fewer people than at Puji Temple. I personally prefer Fayu Temple, which has a strong sense of history. It is said to be a royal temple, with glazed golden tiles that are very beautiful, and there is also an impressive Nine-Dragon Wall at the entrance. 👉🏻 Huiri Temple (Buddha Top Mountain) The third largest temple on Mount Putuo, located at an altitude of 291 meters on Buddha Top Mountain. You can take a cable car to get there. Huiri Temple has only three main halls, the most famous of which is the Guanyin Treasure Hall, where the Child-Sending Guanyin is enshrined. The morning class at Huiri Temple is from 4:00 to 5:10 a.m., and worshippers who attend the morning class need to stay in the temple the night before, so there is no ticket checking. If you are going from Fayu Temple to Buddha Top Mountain, you will take the Xiangyun Road, which is a stone path with 1087 steps. Many devout worshippers will bow every three steps and kowtow every nine steps on this road. 🎫: The peak season ticket is 160 RMB per person, and the off-season, which is December and January, is 120 RMB per person.

Shanghai-Putuo Mountain Trip (First time to Putuo Mountain)

🚗🚗🚗Travel Route: Day1: People's Square→South Bank Service Area-Supermarket→Hangzhou Bay Cross-sea Bridge→Zhujiajian Centipede Wharf→Cihang Hotel·Restaurant→Putuo Mountain Scenic Area→Putuo Mountain Xilei Xiaozhuang Day2: Putuo Mountain Scenic Area→33 meters high South Sea Guanyin Day3: Putuo Mountain Passenger Station→Zhujiajian Centipede Wharf→Hangzhou Bay Cross-sea Bridge→People's Square The first time to Putuo Mountain, self-driving. It takes nearly 4 hours to drive from Shanghai city to Zhujiajian in Zhoushan. On the way, you will pass the Hangzhou Bay Cross-sea Bridge, which is 36 kilometers long. There is also a bridge near Zhoushan that is 20 kilometers long. The Chinese are really good at building bridges👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Zhujiajian Wharf is like a small holiday village, with a farmhouse style and many restaurants. All are seafood. The price is not expensive. The cars are all parked here and cannot go to the island. It takes about 15 minutes to take a boat from the Centipede Wharf in Zhujiajian to Putuo Mountain. After getting off the boat, you can directly enter the Putuo Mountain Scenic Area. Putuo Mountain is a Buddhist holy land, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China. There are buses in the scenic area, but the fare is very expensive, starting at 5 yuan, and we took several times and it was 10 yuan. There are also many hotels and homestays in the scenic area, the price is more expensive, but it is very comfortable to live on the island. The scenery is very good. Ancient trees towering into the sky, blue sky and white clouds, surging waves. Although Putuo Mountain Scenic Area is a small mountain and not high, it is still a mountain, and there are many places inside that need to climb up and down, there are many places to climb stairs and slopes. Elderly people should be careful! It's exhausting. Just walk on flat ground. The return journey is the same way back. You still have to pass the Hangzhou Bay Cross-sea Bridge. This bridge has shortened the distance between Ningbo Zhoushan and Shanghai.

Mount Putuo

A pure land with three pillars of incense. When you think of it, you come to Mount Putuo. Putuoshan Scenic Area is located on the island, mainly consisting of Pujisi Temple, Huiji Temple, and Fayu Temple. Visitors need to take a boat to the island. Picture one is Guanyin's realm, not on the island but on Zhujiajian. If you arrange your itinerary, you can either go on the first day or the last day. We went on Monday and there weren't many people. There are many vegetarian restaurants on the island. Figure 9 is a guide that my friend found, and there is also the Jujube Tree Vegetarian Restaurant that many bloggers highly recommend. The taste feels average, maybe because personal tastes are different. When I went with two friends, they both said they were not used to it, but the service attitude was really good and enthusiastic. The entrance to their restaurant is not easy to find, so don't get lost because I also saw two restaurants with the same name outside, but they are fake. If you plan to go there, remember to wear comfortable shoes for walking. We walked a lot during the three days we were there, as there are no private cars on the island and you either have to take public transportation or walk. The weather forecast for Mount Putuo is very accurate, so you can check it before you go. It often rains there, so remember to bring rain gear. If you go to Zhujiajian, I highly recommend going to Ah Yong's food stall (they have two locations, both with equally delicious food). Their food is really tasty and cheap. The three of us ordered 67 dishes of seafood for only 200 yuan, and they even gave us a complimentary milk bun before the meal and a row of drinks after we paid. But the most important thing is that the food really tastes great, it's very delicious. This trip to Mount Putuo lasted for three days. While worshiping, I also appreciated their local customs. I also went to see Zhang Yimou's "Impression Putuo" with 360° rotating seats and 3D projection, which was very shocking. The plot was deeply moving. If you have time, I recommend going to see it. It's at the Zhujiajian Impression Putuo Theater. On the plane back home, I saw the whole sky above Mount Putuo covered in colorful clouds. It really felt like the Buddha's light was shining everywhere. If you feel suffocated by life or have a lot of thoughts and want to find a peaceful place, I recommend you go to Mount Putuo and feel it for yourself. Whisper your worries and troubles to the Bodhisattva in secret, only when you are alone can you become your true self.

This is putuo mountain in zhoushan where you can see a golden budha statue rise above the ground. It is quite a spiritual place, if you enjoy chinese archeology, you can definetely enjoy the history value of this place. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

Putuo Mountain Buddha, with his own efforts and sincerity, seek good results. Putuo Mountain is one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China. It is said to be super-excellent, so every day is full of good men and women to come to worship Buddha. Many people will ask, what should I ask for here? The symbol of Putuoshan is a bronze statue of Guanyin in the South China Sea, and the Zizhulin Scenic Area is the essence of Putuo Mountain, including Zizhulin Temple, refused to go to Guanyinyuan, Nanhai Guanyin Lifo and many other attractions. However, they all said that it is most effective to go to the Guanyin Buddha statue before noon, so there will be a lot of people in the morning. The temple is the most popular in the Puji Temple. The Guanyin is here, and there are eight temples seeking different wishes: Yuantongbao Temple, Bodhisattva is the body, Xu Dayuan; Puxian Temple, seeking work career; Filial filial piety; Pumen Hall, seeking marriage for the son; Wenshu Temple, seeking school; Jialan Temple, seeking Zhengcai; Sanzhou induction hall, to the heart of the magic to protect peace. Not far from the Fayu Temple, there is an attraction called Baibusha, Qianbu Sands; Huiji Temple is the highest point of the whole mountain, facing the Guanyin Bodhisattva on the front, and enshrining the white jade on the back. It is the most effective place for the child. . In addition to seeking Buddha, you can also eat vegetarian food in Puji Temple, you must pay attention to time, miss it. Breakfast 5

I always wanted to go to Putuoshan to see Guanyin, worship Buddha, eat a vegetarian meal, and let the soul be purified and baptized! Choose to leave in a busy time! Putuo Mountain is surrounded by the sea, beautiful scenery, unique and unique, known as "the first person clean." The mountain stone forest, the temple tower cliff carving, and the sound of the sacred sound are all full of the mysterious colors of the Buddha. The island is full of trees, ancient and wild, and the birds and flowers are known as the Island Botanical Garden. There are 66 species and 1221 trees in the whole mountain for more than 100 years. Not only the ancient millennium, but also the rare and endangered species unique to China, and the Putuo hornbeam, which is listed as a national first-class protected plant. Surrounded by golden sands and white waves, the island is surrounded by white sands, and the fishing and sails are competing.

The Putuo Mountain is a symbol of the Nanhai Guanyin bronze statue and the Zizhu forest, as well as the Xitian Scenic Area, which combines natural landscapes and temples. Every summer, the tourists who come to the summer heat have gathered in the first bathing beach in Zhejiang Province for a hundred steps of sand, which has added a beautiful landscape to Mount Putuo.
