Fódǐng Mountain

TIME : 2016/2/17 11:52:08

A lovely, shaded half-hour climb can be made up Fódǐng Mountain – Buddha’s Summit Peak – the highest point on the island. This is also where you will find the less elaborate Huìjì Temple . In summer the climb is much cooler in the late afternoon; watch devout pilgrims and Buddhist nuns stop every three steps to either bow or kneel in supplication. The less motivated take the cable car .

The Xiāngyún Pavilion (香云亭; Xiāngyún Tíng) is a pleasant spot for a breather.
