Mount Wutai Scenic Area

Download poster

Mount Wutai is known for its five summits and the Buddhist temple complex around Taihuai Town. Visiting temple architecture and reaching the summits involve different routes. First-time visitors can choose key temples according to their available time rather than trying to fit all five summits into a single day. Reference photographs focus on temples in Taihuai Town and distant views. Follow on-site rules for religious activities and photography inside halls.
