The local wudang tour guide explained to us where we'll be going to, strongly recommend you to get a local Wudang tour guide before going the Wudang mountain! You need a local person to guide you on mountain routes to the highest peak of Wudang


People are selling the red banners that use for praying, or just to give blessing, but they seems tired on shouting and attracting customer

crowded with our Ngee ann polytechnic students and on the way to tai zi po!



so many people there....


the walls are bended... I shot this photo and really like it a lot!

The local tour guide explained to us when the Emperor's son in yuan dynasty came to wudang to learn Taoism and decided to be a monk, the empress cried near the well here.

Translation: tai zi means 'prince', po means 'hill', direct translation tai zi po was the Emperor's son studying place at Wudang mountain when he came here for learning Taoism.


Yeah! I am infront of the century-old temple at tai zi po!!

Nice capture. Beautiful chinese character that engraved beside of the door of tai ze po's temple


Prayers and travellers put on their blessing with that red banners and tied on the trees


Very old stairs at tai zi po

Whoooo~~ look at the tree behind of me! This is SPRING time!

hahaa~ wei guang helped me to take a photos behind that 'fu' word

Flower blossoms and it is now the spring time

There are 4 paintings inside this shop, the guan yin, crane, the mei hua painting, and the mudan flower painting


tai zi po is huge and it is mainly made up by strong pillar with supprt the twelve beams, least nails.

very excellent painting on the wooden block, in the olden day, it wasn't easy to make out such beautiful colours of painting (and the colour is still well preserved!)

There were Wudang mountain discipline practising on wudang wushu, they are looked very exhausted on practising wushu, and yet their master hit their stomach if anyone make mistakes. So fierce!


There were crowds and people surrounding them wihle practising, but the tension from crowd will drive them nervous when practising their wushu show. You should actually move back and leave them some space.

Old folks and youngsters were waiting outside of temple beyond zi xiao gong to pray

The roof of those old, chinese charcterised building

I spoted this and quickly take a photo, dad and mom will sure like it alot!


Bells hang along with the mountains

This building was actually a double storey of palace but not many people notice it, there were 2 plaque written on fu mu tian chang and san qing ke, direct translation fu mu means 'parents', it was a plaque showing blessing to long live our parents


Super big and red lantern hanged on top the ceiling


It is so huge that I could reach the bottom!

Today we went to wudang mountain and it took us about 5-6 hours to reach there, it was very far from the city! Here it was raining in the morning the floor was wet and slippery. Luckily, when we reached the wudang mountain the rain stopped, and we could had our journey with better weather and dry safer road. We had been to the tai zi po and zi xiao gong today and strongly recommend you to hire a local wudang tour guide! Tomorrow we will be setting off to the peak of Wudang mountain, Jin Ling Ding, and it would be a 3 hours approx. stairs climbing to the peak, with leading from our tour guide. I must get ready for the mountain and reach the peak! I had showed the first day of Wudang mountain blog mostly with pictures because the scenery are just awesome! Read my self-reflections on the Day 20 of my wudang blog then!
