Xianggang Mountain—Wanshou Palace
In terms of Taoism, it mainly consists of a complex of halls dedicated to the commemoration of Xu Xun Zhenjun, a renowned Taoist figure from the Jin Dynasty; in terms of Buddhism, it primarily enshrines three deities: Guanyin, Ksitigarbha, and Skanda. With its beautiful scenery, it is a jewel among pilgrimage destinations between southeastern Jiangxi and the Fujian-Guangdong region, and is also a rare site in China where Taoist and Buddhist worship coexist. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, on the annual lunar date of the 19th day of the eighth month, worshippers and tourists flock to Xianggang Mountain’s Wanshou Palace without interruption.
