Residential buildings in the grand canyon in western Zhejiang

Most of the villagers in the Grand Canyon in western Zhejiang built their houses on the top of the mountain thousands of meters above the ground. In this section of Longjingxia, 12 administrative villages almost all live by the mountain. In the area of Longjinqiao Township in the Grand Canyon, most of the houses of local farmers are built on the top of the mountain with an absolute height difference of several hundred meters. Looking up from the bottom of the valley, we can see that these villages live by mountains, with white walls and tiles, which are often dazzled by white clouds, so they are called Baiyun people's homes, also known as "mountain people's homes". On Jianmenling, overlooking the village opposite the mountain, dozens of families are scattered on the top of the misty mountain, dotted with unique flavor. To build a house on the mountain, every brick and tree must be transported from the ground, but the villagers still enjoy it. Perhaps the scenery of the canyon is so beautiful that people would rather spend more time going up and down the mountain every day to see the streams and waterfalls flowing down here.

Buddhist culture

Lin 'an Buddhist culture has a long history. As early as when Buddhism was first introduced to China in the Western Han Dynasty, Indian monks went to Tianmu Mountain to give lectures. Tianmu Mountain is honored as the Dojo of Wei Tuo Bodhisattva, and there are many eminent monks in the past dynasties, which have far-reaching influence in Southeast Asia, especially in Japan.

The Buddhist culture of Tianmu Mountain in Lin 'an has a long history and is dazzling, with both Confucian and Taoist cultures. Zhang Daoling, a Taoist master in the Eastern Han Dynasty, was born in Tianmu Mountain and practiced here. Liang Daizhao, ming prince and Xiao Tong lived in seclusion in Taizi'an Scenic Resort Scenic Area and devoted themselves to studying classics.

Lin 'an's splendid Buddhist culture attracts Chinese and foreign tourists with its unique charm.
