is famous for its beautiful scenery and noted as the home to Chinese,
Korean and Japanese followers of the Tiantai Buddhist Sect. Among its
many Buddhist monasteries, Guoqing Monastery, built in 598 AD in the Sui
Dynasty, is the most famous one and home base of the Tiantai Sect. The
mountain is not very high, with its summit, Huadingfeng reaching only
1138m. The Red Stones of Chicheng, Shiliang Waterfall and Huadingfeng
are considered the best natural landscapes on the mountain.
