Mount Putuo
Mount Putuo () is an island southeast of Shanghai, in Zhoushan prefecture of Zhejiang province, China. It is a renowned site in Chinese Buddhism, and is considered the bodhimanda of Avalokitesvara (Guanyin), a revered Bodhisattva in many parts of East Asia. Mount Putuo is one of the four sacred mountains in Chinese Buddhism, the others being Mount Wutai, Mount Jiuhua, and Mount Emei (Bodhimandas for Manjusri, Ksitigarbha, and Samantabhadra, respectively). Mount Putuo lies on Eastern Sea of China and displays the beauty between sea and mountain. The area is about 12.5 square kilometers and has many famous and sacred temples. Every year on February 19, June 19, and September 19 of the lunar calendar, it welcomes millions of people for the celebration of the birth of Guanyin, being a monk and being bodhisattva respectively.

The site has received numerous renowned visitors over the ages, including the then 20-year-old future Chan-master Yinyuan Longqi (Igen), who came to the site in 1612, while looking for his father, who had disappeared fifteen years earlier. The modern scholar monk Taixu spent several years in solitary retreat at a small hermitage in Putuo.
