Shizhu Mountain is located in Honglu County, Fuqing, a county-level city administrated by Fuzhou. It is a major attraction in Fujian Province and has been officially listed as an intangible cultural heritage.

The name Shizhu, which means stone and bamboo in Chinese, comes from the mountain’s bizarre rock formations and beautiful bamboo. Although it is a Taoist Holy Mountain, it is home to all three dominant religions in China: Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. The mountain has 128 scenic spots, featuring temples, caves, stones and towers, among which, Shizhu Temple, Lion Rock and Ziyun Cave and Ziyun Tower are the most impressive.

Admission: 25 yuan (US$4.08) / person
