Emei Shan, Sichuan, Part2 - China Travel Channel
The Wannian Temple is the oldest surviving temple on Mount. Emei. Among the over 200 temples that existed at one time, only 20 still remain today. The rest were mainly destroyed during the Cultural Revolution.
The 3099 m high Mount Emei, also called Da Guang Ming Shan (Mountain of Great Light), is in the central Chinese province of Sichuan. The Wannian Temple is a little different than other temples.
Also known as the Temple of Eternity, or actually the Temple of 10,000 Years, since 10,000 is the highest number in the Chinese numerical system, the Wannian Temple demonstrates strong Indian influences. The Wannian Temple was originally called Puxian- or Samantabhadra-Temple. The bronze statue of the bodhisattva Puxian, placed upon a life-sized elephant with 6 teeth, towers above the landscape of this magnificent garden temple.
The statue of Puxian dates back to the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1112), is 3.64 m tall and weighs 62 tons.

Der Wannian Tempel ist der älteste Tempel am Emei-Berg, der bis heute überlebt hat.
Der 3099 m hohe Emei Berg, auch Da Guang Ming Shan (Berg des großen Lichts) genannt, liegt in der mittelchinesischen Provinz Sichuan. Von den einst über 200 Tempel am Emei Shan in Sichuan, China, sind nur noch etwa 20 erhalten der Rest wurde hauptsächlich während der Kulturrevolution zerstört.
Etwas aus der Reihe sticht der Wannian-Tempel - Tempel der Ewigkeit, eigentlich der 10.000 Jahre, höchste Zahl im chinesischen Zahlensystem, gleichbedeutend mit ewig -, da er starke indische Einflüsse aufweist. Der Wannian Tempel wurde ursprünglich Puxian- oder Samantabhadra-Tempel genannt. Die auf einem lebensgroßen Elefanten mit sechs Zähnen sitzende Bronzestatue des Bodhisattwa Puxian überragt die Landschaft dieses großartigen Gartentempels.
Die Statue von Puxian stammt aus der Nördlichen Song-Dynastie (960-1112), ist 3,64m hoch und wiegt 62 Tonnen.

The slopes of Emei Shan have been inhabited since as early as 10,000 years ago. It was originally a Taoist retreat.
Pugong, a medicinal plant farmer, built the Puguang Hall on the Golden Summit in the 1st century AD. In the 3rd century, the Puxian form of Buddhism (which centers on devotion to the Bodhisattva Puxian, or Samantabhadra) became dominant on Emei and the Chinese monk Huichi built the Puxian Temple (now the Wannian Temple) at the foot of the Guanxinpo Terrace.
In the mid-9th century, the Song Emperor Zhao Kuangyin sent a Buddhist mission headed by Master Jiye to India. On his return he was authorized to build temples on Mount Emei, where he preached and translated the
Indian Buddhist texts. He was also authorized to cast a Puxian bronze statue, 62 tonnes in weight and 7.85 m high, now in the Wannian Temple.
Ever since, Mount Emei has been one of the most holy places of Buddhism. Extensive rebuilding during the Ming dynasty finally converted most of Emei's Taoist temples to Buddhism.
The natural beauty and sacred significance of Emei Shan has been drawing pilgrims and tourists for 2,000 years. It was designated a World Heritage Site in 1996.
What to See at Emei Shan
Emei Shan literally means Delicate Eyebrow Mountain — it derives its name from two peaks which face each other and look like the delicate eyebrows of a Chinese classic beauty.
Emei Shan is a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring many temples, natural wonders and breathtaking scenery. The slopes incorporate several different climates and much wildlife, especially birds and trees. Some of the trees are more than 1,000 years old.
There are also monkeys, who are accustomed to tourists and assertive; they aren't dangerious but will beg for food and grab at bags as hikers walk along the trails. Many hikers carry walking sticks to shoo them away.
There are over 30 Buddhist temples on Emei Shan, 10 of which are large and very old. They are considered masterpieces of creative ingenuity in the way they adapt to the natural enviroment and beauty of the holy mountain.
At the mountain base is Baoguo Monastery, built in the 16th century. The monastery has serene gardens with rare plants, a library of sutras and a huge porcelain Buddha. In the stone staircase of the rear hall are figures of the Eight Immortals, betraying the temple's Taoist origins.
Further up the mountain lies the Crouching Tiger Monastery (Fuhu Si), Emei's largest temple. Once associated with the Taoist martial-arts master Zhang Sanfeng, today it is a Guanyin nunnery. Notable features include the 16th-century, 7m-high bronze Huayan Pagoda, which is engraved with 4700 Buddha images.
The Qingyin Pavilion, built against the mountainside at the foot of the Niuxin Ridge, is an ensemble of pavilions, towers, and platforms, the earliest dating from the early 6th century. Its location and the streams that run through it have earned it the name “The Mountain Garden.”
A few hours' walk or a cable car ride leads to the Golden Summit(Jinding), at 3077m. There are two temples here (the friendly Woyun Nunnery and the large Huazang Si) and thousands of padlocks inscribed with couples' names to symbolize eternal love.
Huazang Si on Jinding was founded as early as the 1st century as the Puguang Hall, later becoming the Guangxiang Temple and receiving its present royal name in 1614. It was extensively rebuilt and refurnished in the 1970s, but every effort was made to preserve its original appearance.
Jinding is the best place to experience the Four Wonders of Mt. Emei: the Buddha's Halo (rainbow-like rings that surround and move with your shadow), the Sea of Clouds, the Holy Lamp (or Divine Lights) and the Golden Summit Sunrise.
From the Golden Summit you can ride a monorail along the ridge to Wanfoding (Ten Thousand Buddha Summit), the true summit of Emei Shan.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR 2013 (Mount Emei, China) - A Rorne Tan Documentary Film 2013
MOUNT EMEI, CHINA (FULL VERSION)
Filmed, Directed & Edited by Rorne Tan (January 2013)
This is the final version of the documentary film. Incorporating the famous song sang by the late Teresa Teng called Moon Represent My Heart. This is a short film depicting how a man misses his wife and daughter who had passed away 3 years ago by climbing to the summit of Mount Emei just to fantasize being with them again. I had wanted to edit this scene for a long time. A beautiful sad family story blending with its surrounding unesco world heritage site, Mount Emei in China. Rising at more than 10,000 ft above sea level, no wonder most tourists said it is a heavenly place to visit. A great song to illustrate how chinese people love their loved ones and live like there is no tomorrow. Enjoy the show.
By the way, HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR 2013 !!!

Hongkong, Wong Tai Sin Temple - China Travel Channel
The Wong Tai Sin Temple (Chinese: 黄大仙 祠) is a picturesque Taoist temple amidst huge apartment buildings in Kowloon, Hong Kong. It is dedicated to Taoist monk Won Tai Sin. Also described as immortal Wong, the monk was able to look into the future and had healing powers. The foundation stone for the temple was laid in the early 20th Century by Leung Renyan, a small shopkeeper for medical needs.
Today it is one of the most visited temples in Hong Kong. We were impressed how few the people feel bothered by the attending crowds, in their prayers and meditation.
The temple complex includes the beautiful Good Wish Garden.
The temple is easily accessible by the subway. It is just 200 meters from the Wong Tai Sin MTR Station and opens daily from 7:00 - 17:00 clock.

Der Wong Tai Sin Tempel (chines. 黃大仙祠), ein malerischer daoistischer Tempel liegt inmitten riesiger Wohnblocks in Kowloon, Hongkong.
Er ist dem daostischen Mönch Won Tai Sin geweiht. Auch als unsterblicher Wong bezeichnet, konnte der Mönch in die Zukunft schauen und verfügte über heilende Kräfte.
Der Grundstein für den Tempel wurden im frühen 20. Jahrhundert von Leung Renyan, einem kleinen Ladenbesitzer für medizinischen Bedarf, gegründet. Heute zählt er zu den meistbesuchten Tempel in Hongkong. Beeindruckt hat uns, wie wenig sich die Gläubigen von den anwesenden Menschenmengen in ihrer Andacht und Meditation stören lassen.
Zur Tempelanlage gehört auch der wunderschön angelegte Garten der guten Wünsche.
Der Wong Tai Sin Tempel ist auch bequem mit der U-Bahn zu erreichen. Er liegt nur 200 Meter von der Wong Tai Sin MTR Station entfernt und ist täglich von 7:00 - 17:00 Uhr geöffnet.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
