The first stop for the New Year! Hiking and praying at Jing Mountain Zen Temple in Hangzhou
As the countdown to 2024 begins, a new year is upon us. It's a year to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, a year to heal from old ailments. Accompanied by a large family, we climbed the mountain to pray at the top. The Chinese people really love the scent of temples. There are endless streams of people going up and down the mountain. I hope everyone has a healthy, happy, and smooth new year❤️
