## About Beiwudang Mountain

To distinguish it from Wudang Mountain in Hubei, it is called Beiwudang Mountain (North Wudang Mountain). It still preserves numerous Ming and Qing dynasty sites, as well as stone carvings and murals. Every year on the third day of the third lunar month, a traditional temple fair is held.
