I snuck across the border into Burma on a dare. Yeah, what’re you gonna do about it?
A plethora of peoples, staring at me. Lots of signs I couldn’t make heads or tails of, in Burmese. Wonderful Buddhist temples and young monks doing work. The woven straw huts and jungle foliage.
If only I had more than one day!
over 5 years agoHeng Shan is a town in Hunan province, southwest of Changsha, named after the mountain it is near. Heng Shan (the mountain) is one of five sacred Daoist mountains in China, and the farthest one south. The mountain itself has temples all up and down it — Confucian, Daoist, Buddhist. The highest peak, ZhuRong, is quite a sight. Looking down into mist-covered valleys, like bowls of steaming rice milk…
The base of the mountain has an old famous temple (or series of temples, actually) in the NanYue section of town. It is called NanYue Da Miao — Nan Yue Big Temple. The temples were quite a sight. Other than that, Heng Shan is a small town in a rural area. And I don’t think they see many foreigners (one child who saw me jumped and ran and hid behind the door to her apartment, carefully peering out at the strange big-eyed, big-nosed giant creature before her).
