A great place to make a wish and burn incense—Anxi Qing Shui Yan.

There are many folk beliefs in southern Fujian. Yesterday, I learned about the "Sea God" Mazu culture of Shantan, and the "God of Medicine" Baosheng Dadi, who is said to cure diseases and save lives. Today, I visited the Qing Shui Yan Scenic Area, which is the "Rain God" Qing Shui Zushi's dojo. Qing Shui Zushi, whose dharma name is Puzu, was a monk in the Song Dynasty. After his death, he was worshiped as a deity. I drove directly to the underground parking lot. After coming out, I could see Penglai Town from the platform. The town is sandwiched between mountains. I didn't realize how many mountains there are in Fujian until I came here. The weather was just right today, not too hot or cold. The thin clouds revealed a refreshing blue sky. The "Emperor" shaped Qing Shui Yan Temple looked even more beautiful and unique among the green mountains and rivers. The colorful, exquisitely patterned, and detailed glazed decorations were stunning. The incense here is very popular. In similar places I've visited before, there were mostly tourists, but here, almost all the visitors were locals of all ages. Everyone comes to worship.
