The Wudang Mountains, also known as Wu Tang Shan or simply Wudang,
are a small mountain range in the Hubei province of China,
just to the south of the manufacturing city of Shiyan.
In years past, the mountains of Wudang were known for the many Taoist
monasteries to be found there, monasteries which became known as an academic
centre for the research, teaching and practise of meditation, Chinese martial
arts, traditional Chinese medicine, Taoist agriculture practises and related
arts. As early as the Eastern Han Dynasty (25–220 AD), the mountain attracted the
Emperor's attention. During the Tang Dynasty (618–907), the first site of worship—the
Five Dragon Temple—was constructed. The monasteries were emptied, damaged and then
neglected during and after the Cultural Revolution of 1966–1976, but the Wudang mountains
have lately become increasingly popular with tourists from elsewhere in China and abroad
due to their scenic location and historical interest. The monasteries and buildings were made
a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. The palaces and temples in Wudang, which was
built as an organized complex during the Ming Dynasty (14th–17th centuries), contains
Taoist buildings from as early as the 7th century. It represents the highest standards of
Chinese art and architecture over a period of nearly 1,000 years. Noted temples include
the Golden Hall, Nanyan Temple and the Purple Cloud Temple.
