Outside the original Puhui Nunnery (now Putuo Mountain Sanatorium), there is an ancient camphor tree with a tree age of more than a thousand years. This is the famous ‘millennium ancient camphor tree’ on Putuo Mountain. After thousands of years of vicissitudes, it is still lush and dense, with branches and leaves like a canopy.


If you come to see it, you will find that there are many red ribbons hanging on its branches. Originally, these are all offered by people with a heart for praying. Nowadays, praying under the ancient camphor tree on Putuo Mountain has become a culture and custom, attracting predestined people from all over.


Opening hours: Open all year round from 6:20 to 21:50.
