Badachu

China, an East Asian country is one of the world’s oldest civilizations. It has a vast cultural history of more than five thousand years and an outstanding natural beauty. On the other hand, this country has remained a comparatively isolated and secluded one, and being a land of mystery, this country is not known to the western half of the world. However, China is rapidly developing and has grown in the phase of modernization, with an immense speed and is also welcoming the outer world to interact and do business with them.

About 20 kilometers south of the Fragrant Hills called as Xiangshan is Badachu which means Eight Great Sites. Eight former temples and monasteries are positioned on the slope of a hill and visitors can leisurely walk from one temple to another and enjoy the good looking scenery in the middle of old pine, willow, cypress and gingko trees. In the pagoda of the second temple, the Temple of the Sacred Light is a sacred historical object reputed to be a tooth of the Buddha. A latest addition to the area which provides quite a contrast to the traditional sites is the enjoyment ride known as Landsled. Visitors can make a payment to ride down aluminum tubes carved into the side of the mountain.

Badachu is definitely one of the popular tourist attractions in China. It is worth paying a visit while touring the country. This place will leave a pleasing and unforgettable memory and justify the proud cultural tradition of China.
