Yuzhen Palace: Sacred taoist site [Video]

The ancient Yuzhen Palace is one of the most sacred site of Taoism. It was built by Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty some 600 years ago in a tribute to the mythical Taoist priest Zhang Sanfeng.
Yuzhen palace is the largest of all the Taoist temples on Wudang Mountain, one of China’s best known Taoist holy mountains. It is also the cradle of Wudang kungfu. In 1417, Emperor Zhudi decreed Wudang to be the "Grand Mountain" and ordered the construction of the Palace for Master Zhang Sanfeng. Located in central China’s Hubei Province, Wudang mountain is famous for its combination of natural and cultural scenery. It was listed by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site in 1994.
