Visiting the Heng Mountains[8]

The Heng Mountains with clouds and ridges, where is
     the Way,[9]
The ancient Daoist temple with a long history, tourists come;
Ordinary people don’t know the wonder in the mystical,
They use the ancient temple to make dirty money.

[8]The Heng Mountains, located in the northern part of Shanxi Province and northeastern part of Hebei Province, are among the five most famous mountains in China. The Yanmen Pass is on the west side. It is said that the venerable Zhang Guo, one of the well-known eight deities in China, cultivated Dao in the Heng Mountains. The Hanging Temple is in the Heng Mountains.

[9]“Way” is translated from the word 道, which means both road and Dao.
