Mount Putuo in Zhejiang: Mount Putuo in Dinghai, Zhejiang, was originally named Mei Cen. Under the influence of Potalaka in the Avatamsaka Sutra, it was renamed "Mount Putuo". In ancient times, when my country traveled with Japan, Goryeo, Silla and other countries, they often used this island as a stopover to wait for good winds to set sail. In the 12th year of the Dazhong reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (858), Huie, a Japanese monk who came to China to seek Buddhist teachings, found a statue of Guanyin in Mount Wutai and wanted to bring it back to Japan for worship. Huie sailed out from Siming (in Ningbo, Zhejiang). When the ship passed the Zhoushan Islands, it was blocked from returning by strong winds and rough waves.
