About Liwubi Monastery
The small Tibetan Buddhist temple and its white stupa sit above the landing place, reached by an uphill island path. Trees screen parts of the route before openings reveal the surrounding water. This is a short island-and-temple visit that depends on a boat connection, with worship spaces requiring a quieter approach than the waterfront. Confirm the return sailing and available temple access before leaving the mainland.
What to look for
- The temple and white stupa form a religious group above the lake.
- The island path passes through trees before opening onto lake views.
