Mishan Island

蜜山岛

A Buddhist island on the southeast arm, home to Mishan Zen Temple, whose incense has been kept alive for a thousand years. From the summit you can see the islands of the southeast arm.

Mishan Island lies in the southeast arm. Before the reservoir was filled, it was the summit of Mount Mi. The Mishan Zen Temple on the island is traditionally said to date back to the Tang dynasty, and today it is a rebuilt temple complex. The island also has attractions such as the “Honey Spring.” The climb from the pier to the temple takes about 20 minutes, with views over the southeast arm along the way. It is usually visited together with Huangshanjian and Guihua Island as part of a southeast arm route, and the visit takes about an hour. Modest dress is expected.
