Baibusha is located in Puji Temple. It is the best place for surfing and watching the sunrise. It is also the best place to see the reclining Buddha Luojia Mountain on the sea.
In the middle of the beach, there is a small slope extending into the sea. On the slope, there is a small and exquisite pavilion called Shishi Pavilion. It is a great place for tourists to watch the sunrise, listen to the sound of the tide, and enjoy the sea breeze.
In summer, it is a good place to cool off. At night, the sea breeze blows gently and the air is fresh, making it a good place for tourists to take a cool walk.

Baibusha Beach is located east of Puji Temple and stretches over 600 meters from north to south. In the middle of the beach, there is a small slope that extends into the sea. There are giant rocks on the slope that resemble lions, the famous Teacher Stone, and the Zizai Pavilion next to it. The view from here is very good. However, part of the beach on the south side of the slope is closed, saying it is a sacred Buddhist site and is not open to visitors.
Baibusha is not far from Puji Temple. The waves are a bit big and not suitable for swimming.
Just an ordinary beach...nothing special
2010.10.5 When visiting various scenic spots in Putuo Mountain, you usually transfer at Baibusha.
Walking eastward from Puji Temple, you will reach Baibusha, a place with fine sand and a lot of mud.
Next to Puji Temple is Baibusha, which is very clean. The 1983 version of Journey to the West was filmed here.
It's a beautiful beach, although not very big.
The two larger beaches on the eastern coast of Putuo Scenic Area are Baibusha and Qianbusha. Walking up the mountain from Nantianmen Wharf, you'll first pass Baibusha and then Qianbusha. Baibusha has a clear entrance and is smaller, but it's more crowded. Qianbusha is longer, but without a clear entrance, making it harder to find and easy to miss.
A more beautiful place, compared with other beaches, it has a bit more ancient charm
I got up at five in the morning and went to Baibu Shashishi to watch the sunrise in the east, with brilliant morning glow filling the sky.
If you stay in Putuo Mountain, you can choose to take a walk on the beach in the evening.
We went for a walk around Baibusha. If you can swim, bring your swimsuit; Baibusha is open for swimming in the summer. We went during high tide. The soft sand beneath our feet, the waves crashing onto the shore, and the gentle breeze were quite relaxing.
Located on the seashore about 100 meters east of the pagoda, it stretches over 600 meters from north to south and 200 meters from east to west. It's named Baibusha, also known as Pagoda Front Sand, for its pure sand and beautiful beach formations, corresponding to Qianbusha Beach north of Chaoyang Cave.
The sand is relatively fine and soft, without any mud, and is quite comfortable to walk on.
Baibusha is over 600 meters long from north to south and over 200 meters wide from east to west. It corresponds to Qianbusha, located north of Chaoyang Cave, hence the name Baibusha, also known as Pagoda Front Sand. This was the filming location for the 1986 classic Journey to the West.
It was off-season when we went there, and there were only the two of us on the vast beach, and a monk praying facing the sea.
Watching the sea and listening to the waves is a great pleasure. The water is still quite yellow.
There was a rope on one side, saying it was a Buddhist area. On the other hand, there were more people on the other side. There was also a marked area for swimming, and there were lifeguards there, but swimming was not allowed at 6 o'clock.
It is very relaxing to walk barefoot on the beach or sit quietly for a while and listen to the sound of waves hitting.
It's not bad. It feels good to take off your shoes and walk on the sand. The sand is a bit hard! The feeling of the sea breeze blowing gently makes people feel comfortable.
A few hundred meters east of Duobao Pagoda is the Baibusha Scenic Area on the seashore. To its south are the Purple Bamboo Forest and Nantianmen.
The beach is very fine, a good place to play in the sand after watching the sea
Very suitable for a relaxing vacation, with clean and soft beaches and blue waters
If you go there in the summer, you'll just make dumplings...it's so hot it kills people
Although the sand in the sea water is not fine in summer, there are still quite a lot of people coming here to play in the water. However, I prefer the sunrise here. It is definitely worth missing a few hours of sleep to enjoy such a beautiful view.
Baibusha and Qianbusha are the two major beaches in Putuo Mountain. Many people visit here. It is suitable for watching sunrise and sunset.
The beach isn't particularly impressive. There's a small area dedicated to go-karts, and a small pavilion perched on the rocks overlooking the sea. I'm curious how that angler managed to avoid the management, haha.
, the sand is pure and the shape is beautiful. It is a natural beach.
The water is half seawater, which is not good compared with the water in Phuket and Sanya. However, the scenery is nice. There are high rocks and small pavilions, and some water entertainment, such as motorboats. It is not hot in summer and the sea breeze is very comfortable.
Behind the big rock that says "Turn Back is the Shore", there is something written in Sanskrit on the rock, but I don't know what it says.
The sand is not fine or white, so don't expect too much. I came here mainly for Mount Putuo, where many devout believers live.
After spending some time at the beach, it was time to move on, so I headed for Baibusha. Baibusha is located next to Puji Temple, and it's a great place to visit on your way there. It's not very large, only a few hundred meters long. There are plenty of recreational facilities, and many children are enjoying the beach, riding scooters, trampolines, and simply playing in the sand. I'd read a review saying there was only one entrance and exit, but there are actually two. I walked the entire length of the beach from the north entrance and exited from the south.
The beach is not long and you can't go into the water in winter, but the scenery is really nice
In Putuo Mountain, my favorite beach is the one where the sea and the sky meet, which is like a fairyland. It makes people feel relaxed and happy, and calm inside. Being able to walk alone on the beach is also a different kind of scenery, it is a kind of beauty.
Our second day in Putuo Mountain started at Puji Temple and continued along the Baibusha and Qianbusha beaches. We set off early in the morning, walking along the beach, feeling the soft sand and taking in the scenery. We walked slowly from Puji Temple to Fayu Temple, taking in photos and playing along the beach. It took less than an hour to reach Fayu Temple. I had no idea how fine the Baibusha sand in Putuo Mountain was.
The beach is pretty good. As someone who loves the sea, I am very happy with it.
This is the bluest sea I've seen in Zhejiang! It's truly the bluest I've ever seen, with the quicksand beneath my feet and the deep blue in the distance. This profile picture was taken here! There were lots of children playing, and the large, clean, and simple rocks on the beach created a truly beautiful scene where the sea and sky merged. Baibusha Beach isn't very large, and while it does have some recreational activities, it lacks the public facilities like changing rooms you'd find at a typical beach, so you'll need to be prepared beforehand. Enough said! The picture above is crucial!
The sand is very fine and feels very comfortable to step on. The sea is quite blue. There were not many people there at around 4pm. The sign said that the beach would close at 5pm, but no one cared and I stayed there until 5:30pm.
When I went there, there was a typhoon, so I didn't go in, but just looked at it from a distance. It is the filming location of the 1986 version of Journey to the West.
My favorite place to visit Putuo Mountain is here. Although the water here is not blue, just listening to the sound of the waves makes me feel very Zen. The most important thing is that you can take photos here 😂 and it seems that you can also surf. It is very nice to take a walk here after dinner or come here during the day. It was not crowded when I came, and it felt like the whole beach was contracted to me. There are also many rocks for you to climb.
In the Putuo Mountain Scenic Area, a Buddhist scenic area, it is rare to have such a beach with good sand quality. Many people are here.
My mom and I went on a trip together for the first time. It was a memorable one.
After worshipping Guanyin Buddha, I came to Baibusha, which made my mind more relaxed. You can swim on the beach here, and people who go there can bring their own swimsuits and slippers. Even if you don’t go swimming, it’s great to step on the waves and soak in the sea water.
It's not very big. A part of the sea area is fenced off and used as a Buddhist holy place. There weren't many people there on September 2nd. You can take off your shoes and socks, wade in the water, and write on the beach. The sea water is not clear. If the weather is good, you can see the mountains in the distance. The mind feels very vast. When taking pictures on the shore, you can find a place with a reflection. It feels good. The innermost part of Baibusha is the filming location of Journey to the West, but I don't know which scene it was.
Baibusha, located on the east side of Putuo Mountain, is its most famous beach. It's located between Chaoyang Pavilion and the Nanhai Guanyin Statue, offering a distant view of the latter. Baibusha is often crowded, and the beach is relatively long. The water is yellowish and a bit dirty, but children love playing in the sand, and adults enjoy walking along the edge. Baibusha has only one entrance and exit, on the north side, so after walking from the north to the south, you must return to the north to exit.
Burning incense and praying to Buddha is the first priority. After that, you can play in the beautiful Baibusha Beach. Although the sand and water are yellow, not as blue as the sea in Hainan, it is still very fun to play in the sand and water.
Children who play happily when seeing the sea and sand and adults who are afraid of being exposed to the sun and are fully armed
The beach at Putuo Mountain is really nice, with very fine sand. It doesn't sting your feet at all when you step on it. There are three beaches in Putuo Mountain, and I think Baibusha is the most beautiful of them all.
The season hasn't arrived yet, otherwise there would be a lot of people here. I had a lot of fun playing here alone and even picked up some shells to take back.
This beach is not very big. The so-called Hundred-Step Sand probably means that you can walk a hundred steps.
Baibusha looks very familiar. Later I learned that "Journey to the West" was filmed here. I guess the scene where the stone monkey appears in the first episode was shot here.
The sea in Putuo is actually very ordinary, the water is all yellow, but fortunately there are not many people, so it is very nice to walk and play on the beach.
When we went there, it was already closed. The waves were huge and the wind was strong. It was daunting to see such a sea. But to be honest, the water is not clean.
The sea water is much worse than that in Sanya. The wind and waves are also very strong when I go there, but the beach is very fine and there are not many people on the beach. The temperature is a little lower and the wind and waves are also strong.
The sand is golden, pure and soft. People can walk barefoot, play with the waves and sand, and let the waves caress their feet; or sit quietly on the beach to take a rest, listen to the sound of the waves, and feel at ease.
You can see it after walking for a while into Putuo! You can play! It was cloudy when we went there, and occasionally there was a little sunshine, and it really felt like the Buddha's light was shining!
Don’t have high expectations for the sea water over there, it’s basically this color!
On the other side of the bamboo forest is Baibusha Beach. Walking through the lush bamboo forest, occasionally gusting with the distant sea breeze, although the walk is tiring, it is also very pleasant.
When you are tired, face the sea, look into the past, and you will have the strength to move on.
Baibusha is great. The water is quite dirty, but it's still great to play in the waves in the summer! It's endless and the sand is very soft.
Enjoying the sunset bathing in the lush mountain trails, breathing hard, I felt that the carbon dioxide I exhaled was particularly fresh~~~
When it's hot in the summer here, you can go into the sea and play. Now it's relatively cool. I walked barefoot on the beach. The sand was very fine and very comfortable. The waves hit my feet from time to time. It felt very comfortable. Two old people climbed up to the pavilion on the high ground to rest. I relaxed by myself on the beach. There were many small springtails on the rocks on the beach. I don't know what they are called. I am very afraid of insects. There was a small pool next to it. I washed my feet, put on shoes, and went up to the pavilion. Standing on the high ground, I felt different.
It was so relaxing to take a walk on the beach in the evening. So I went back to my residence to rest. After dinner, I walked around the village again and met an old man from Shanghai. He had been on the island since he was about four or five years old. He told me stories from the past. Today, the island no longer belongs to Putuo Mountain, but to all mankind. There are really a lot of people coming here.
After leaving Puji Temple, we walked to Baibusha, which is a beach with pure sand and rough sea. The scenery is magnificent, but the sea water is not blue.
I chose to walk along the beach just to see the beautiful Baibu Sand Beach in front. I remember that I could walk here when I came here last year, but now it is blocked for some reason.
Baibusha Beach boasts pure sand, a beautiful beach, and stunning scenery. While the coastline here stretches far longer than a hundred steps, it's called Baibusha simply to contrast with Qianbusha Beach north of Chaoyang Cave. Because the Duobao Pagoda is just to the east, it's also known as Pagoda Front Sand. This is the most beautiful beach on Putuo Mountain and is highly recommended. Don't miss this spot, even if you skip Qianbusha.
Unfortunately, the water here is a bit yellowish and can't be called beautiful, but the scene of the water and sky meeting each other still makes me feel much more relaxed.
There is a beach in front of Nanhai Guanyin. Not many people go into the water to play, so you can step in the water and enjoy the sea.
2014.09
Due to the wind and waves, we couldn't walk to the beach and could only watch from a distance, but the scenery was nice.
Although the water in Baibusha Bathing Beach is very turbid, the sand is very soft and the scenery is nice.
The sea water is not very cold in this season, and the beach here is still quite soft, and it feels very comfortable to walk on it barefoot.
The sand in Baibusha is quite clean and there are many tourists. It is close to Nanhai Guanyin Temple and Puji Temple.
The sand is perfect for writing, and the beach is beautiful at sunset.
The sand is very fine and yellow, and the sea water is very calm with few waves.
Baibusha~Since we didn't get off the bus early, we had to end up here~The previous stop was Qianbusha~
The construction of Baibusha Sea Ice Bathing Beach began in the 23rd year of the Republic of China. The current Baibusha Bathing Beach was invested and expanded by the Putuoshan Administration in 1982. After years of construction, the various facilities of Baibusha Bathing Beach have become increasingly complete. The current Baibusha Bathing Beach has become the most famous seaside bathing beach in Zhejiang Province.
Baibusha Beach, located over 100 meters from Pagoda Hill, is also known as Pagoda Front Sand. It corresponds to Qianbusha Beach north of Chaoyang Cave. Baibusha Beach is a coastal sedimentary landform composed primarily of quartz. The beach is approximately 200 meters wide from east to west and 600 meters long from north to south, with a gentle slope and beautifully shaped sand. The sand is soft, cool, and pure, and the waves are surging.
I originally thought that I went to Putuo Mountain just to worship Guanyin, but I found out there is such a beach, which is not inferior to Nansha and Dongsha. It is worth recommending.
There are also many entertainment activities on the Baibusha beach.
It is said to be the filming scene of Journey to the West, the scenery is beautiful
Baibusha feels similar to Qianbusha, but is smaller and has more people. Unlike Qianbusha, there are few people in the vast sea area.
It's very close to Fayu Temple. Even at the end of February, the weather was still quite cold, so the beach was sparsely populated, so you didn't have to worry about a crowded background. The sand was very fine, and if it weren't so cold, it would be nice to walk on the beach in slippers. The water here isn't very clear; the East China Sea isn't deep and is silty, giving it a yellowish hue. Plus, the greenery on the hillside hasn't grown yet, so the scenery at this time is just average.
