Global seekers dive into Taoist culture at Tianma peak in Hubei

As sunlight piercing through the mist and illuminating the forest at the Tianma peak in Shiyan, Central China's Hubei province, Alan from Ireland and six others faced the rising sun, adjusting their breathing and stretching their bodies.

This marked the beginning of their 15-day immersion in traditional Taoist culture.

A group of people from different countries, captivated by Chinese traditional culture, has journeyed to the Tianma peak in August.

The peak, as one of the 72 peaks of the Wudang Mountain, home to a famous complex of Taoist temples and monasteries, has attracted hundreds of foreigners from all walks of life since 2005, including corporate executives and film actors.
