Wisdom Path

Back in 2002, a donation of original calligraphy featuring the Prajna Paramita Hrdaya Sutra (Heart Sutra) was made by Professor Jao Tsung-I, a well-known master with profound knowledge in both academic research and art. He wished to have the calligraphy transformed into an outdoor, large-scale carving, thus leading to what we know today as the Wisdom Path. It is a scenic trail lined with 38 wooden pillars etched with the Heart Sutra prayer, located on a slope at the foot of Lantau Peak near Ngong Ping, Lantau Island. Not only does it offer breathtaking sea views, but the tranquil environment also enables you to take in the city’s restful atmosphere.
