History
The ancient history concealed in its name 'Stone Seer' reveals itself in the sacred stone formations of this place. This sanctuary nestled deep in the mountains has long served as a training ground where many monks have refined their bodies and spirits. The ritual fires of purification still burn today, cleansing the hearts and dispelling confusion from those who visit. The mystery woven by stone and flame possesses a power beyond words to describe.
