Introduction

The shaman pillar is located on the top of Shaman Mountain, where 13 shaman pillars are gathered, wrapped with colorful ribbons, symbolizing the believers' reverence for shamanism. These pillars represent 13 sons of God, and shamanic believers believe that God has 13 sons, among whom the eldest son will patrol the human world, heaven, and hell. When he comes to the human world, Shaman Mountain becomes his residence. Therefore, this place is considered extremely sacred.
