The Flaming Mountain is very popular thanks to a classical novel, The Journey to the West by the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) writer, Wu Cheng'en and its charming hero-- The Monkey King.

In the Han account of the legend, it is said the Monkey King stirred up trouble in Heaven and kicked off the oven for making immortal pills. Charcoals fell from the sky to where the Flaming Mountain now lies-- in the middle of Turpan Basin.

According to the Uigur version, a vicious dragon lived in deep Tianshan Mountain and ate little children. A Uigur hero fought gallantly against the dragon for three days and three nights and cut the dragon into eight parts. The remains of the dragon turned to a scarlet mountain colored by its blood. The eight scars turned into the eight valleys in the Flaming Mountain, including the famous Grape Valley.

The building is not a Muslim shrine but a visitor center of the flaming mountain HuoYan-Shan in Chinese and Keziletage (Red Mt.) in Uigur

An interesting issue Thanh!

Normal people are eating animals; Vegetarians are eating the animal's food.
How is crueler?

Just an hour ago three missiles coming from Lebanon missed my home by 2 miles (killing no one fortunately) while I'm seating at home writing a guide book about "traveling in Lebanon", all in the name of god. So eating dogs is the least of the brutality that the human kind is doing.

It's for sure the most brutal animal of all kind – killing for ideology and not just for food.

Have a nice week.

The Thai-Dam (black Thai) are not native in Luang-Prabang.
Just the tourism is their motivation to go south to the city.
