Long ranking among the most inspiring works of world literature, the poems of Hanshan (whose name means Cold Mountain), were written at least twelve centuries ago on trees, rocks, and walls by a semi-mythical Buddhist monk living in the mountains of south-eastern China

Hanshan (Author)
HANSHAN was traditionally thought to be a resclusive seventh-century
Buddhist monk who lived on a mountain in southeast China, writing his poems on rocks and trees. Current consensus is that the poems attributed to him were probably written by two or more people living in the early ninth century.
