culture

Based at 华山 (Mount Hua) in Shaanxi, the western of China's Five Sacred Mountains. In Jin Yong's《笑傲江湖》the famous 气宗-剑宗 ('Qi school vs Sword school') schism drives the plot — a classic allegory for internal-vs-external and form-vs-freedom debates. The protagonist Linghu Chong is a Huashan disciple.
