摘要
以朝拜真武神为目的的武当山朝香活动至迟兴起于宋代,经过元代的发展,到明代已成为具有全国性影响的风俗,其规模和影响足以与五岳之首的泰山相媲美。清代以后,民间仍盛行朝武当的风俗,但香客的人数与地域来源已不能与明代鼎盛时期相比,朝山进香已呈衰减之势。武当山朝香风俗的历史与武当山历史地位的变化、道教真武神信仰的兴衰、武当道教的影响等因素息息相关。

In the Qing Dynasty, the mountain lost these titles, its statue declined and the influence on the regional communities was carried only through the pilgrimage.
