The small-scale
Buddhist temple has a fascinating landscape: to the west is the Zhanghe River
and rows upon rows of farmhouses can be seen from the other sides. The temple,
which was built during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), contains a stone tablet from
the period in the east bearing an illegible inscription. The temple's main hall
is square in shape that is three bays wide and deep. The open rooms in the
center are comparably large in size to the side rooms, which are about half the
size. This was a rarely arrangement among early constructions in China. The
temple's architectural style and its embossments reflect the typical
construction design of the Tang period.
