The orange roof and white temple body can be seen from a distance against the backdrop of lush green mountains. Due to its elevated position, it is also the best spot to overlook the Laonong River. The temple was founded by Master Guangqin, who, along with all the disciples of the mountain, developed the originally desolate area. Today, the temple's appearance is majestic, the halls are solemn, and the carefully tended flowers and trees flourish, making the entire temple resemble a pure land. On holidays or during the seventh month of the lunar calendar, countless worshipers ascend the mountain to pay their respects.
