There used to be towering old trees here, and the shade covered the sun. The lintel of the ancient temple is engraved with the words "Tianmen Xianshan", and the couplets on both sides of the gate read: "There is day and night outside, but there is no lonely mountain inside", which is said to be written by the Ministry of Li Zicheng. The entrance is the Great Buddha Hall, followed by Kannonji, with six bungalows on both sides, and the last one is the ancestral hall, which is huge in scale. The folk summary is that "three halls and six rooms, brick walls and iron tiles are like pots". The original building of the Mountain Temple is very beautiful, with cornices and horns, carved dragons and painted phoenixes, and statues of Buddha, Taoism and Bodhisattva. There are also drums, clocks, seven-level stone pagodas and Dahua money stoves.
