Temple recommendations.

There are very few ancient buildings that still exist on a large scale. However, Beizhen Temple at the foot of Yiwulü Mountain was once glorious due to the worship of successive Qing emperors, and it has also left a treasure trove of Zhenshan culture. The poem "I set off from Taiyi in the morning, and arrived at Yiwulü in the evening" by the great doctor San Chuang made Yiwulü Mountain in Youzhou a synonym for the ends of the earth. Beizhen Temple is a national third-class temple, and the existing buildings are relics of the Ming and Qing dynasties. The extraordinary thing about this temple is that it is the only remaining ancient building among the five Zhenshan temples, and the huge number of stone inscriptions is rare in the northeast. The mountain gate has three rooms and a single-eave hip roof. The plaque in the middle of the gate is said to be written by Yan Song. There are four stone lions around the archway outside the mountain gate, each with a different expression, which is quite interesting. Passing through the Shenma Hall, you can see four stele pavilions lined up in a row. These four stele pavilions contain four imperial steles from the Qing Dynasty, which are witnesses of the sacrifices made by the three Qing emperors, Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong, to Beizhen Mountain. However, the stele pavilions were severely damaged, and the stone steles inside were also broken in the 1970s, and the handwriting is slightly scattered. In front of the Imperial Incense Hall facing the stele pavilion, there are many stone inscriptions, most of which are written by Emperor Qianlong, and some are from the Kangxi period. However, the themes are quite unified, all of which are poems praising the god Guangning King of Yiwulü Mountain. The Qing emperors believed that the Jianzhou Jurchens could not have entered the pass without the protection of Beizhen Mountain. It is understandable that Emperor Taizu of the Qing Dynasty once served under Li Rusong in Guangning City and had a generational admiration for this famous mountain. Not only were the three emperors Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong fond of their hometown Beizhen Mountain, but even Jiaqing and Daoguang also left stone inscriptions on Yiwulü Mountain.
