Summary: Both the Sanzu Zen Temple and the nearby Valley Stream require admission fees. It is recommended to contact local guides who can take you directly in. The day I went, the Sanzu Zen Temple was holding a major temple fair so it was free. The temple is very popular, the Daxiong Hall behind is still under renovation, and the Jueji Tower on the top of the mountain is spectacular. The Valley Stream next to the Sanzu Zen Temple has the most stone carvings from the Tang Dynasty to the Republic of China, and there are also rare sun-engraved pictures. Although the scenic area is not large, it is also rated as a 5A-level scenic area.
