廬山西林寺

What travelers say:

Hengcheng into the mountain side into the peak, far and near to see the mountains is always different. I don't know the true face of Lushan, I only live in this mountain. Su Yu Yu Shenzong Yuanfeng seven years (1084) from Huangzhou to Zhangzhou (now Henan Linyi) team training deputy envoy, when he went to Zhangzhou through Jiujiang, and visited Lushan with friends ginseng. The magnificent landscape triggered Yixing and Zhuang thought, so I wrote this poem about the trip to the mountains. Xilin Temple has been in full bloom from Jin to Tang, Yuan was burned by the soldiers, Ming Xiu was destroyed, and it has not been restored for a long time. In 1989, Jue Haifa from Taiwan returned to the mainland to visit relatives. Despite her age, she went to Donglin Temple to see the fruit of a mage, saying that she could not bear to see the deserted and snubbed Xilin Temple, and vowed to rebuild Xilin Temple. The idea of Jue Haifa was immediately agreed by government departments at all levels and Buddhist circles in Jiujiang City. From September 1989 to October 1996, the construction projects completed include: Temple of Heavenly Kings, Amitabha Temple, Dizang Temple, Guanyin Temple, Tibetan Temple, Dake Hall, Dazhai Hall, etc., and the temple has begun to take shape.
