It is said that Jiang Taigong, Zhao Zilong and Zhu Yuanzhang once left footprints and beautiful legends here. The Taiyu mountain and Chuidi mountain in the garden got their names. During the reign of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty, Yunyan temple was built on Taiyu mountain, which is as famous as Baotong temple and Jiufeng temple. It is said that it is large-scale and fragrant.
